carryonsidney 18th Aug 2014 |  | Vinyl AlbumStatus Quo - From The Makers Of.... (1982) | apparently PRO LP 1 made it to number 4 in the charts (13th Nov 82) and on the charts for 18 weeks, this is highly unlikely to be a limited release at all by any standard! My copy doesnt have a number on it.

carryonsidney 20th Jan 2014 |  | Vinyl AlbumThe Jimi Hendrix Experience - Are You Experienced (1967) | If you look up the wikipedia entry for this album, it details in some depth the recording process/ dates and the studios used on the album. It does mention the whole album was only recorded in mono, due to its success it was quickly electronically reprocessed into Stereo, ie the Stereo versions are of the "fake" type.
Apparently it reached number 2 on the charts and stayed in charts for 33 weeks.
