Graham7 3rd Jul 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumDr. Hook - Sometimes You Win (1982) | Axis does seem to be a (pre Fame) separation from Music For Pleasure.
e.g. Animals - The Most Of AXIS6004 which was on
Music For Pleasure (MFP 5218) in UK.
Neil, great cover images, but could you please have another go at the labels?
I'm blurry enough as it is.
|
Graham7 2nd Jul 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumMarillion - Real To Reel (1985) | Have rearranged images.
My label scans were done on my previous scanner, if I can find the disc (didn't have a cover I think) will re-scan for comparison.
I've linked by country the international Fame label examples we have listed so far (Ireland/Germany/Europe).
And added the linked releases for this.
|
Graham7 2nd Jul 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumJim Reeves - Jim Reeves' Souvenir Album (1964) | I think the "Long (33 1/3) Play" is already printed as part of the label's design.
|
Graham7 1st Jul 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumElvis Presley - The First Live Recordings (1984) | Images added. Changed country to Europe, record was manufactured in W. Germany.
This is the shortest album I've ever seen, with a total running time of around 15 minutes.
Could have fitted easily on a 7" EP. Still, it's an interesting document,
|
Graham7 28th Jun 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Bible - The Bible (1989) | Looks good to me.
I've added my CD, it has a very different cat# CDP 32 1727 2, ie not a variation on CHEN 12.
And I've added their 1988 LP Eureka, from which 7 of the 10 tracks also appear on this complilation.
|
Graham7 28th Jun 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Bible - The Bible (1989) | It does state it's a Free 12" Single. But the sides are numbered 1-4.
Is there a CHEN 12 without the free 12", which would also have a different barcode? If there is, then I think the extra tracks should be listed here.
The standard CD, which I bought 20+ years ago only features the 12 main tracks. Will scan and add that later.
I recently got me a very nice copy of this vinyl set from a charity shop for a reasonable £2.50 and am listening now. (Don't listen to CDs much nowadays)
|
Graham7 27th Jun 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumJapan - Quiet Life (1982) | 1982 would certainly fit the discog better.
I've not changed date, but I feel the numbers must follow in a chronological sequence.
|
Graham7 27th Jun 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Rolling Stones - Between The Buttons (1967) | Have made a new Netherlands entry LK 4852 and moved my cover image over, as I said I would.
So we definitely need a genuine UK cover image here now.
|
Graham7 27th Jun 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Rolling Stones - The Rolling Stones (1964) | @joehilllouis, the 625 384 QL version should have its own separate entry.
Would you like to make one, and mods can move your images over.
|
Graham7 27th Jun 2015 | | Vinyl Album[no artist listed] - Danses Et Chants Bamoun (1957) | This was a nice find in a cheap box of 78s. Scanned it months ago, just taken the plunge and added it. Not sure about the label name, I've entered what looks like it in full.
Date may be wrong too. Sleeve notes say it was recorded July 27, 1957.
Discogs has a different version Ocora – SOR 3
Here's a sample, showing the Ocora cover art.
"Musique pour la Pendaison d'un Ministre"

Graham7 26th Jun 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Rolling Stones - Between The Buttons (1967) | Number One on yesterday's Worlds Top 50!, knocking that Hair Bear Bunch off the top, at last.
I also linked the versions of this, in the process see yet again that the U.S. of A. couldn't cope with albums with no hit singles on them, so "Let's Spend The Night Together" and "Ruby Tuesday" were added to LL 3499 (and PS 499), at the expense of "Back Street Girl" and "Please Go Home".
I've got a Dutch copy of this to add, which I think came in the sleeve I've added here. stonesondecca.com does state that ALL UK covers have "Printed in England by James Upton Ltd", which mine does not.
I'll make an entry for the Netherlands version tomorrow, and move the cover over - a UK cover scan would be nice if anyone can oblige.
|
Graham7 17th Jun 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Rolling Stones - Out Of Our Heads (1965) | The cover I added definitely has a greenish tint.
(These scans were done on an A3 scanner, not photos.)
|
Graham7 16th Jun 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Rolling Stones - Their Satanic Majesties Request (1967) | Thanks, MM. I've hidden my attempts at taking pictures (of a friend's copy) with my rubbish cameraphone, the 3D cover image came out ok though!
|
Graham7 15th Jun 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumAudience - The House On The Hill (1971) | Added advert (from Private Eye #249). Different photo to those that appear on cover.
|
Graham7 14th Jun 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumJonathan Winters - The Wonderful World Of Jonathan Winters (1960) | Introduction - Flying Saucer
[YouTube Video]
|
Graham7 14th Jun 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumSoft Machine - Fourth (1971) | Added advert from Private Eye #242, 26 March.
Album entered UK charts 2nd April 1971, peaking at #32 in 2 week stay.
|
Graham7 12th Jun 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumLondon Symphony Orchestra - Holst (1958) | I've got a cover, images added - also added to entry on Classical World.
Added K/T labels too.
|
Graham7 11th Jun 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumNina And Frederik - Nina And Frederik (1961) | Labels and back cover added.
The back cover was printed after September 1960 as the sleeve notes mention Nina And Frederik's wedding in that month.
|
Graham7 12th Apr 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumMonty Python's Flying Circus - Monty Python's Flying Circus (1970) | Rearranged the new images, the PRT ones will be from around 1981, the light blue ones 1985, and the black ones from 1989.
We only label an album as Mono LP if it also exists in Stereo, which I don't think it does, despite the Stereo on the black labels.
|
Graham7 11th Apr 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Marcel Marceau Sound - Western Boulevard (1991) | Not only is it a great album, virtually undocumented online ('til now), as a bonus, when putting it away I spotted that it was pressed by SRT SRT-91L-3018.
|
Graham7 11th Apr 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Marcel Marceau Sound - Western Boulevard (1991) | From Wayne D. Evans' bio page at yetiboyrecords (some spelling corrected):
"1984 – 1993 The Marcel Marceau Sound
Wayne played guitar, wrote songs for and shared vocal duties with Dawn Foxall and Ged Rodgers brother of Paul. They recorded one album and toured the south of France and Ireland as well as playing all over the UK. They also promoted and hosted live events at our studio space on Carrington Street “The Works”. They flew the flag for live music during the synthesiser saturated 1980’s"
He currently plays with The Last Pedestrians, Mas Y Mas and Rich & Famous, usually not too far from Nottingham.
2 singles can be found on 45cat, see Gaffa (1979).
His previous bands include Florida Snowshifters, Hi Bred Mishap, Star Garage, and The Tadpole Lane and District County Council Charity Band.
Dawn Foxall was also singer with Gaffa and Florida Snowshifters, and also in Bugaboo and Cute Cuts.

Graham7 23rd Mar 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumAC/DC - If You Want Blood You've Got It (1978) | Possibly my favourite live album, except I get a stiff neck after listening to it.

Graham7 3rd Mar 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumAttila The Stockbroker - Radio Rap! (1984) | I was all set to add this to 12" World as the A side has only one track of 4 minutes, and the cat# fits over there.
B side actually has only 2 tracks (bands), what we have listed as B1-B11 is "A poetry reading in front of a quiet but appreciative and highly cuturally aware audience, recorded at one of London's top literary hotspots and featuring some of the finest gems of contemporary literature". Alternatively described on sleeve as being "Recorded in front of an audience of about sixty drunken degenerates at a pub in Cricklewood last April".
Including "Radio Dub", side 2 has a total running time of 22 minutes and 22 seconds.
I think it qualifies for both worlds, but I'll hold off for the moment.

Graham7 23rd Feb 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumDrugstore - Anatomy (2011) | Blackholes And Brokenhearts
[YouTube Video]
Just one of 11 great tracks.
Read about the making of this album at anatomyalbum.blogspot, some reviews, and the missing 7 years.
|
Graham7 7th Feb 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumTom Robinson Band - Power In The Darkness (1978) | You've inspired me to get my copy out, and I find it's from New Zealand with the addition of the hit, so I've added it EMC 3226.
(edit: all images now added, no inner sleeve for NZ, and the back cover has the G&L printers credit overprinted to obscure it)
|
Graham7 6th Feb 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Beatles - Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (1967) | According to Mojo Collections #2 (p47), the red & white inner was designed by hippy collective, The Fool, and LPs with it (and the insert) were worth £60 (in 2001).
|
Graham7 6th Feb 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Beatles - Rubber Soul (1966) | Agreed re dating it to Feb '66 (someone will shout if they disagree).
Added scan of my tatty cover which goes with my mono label scans (XEX 579-1 / XEX 580-1).
The stickered cover on display here is, as noted, for the stereo edition and should be moved to a new entry PCSO 3075 once it is created.
Perhaps Micko59 would like to add it?
|
Graham7 1st Feb 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumUriah Heep - Very 'eavy, Very 'umble (1971) | The cat# suggests late 1970 or 1971. See Island label discog, page 3.
(oh - Snap)
|
Graham7 30th Jan 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumEugene Wallace - Book Of Fool (1974) | Any chance of a side 2 label? We seem to have 2 side 1s.
