carryonsidney 11th Oct 2013 |  | Vinyl AlbumHorace Andy - The Best Of Horace Andy | there are multiple versions of this album with a slightly different running order - your record matches the sleeve SO555 -
its a minefield trying to collect reggae especially albums as they tend to be wrong record in sleeve when you buy them at carboots etc!
Might need mods to keep this entry openminded if somebody turns up the SO5555 record and the SO555 sleeve?

carryonsidney 9th Oct 2013 |  | Vinyl AlbumVarious Artists - Break-Through (1969) | I think there is something up with the cats & dates on this label, if you sort by the label name you can see the cats are not currently chronological or sequential? I think the Published dates are a bit misleading on this label. Sixties label design to my eyes looks like this one
|
carryonsidney 9th Oct 2013 |  | Vinyl AlbumVarious Artists - Break-Through (1969) | 1969? looks like mid 70's record to me.
|
carryonsidney 9th Oct 2013 |  | Vinyl AlbumTom Paxton - Ramblin' Boy (1964) | typo on label - most mentions on web go to " Ramblin' " - this was his debut album.
|
carryonsidney 8th Oct 2013 |  | Vinyl AlbumPeter Thomas (Narrator) - We Came In Peace For All Mankind (1969) | Uk version of an album that came out on Decca in the USA before the actual landing.see
|
carryonsidney 8th Oct 2013 |  | Vinyl AlbumStatus Quo - From The Makers Of.... (1982) | Should be noted that this boxset was available in 2 versions, one with a circular tin box and the other with a more usual square cardboard box.

carryonsidney 7th Oct 2013 |  | Vinyl AlbumThe Beatles - A Hard Day's Night (1964) | sorry to have upset you, hope serenity and calm is restored.

carryonsidney 7th Oct 2013 |  | Vinyl AlbumThe Beatles - A Hard Day's Night (1964) | In fact there is a local Taiwanese language however in the 1960's it was actually banned [!] from all use - [schools, official and so on], and the simplified version of Chinese Mandarin was used instead.
Its highly unlikely you see genuine chinese Beatles records, considering the regime happily persecuted some 36 million people and killed possibly upto 1.5 million people for amongst other offences owning, listening or looking at anything connected to the Western bourgeois as enemies of Communism. This state of affairs continued until 1976 so way past the Beatles era.

carryonsidney 6th Oct 2013 |  | Vinyl AlbumThe Beatles - A Hard Day's Night (1964) | 唱片 = records or Disk, so the literal translation of the label name is "First Records". By the way Kab it *WILL* have had a sleeve, if following the pattern of the 2 I have it would be full colour, on flimsy paper with a tight fitting flimsy pvc cover, thin plain paper inner sleeve.
*typo!
|
carryonsidney 6th Oct 2013 |  | Vinyl AlbumThe Beatles - A Hard Day's Night (1964) | This is not Chinese, more likley to be Taiwan or Sth Korean? China was undergoing the Cultural revolution or about to when this came out. I have at least 2 other LPs on this label, Black Sabbath - Masters of Reality and Smokey Robinson & Miracles - hi we're the Miracles, the Miracles is listed on a few soul/ motown sites I'll try and find the link again.

carryonsidney 5th Oct 2013 |  | Vinyl AlbumAC/DC - Let There Be Rock (1977) | thats a lovely job mate no problem - mods can you delete my very lopsideed original?

carryonsidney 4th Oct 2013 |  | Vinyl AlbumPrince Buster - She Was A Rough Rider (1969) | According to Discogs Westmoor does exist as a label seems to be a very small label indeed that issued some Prince Buster stuff between 1988 + 1995 the firm was then wound up. It also seems to be responsible for a Bill Tarney/ coronation street 7" and a Gerry + the England football team release! Both audible torture no doubt.
Why anybody would have a go at releasing this at the same time as the SKANK record label was reissuing bluebeat stuff with some success [including this lp] with loverly printed inner sleeves of memoribilia etc I dunno...
|
carryonsidney 3rd Oct 2013 |  | Vinyl AlbumLed Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin II (1972) | roughly 78 or 79 on for this label design?
|
carryonsidney 2nd Oct 2013 |  | Vinyl AlbumVarious Artists - The Big Wheels Of Motown (1978) | I have just had a look at various Motown references and can't find an earlier version of this, if it did exist it would have a TML or STML cat number....
|
carryonsidney 2nd Oct 2013 |  | Vinyl AlbumPrince Buster - She Was A Rough Rider (1969) | can we see a scan of label? -
This record was issued on Blue Beat, Prince Buster & FAB and reissued on the 1990's Bluebeat but WESTMOOR ??? this sounds like a music publisher?
|
carryonsidney 2nd Oct 2013 |  | Vinyl AlbumVarious Artists - Get Primitive! The Best Of Pebbles, Volume One: The Originals! (1986) | Didnt realise but my copy is blue vinyl I don't know if thats the same for all of them or not.
|
carryonsidney 2nd Oct 2013 |  | Vinyl AlbumBobby Bland - Ain't Nothing You Can Do (1964) | annoyingly the record itself is missing from inside my cover.....!
|
carryonsidney 1st Oct 2013 |  | Vinyl AlbumGeoffrey Hannant - The Organ Of Framlingham Church | here I am avoiding work again! The insert is for a different church altogether? Framlingham has website, their organ was rebuilt in 1970 see here
|
carryonsidney 28th Sep 2013 |  | Vinyl AlbumThe Beatles - The Decca Tapes (2013) | Pridesale no its Master Lacquer Music Lab II. No google returns on that name probably fake. This whole record shouts BOOTLEG!
Dodgy releases by other mainstream bands see here

carryonsidney 26th Sep 2013 |  | Vinyl AlbumJr. Walker And The All Stars - A Gasssss (1970) | Front cover added.
|
carryonsidney 25th Sep 2013 |  | Vinyl AlbumJimi Hendrix - Band Of Gypsys (1970) | SORRY ! just noticed the Puppet sleeve is Australian?!
|
carryonsidney 25th Sep 2013 |  | Vinyl AlbumJimi Hendrix - Band Of Gypsys (1970) | Apologies for poor photos but 7874 is actually the right way around and matches the guitar shot. I have labeled them wrongly the guitar is the Front sleeve, Hendrix head is back sleeve, normal right hand side opening, I don't know if KAB's is opening the same way? I will upload the interior shots later tonight hopefully.
|
carryonsidney 24th Sep 2013 |  | Vinyl AlbumThe Jimi Hendrix Experience - Smash Hits (1976) | Right we need a moderator! [ :-) ]
I just tuned in was completely confused, mainly because I listed the original UK stereo Smash Hits the other day but it didn't show up when I clicked the artist link up top o' page. The reason being, its not THE jimi hendrix exp.... but just Jimi Hendrix....etc ??
[also re notes mono/stereo that is on the original more or less]

carryonsidney 24th Sep 2013 |  | Vinyl AlbumOttilie Patterson - 3,000 Years With Ottilie (1969) | ditto and she has a great voice.
|
carryonsidney 22nd Sep 2013 |  | Vinyl AlbumJr. Walker And The All Stars - A Gasssss (1970) | I have a variation of this - the font on the label is silver not black.
Stamped Z4RS - 3069 - 2 A does have a little squiggle sig which looks a bit like " mmK "
|
carryonsidney 21st Sep 2013 |  | Vinyl AlbumAC/DC - Let There Be Rock (1977) | Front sleeve is embossed.
|
carryonsidney 18th Sep 2013 |  | Vinyl AlbumThe Who - Who's Next (1971) | A little bit of research indicates that the TRACK issued this album once [uk], so we have 2 sleeve variations, mine matches Jules's copy, I have had several copies over the years and never noticed the little red bar before.
The reissued album next appeared on the Polydor label..[1980's]
|
carryonsidney 17th Sep 2013 |  | Vinyl AlbumThe Who - Who Are You (1978) | not absolutely clear but WHO website seems to suggest that WHOD5004 is the first english release (18th august 1978). I think this may be as you say imported to meet demand.
Over to the mods?
|
carryonsidney 17th Sep 2013 |  | Vinyl AlbumThe Who - Who Are You (1978) | I need to do some research, this album was out when Moon passed away and was in the charts?its possible that the record had multiple pressings.
|
carryonsidney 17th Sep 2013 |  | Vinyl AlbumHawkwind - The Space Ritual Alive In Liverpool And London (1973) | Sleeve folds out and printed both sides. Printed inner sleeves.
