bobzyeruncle 5th Dec 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Band - Music From Big Pink (1968) | The 'The' is superfluous to the album title.
Anyone else think "Chest Fever" sounds uncannily like Traffic?
|
bobzyeruncle 1st Dec 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumBig Star - Radio City (1974) | "O My Soul" is mono on this and all subsequent releases.
|
bobzyeruncle 1st Dec 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Big Three - Cavern Stomp (1982) | Ahh. That makes a bit more sense! :laugh:
|
bobzyeruncle 30th Nov 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumJosé José - Amor Amor (1980) | Thought that was Sid Vicious when I clicked on the thumbnail!
|
bobzyeruncle 30th Nov 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Deviants - Disposable (1968) | A6 still a favourite on my old mixtapes and that aborted attempt at starting a pirate radio station.
RIP Mick. Still miss ya like hell.
|
bobzyeruncle 30th Nov 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Big Three - Cavern Stomp (1982) | Would be helpful for any Scousers out there to translate Georges' slightly obscure etching on the A side. Cheers, in advance! :laugh:
|
bobzyeruncle 30th Nov 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumBread - The Sound Of Bread (1977) | Virtually the same (excellent) tracklisting as the later "Anthology" compilation.
|
bobzyeruncle 24th Nov 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumUtopia - Deface The Music (1980) | Still my favourite Utopia album. (I know, I know) :laugh:
|
bobzyeruncle 23rd Nov 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumGimmer Nicholson - Christoper Idylls (1981) | This was what got released in its' place.
|
bobzyeruncle 23rd Nov 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumMaria Callas - Dallas Rehearsal 11/20/57 ... Tosca (Act 2-Abridged) 2/9/64 | This is in fact one of the early American concert bootleg LPs. Long before R&R ended up on clandestine vinyl, Opera and Jazz fans were collecting these as a guilty pleasure.
|
bobzyeruncle 23rd Nov 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumBenny Hill - Benny Hill Sings Ernie The Fastest Milkman In The West (1972) | Capitol must have kept the stampers for those made in USA pressings. :laugh: "Words & Music" was released on the budget green label many years later to capitalise on Benny's success on American television.
|
bobzyeruncle 20th Nov 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Beatles - Revolver (1966) | Robert Whittaker's photo on the sleeve back is a 'candid' taken during the filming of the "Paperback Writer"/"Rain" promo video shoot. Not mentioned much, for some odd reason.
|
bobzyeruncle 20th Nov 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Norman Luboff Choir - Grand Tour (1962) | Had read about that. Wonderful story. Not everybody is lucky enough to find their soulmate.
|
bobzyeruncle 20th Nov 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumStevie Wonder - Innervisions (1973) | Would love to know what info was etched into the run-off.
The typesetting looks vaguely Capitol, but the wide ring around it looks almost like a CBS pressing.
|
bobzyeruncle 19th Nov 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumBeatfools - Shake (1990) | I mistakenly read the band's name as Beatroots, which would also be a good name for a band. It's probably a 'bindun' though!
|
bobzyeruncle 19th Nov 2013 | | Vinyl Album[no artist listed] - Top Of The Pops | And coincidentally, that's also the case with a lot of the smaller Israeli labels sleeves as well.
I think we've nailed it down to two, but would go with your expertise over mine.
|
bobzyeruncle 19th Nov 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Norman Luboff Choir - Grand Tour (1962) | That was the gist of my smart-a***d remark. :laugh:
On a slightly more serious note, do we have an option for combining discogs from artists who have changed name/gender/both?
|
bobzyeruncle 18th Nov 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Norman Luboff Choir - Grand Tour (1962) | ..and coincidentally Angela Morley, uncredited.
|
bobzyeruncle 18th Nov 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumYes - Fragile (1971) | Wasn't this one of the last 'pre-Kinney' Atlantics?
|
bobzyeruncle 18th Nov 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumElectric Light Orchestra - Face The Music | Sure is!
Korean, in this case.
|
bobzyeruncle 18th Nov 2013 | | Vinyl Album[no artist listed] - Top Of The Pops | Hadn't thought of Portugal. (The plot thickens.) :wink:
|
bobzyeruncle 17th Nov 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Animated Egg - Psychedelic Sound (1969) | One from the Somerset/Alshire catalogue in the U.S. Sought after by collectors of Lounge/Psych. Not sure where it was recorded, but Miller did make extensive use of European orchestras for the 101 Strings LPs.
|
bobzyeruncle 17th Nov 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Who - My Generation / Magic Bus | It gets a bit confusing, but MCA's Stateside address was used on both Canadian and Australian releases. Definitely belongs in the Canadian listings.
|
bobzyeruncle 17th Nov 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumJohn Lennon Plastic Ono Band (With The Flux Fiddlers) - Imagine (1972) | You'd think the four channel mix would see light of day again on SACD dual-layer or DVD-A.
|
bobzyeruncle 17th Nov 2013 | | Vinyl Album[no artist listed] - Top Of The Pops | Looks like an Israeli pressing to me.
|
bobzyeruncle 17th Nov 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Idle Race - Light At The End Of The Road (1985) | Now I see why Jeff Lynne grew the beard. :laugh:
|
bobzyeruncle 17th Nov 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumElectric Light Orchestra - Electric Light Orchestra's Greatest Hits (1993) | Appears to be one of those 'As Seen On TV' compilations, seeing the tie-in with the Globo network.
|
bobzyeruncle 15th Nov 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumVarious Artists - How To Give Yourself A Stereo Check-Out (1967) | The inventors of this went on to create the first speaking check-out card for blind darts players.
|
bobzyeruncle 13th Nov 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumTom Lehrer - Songs By Tom Lehrer (1953) | Are the original scans actually bright red, v. the 'variants'?
The colour, if there's indeed any difference at all, seems to be the only thing I noticed.
|
bobzyeruncle 11th Nov 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Beatles - Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band / Revolver (1992) | Thanks An6y66. Were these transferred from compact discs?
