DRIVEIN101 2nd Apr 2024		Vinyl Album The Beatles - Introducing The Beatles (1973)	There are also counterfeit "hype stickers" that indicate "FEATURING TWIST AND SHOUT, P.S. I LOVE YOU". The legitimate (and quite rare) hype stickers show "FEATURING TWIST AND SHOUT, PLEASE PLEASE ME"
DRIVEIN101 28th Jan 2024		Vinyl Album The Beach Boys - Be True To Your School (1982)	Compilation of the musical tracks that were "dropped" from the 80's reissue albums (SN catalog series).from "Surfin' USA" to "Summer Days..."

DRIVEIN101 17th Feb 2021		Vinyl Album The Beatles - The Beatles Again (1970)	By the time this album was released, the following tracks had yet to appear on a US Capitol album: Love Me Do (UK single with Ringo on drums) From Me To You Misery There's A Place Sie Liebt Dich A Hard Day's Night I'm Down The Inner Light Get Back (single version) The single version of "Let It Be" and the B-Side "You Know My Name (Look Up The Number)" had not yet been released at that time It would have been interesting if Capitol had made this a 2-LP set with all the chosen and passed-over tracks

DRIVEIN101 2nd Jun 2020		Vinyl Album The Ventures - Flights Of Fantasy (1968)	This was the last Ventures album to be released in both mono and stereo formats as this was around the time that mono albums were being phased out

DRIVEIN101 24th May 2020		Vinyl Album The Monkees - Barrel Full Of Monkees (1971)	To expand on the last note above, it was not only The Monkees' final release on Colgems, it was the final album released on the Colgems label overall. Its catalog was then sold to Bell Records
DRIVEIN101 24th May 2020		Vinyl Album The Fantastic Dee-Jays - The Fantastic Dee-Jays (1966)	A holy grail for collectors of garage bands, fetching four figures for near-mint copies

DRIVEIN101 3rd May 2020		Vinyl Album Tom Jones - Fever Zone (1968)	Added image of back cover in which Side 2 contents are shown first
DRIVEIN101 7th Feb 2020		Vinyl Album The Hollies - The Hollies Greatest Hits (1967)	Wow! Never knew this was issued with the Liberty/UA byline since the group had long left Imperial by that time. I just may have to look for a copy of this variation

DRIVEIN101 7th Jun 2019		Vinyl Album Gene Pitney - I Must Be Seeing Things (1965)	This album was released around the transfer of Musicor from United Artists to Art Talmadge's production company. Original pressings include the United Artists byline and features "Looking Thru (SIC) The Eyes Of Love" on Side 2, Track 6. After the transfer was finalized, the labels were changed to include the Talmadge byline and Track 6 on Side 2 was replaced with "If I Never Get To Love You" as shown above (See stereo version of the album for both variants as I just added them)
DRIVEIN101 6th Dec 2018		Vinyl Album Various Artists - A Christmas Gift For You From Philles Records (1963)	Undoubtedly the original Philles release would have topped the charts if not for the national tragedy that took place on the day of its release (11/22/63).
DRIVEIN101 25th Jul 2018		Vinyl Album The Monkees - Greatest Hits (1969)	My copy has the Colgems logo on Side 1 and the Columbia Pictures, Screen Gems and RCA logos on Side 2
