Graham7 4th Jun 2018		Vinyl Album David Bowie - ★ (Blackstar) (2016)	Sorry for delay robozuc (and Lee). I only added my image as a temporary measure 2 years ago, fully expecting it to be replaced (have kept it in the hidden section for reference). The label text variances make it clear there should be at least 2 entries.
Graham7 19th Mar 2018		Vinyl Album Buddy Holly - Buddy Holly (1958)	Factory Sample pressings added. One sided discs with black labels and test tone on reverse.
Graham7 18th Mar 2018		Vinyl Album Buddy Holly - Buddy Holly (1958)	There's no need for separate entries for test pressing is there? I have just found test pressings of both sides on one sided discs. I will add images tomorrow, unless there's a precedent here that I've missed. PS - I've thunk on this:... IF we added new entries just for Test Pressings, this website would quickly become a jumbled mess, so images will be here soon.
Graham7 23rd Feb 2018		Vinyl Album Ian Hunter And The Rant Band - Fingers Crossed (2016)	This was Ian's first Top 40 Album since 1976, spending a whole week at #37, including the other formats of course. His eponymous debut reached #21 and All American Alien Boy got to #29, Schizophrenic just made the top 50 at #49 . Dandy was released as a limited (1,000) numbered 7" single for RSD 2017, .
Graham7 27th Jan 2018		Vinyl Album The Wildings - Why Did I Buy Those Blue Pyjamas? (1979)	[YouTube Video] [YouTube Video]
Graham7 26th Jan 2018		Vinyl Album Iggy Pop - Lust For Life (1985)	Added labels, my back cover has an additional sticker showing a presumably UK cat# INTS 5114. I don't propose making a new entry just for this, maybe pressings exist with INTS 5114 on the labels which will be added here one day.
Graham7 25th Jan 2018		Vinyl Album Tubeway Army - Tubeway Army (1978)	Added WEA reissue labels. Not done inner sleeve, but it is of card construction with rounded corners reproducing the inner gatefold spread, and printed by G&L (Garrod & Lofthouse).
Graham7 24th Jan 2018		Vinyl Album Pretenders - Pretenders II (1981)	Added labels with the UK cat# SRK 3572. I suppose it's OK for the K 56 924 labels to stay here, with the London address. I'll add as alternative cat#.
Graham7 20th Jan 2018		Vinyl Album Neil Diamond - Touching You Touching Me (1969)	Added black & white label variant. Also, sticker on back cover has EMI re-distribution catalogue number MCF 2526. The reissue with this cat# we don't yet have listed, presuming it was repressed by EMI after taking over MCA/Uni distribution from Decca.
Graham7 6th Jan 2018		Vinyl Album Hüsker Dü - Zen Arcade (1984)	Cover and first record scans added, I do not have disc 2 unfortunately.
Graham7 5th Jan 2018		Vinyl Album Earle Doud And Alen Robin - Welcome To The LBJ Ranch (1965)	Agreed, Break-In Master, it makes sense for discographical purposes. I've added a full set of images for the mono version, now linked.
Graham7 5th Dec 2017		Vinyl Album Donovan - Live In Japan Spring Tour 1973 (1975)	Your partial sleeve scans are still available for anyone who does fancy stitching them together. As they are incomplete images, they are correctly hidden. I don't know what happened to your label images (you didn't perchance try to Edit Image to replace B side?, the image indicates you edited image). I would hope that if someone does patch together your images, they'll acknowledge the origins.
Graham7 4th Nov 2017		Vinyl Album ABBA - Waterloo (1981)	Added labels (S EPC 32009). I believe the cover currently displayed to be incorrect. My copy has Stereo, Epic logo and EPC 32009 at top left corner (and a Nice Price sticker). Not in mood for tackling cover scans today though,
Graham7 22nd Oct 2017		Vinyl Album Frank Sinatra - Swing Easy (1954)	Added earlier Decca pressing and back cover dated Sept 1954.
Graham7 21st Oct 2017		Vinyl Album Buzzcocks - More Product In A Different Compilation: Best Of The United Artists Recordings 1978-1980 (2016)	Do all these tracks really credit Peter Shelley ??
Graham7 14th Sep 2017		Vinyl Album The Kinks - The Kink Kronikles (1972)	I have made a list of 16 rpm albums (and another for 16 rpm singles).
Graham7 22nd Aug 2017		Vinyl Album [no artist listed] - Top Of The Pops: Vol. 28 (1972)	Just watching this album at auction on Celebrity Antiques Road Trip. Purchased by Jimmy Osmond along with a 1970's Marconiphone portable record player for £25 and with LP cover freshly signed by Jimmy, sold for £56.
Graham7 9th Aug 2017		Vinyl Album Peter Perrett - How The West Was Won (2017)	Brilliant and welcome comeback album, his first new one in 20 years. Labels will follow once I can prise it off the turntable, How The West Was Won [YouTube Video] An Epic Story [YouTube Video]
Graham7 7th Aug 2017		Vinyl Album Perrey-Kingsley - The In Sound From Way Out (1966)	Title (and design) used 30 years later for the instrumental album by Beastie Boys
Graham7 6th Jul 2017		Vinyl Album Allan Sherman - My Son, The Celebrity (1963)	Great to see the back cover, the whole cover was "borrowed/adapted/stolen" by Me First And The Gimme Gimmes for their Billy 45.
Graham7 31st May 2017		Vinyl Album The Tornadoes [UK] - The Sounds Of The Tornadoes (1963)	[Moved from Notes: contributed by scaccolarsi] "The Tornados, who were a strumental group that had a top successful international tune called Telstar, had consisted of Clemente Cattini, the drummer, George Bellamy, the rhythm guitarist, Hienz Bert, the bass guitarist, Roger LaVern, the organist and pianist and Alan Caddy, the lead guitarist. In fact, Telstar was the first tune of a British band that had nationally peaked at number one in the United States by means of both the Billboard and Cash Box hit parades of discs of 45 rpm. Despite the fact that this group had an international success by means of the tune Telstar, they had backed Billy Fury and many other artists who were produced by Joe Meek. With the exception of the tunes Theme From A Summer Place and The Breeze And I, all the tunes were composed by either Joe Meek or one of the band members. This group also made a scopitone film, which was type of jukebox that had featured a film component of sixteen millimeters, for the tunes Telstar and Globetrotter. Although this disc of 33.33 rpm had prosperously sold the first time that it was first issued in October 1962, this reissue, London LL-3293, did not sell very well. Due to the fact that this disc contains twelve tunes and that some of the tunes are in a different order than those that were of the first Telstar disc, Jungle Fever, which was featured by means of the original issue of Telstar, was replaced by the tune Globetrotter, which is indicated Globetrottin’ by means of the reverse jacket side."
Graham7 19th May 2017		Vinyl Album Monty Python - Monty Python's Previous Record (1972)	Added Phonogram labels and the inner sleeve.
Graham7 18th May 2017		Vinyl Album Nick Lowe - Jesus Of Cool (1978)	I've added my 2 of these postcards to Memorabilia World -> "On the third day Repent for He doth record" and "On the fourth day Lowe, He came forth"
Graham7 21st Apr 2017		Vinyl Album The Equals - Unequalled Equals (1967)	Added scans of my labels. Tracks A1 and A3 have been swapped on my copy. The wax has PTL 1006+A stamped in, the B side has PTL+1006-B hand etched. The cover has the tracks as listed in this entry.
Graham7 15th Mar 2017		Vinyl Album Duke Ellington - In A Magenta Haze (1965)	gregs78s, we've *always* entered just one cat# when adding items, like we only enter one Label. Additional ones are added later. There should perhaps be notes to clarify this in the guides. I thought there were, but they don't seem to be there now. (The note about only adding one label, that is there, is often ignored anyway;-) (Another moderator will hopefully decide which entry to keep, it is reasonable that yours should stay.)
Graham7 15th Mar 2017		Vinyl Album Duke Ellington - In A Magenta Haze (1965)	Do not rely on a cat# only search. 99% of the time it works, but I'd always check Artist and Label discographies before adding an item. These entries will be merged. I would suggest keeping Lovinda's new one ALL 796, as it was added correctly. This is what happens when you put ALL 796 / ALL796 as a cat#. Please only add one number, and submit variants as Missing Info. (ps: ppint just said that while i was typling)
Graham7 1st Mar 2017		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Record Mirror Half Pounder (1978)	Is this the badge included with this offer. If so, we can date the badge!
Graham7 14th Feb 2017		Vinyl Album Kirk Whalum - Floppy Disk (1985)	The black ring was placed on copies imported into (eg) UK where CBS could not use the 'Columbia' name as EMI owned it. Similar cover ups were used for RCA imports, to hide the (HMV) "Nipper" logo. I first saw this on my Mott The Hoople All The Young Dudes,
Graham7 18th Jan 2017		Vinyl Album William Onyeabor - Atomic Bomb (1978)	[YouTube Video]
Graham7 8th Jan 2017		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Hit The Road Stax! (1967)	Labels added, I have no cover, but it was only 75p.
