LaurenceD SUBS 27th May 2021		Vinyl Album Jack Sperling And His Fascinatin' Rhythm - Pete Fountain Presents Jack Sperling And His Fascinatin' Rhythm (1961)	Added alternate labels. Just my opinion, but I would prefer to see Jack Sperling included somehow in the artist field, to make searching easier. [Mod: Amended]
LaurenceD SUBS 15th May 2021		Vinyl Album The Geezinslaw Brothers - Can You Believe... The Geezinslaw Brothers! (1966)	Their first LP on Capitol and... their moniker was misspelled on the labels (at least on this pressing).
LaurenceD SUBS 12th May 2021		Vinyl Album Lyndon B. Johnson - Liberty Records Presents Mr. President (1964)	Looks like this was assembled and released as quickly as possible after LBJ's election.
LaurenceD SUBS 12th May 2021		Vinyl Album Angela Lansbury - Dear World (1969)	After many delays, the play opened on Feb 6 1969.
LaurenceD SUBS 12th May 2021		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Jerome Kern's "Roberta" (1956)	Mostly songs from the original 1933 stage production with lyrics by Otto Harbach. The songs "I Won't Dance" and "Lovely To Look At" were introduced in the 1935 film with lyrics by Dorothy Fields.
LaurenceD SUBS 10th May 2021		Vinyl Album The Dave Pell Octet - Plays Rodgers And Hart (1956)	Kapp bought the assets of the bankrupt Trend label around January of 1956. The original Trend release of this LP (TL-1501) was released around Sept. 1954
LaurenceD SUBS 10th May 2021		Vinyl Album Harry Arnold And His Orchestra - The Jazztone Mystery Band (1957)	Originally issued in Sweden as Metronome MLP 15006 "This Is Harry and the Mystery Band"
LaurenceD SUBS 7th May 2021		Vinyl Album Various Artists - The Littlest Revue (1956)	The revue opened on May 22 1956
LaurenceD SUBS 7th May 2021		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Ben Bagley's Shoestring Revue (1960)	According to Theatre Arts ca. 1960, the original cast had to be reassembled years after the fact to make this recording.
LaurenceD SUBS 22nd Apr 2021		Vinyl Album Little Richard - His Greatest Hits (1965)	Added scans for cover & labels; labels and back of cover have cat# VJLP-1124. Sounds like mono to me.
LaurenceD SUBS 20th Apr 2021		Vinyl Album Little Richard And Jimi Hendrix - Friends (1972)	Although Jimi Hendrix did participate in some of Little Richard's Vee-Jay sessions, the general consensus is that none of those recordings are present on this LP.
LaurenceD SUBS 20th Apr 2021		Vinyl Album Flo And Eddie - Flo & Eddie (1973)	Added some alternate labels, which have a few errors, i.e. "Carlos And De Rull", "Marmenoy Hill" and composer "H. Kavian".
LaurenceD SUBS 17th Apr 2021		Vinyl Album Yvonne De Carlo - Yvonne De Carlo Sings (1957)	Forgot to mention that the orchestra leader is apparently John Towner Williams.
LaurenceD SUBS 13th Apr 2021		Vinyl Album The Buggs - The Beetle Beat (1964)	I just gave this another listen, and even with my admittedly damaged hearing it sure sounds like 'reprocessed' stereo.
LaurenceD SUBS 13th Apr 2021		Vinyl Album Ennio Morricone - Original Soundtrack From The Film The Mission (1986)	Apologies for the single label scan; my copy has that same label on both sides.
LaurenceD SUBS 11th Apr 2021		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Surf War (1963)	Looks like an LP on Surf Records borrowed the title and cover photo, but not much of the contents...
LaurenceD SUBS 6th Apr 2021		Vinyl Album Zebedy Colt - I'll Sing For You (1969)	Zebedy Colt, born Edward Earle Marsh (1929-2004) More info about him and this LP at queermusicheritage.com I think that this program displays his talents well; he's a quite capable singer and the backing orchestra is impressive.
LaurenceD SUBS 30th Mar 2021		Vinyl Album Quincy Jones - The Hot Rock (1972)	Director Peter Yates gave screen credits to all of the musicians involved, and they are worth mentioning: Clark Terry, Gerry Mulligan, Grady Tate, Ray Brown, Carol Kaye, Frank Rosolino, Chuck Rainey, Tommy Tedesco, Victor Feldman, Mike Melvoin, Clare Fischer, Emil Richards, Jerome Richardson, Bobbi Porter, Dennis Budimir, Milt Holland BTW note the alternate title for the UK release: "How To Steal A Diamond In Four Uneasy Lessons"
LaurenceD SUBS 30th Mar 2021		Vinyl Album Jonathan And Darlene Edwards - The American Popular Song (1975)	Some of you might recall this tune playing during the end credits of Kentucky Fried Movie: Carioca [YouTube Video]
LaurenceD SUBS 28th Mar 2021		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Hootenanny Hoot (1963)	Performers featured in the film, but not included in the LP: - George Hamilton IV - Judy Henske - Johnny Cash - The Brothers Four
LaurenceD SUBS 28th Mar 2021		Vinyl Album Kay Stevens - Not So Great Songs That Were Left Out Of Great Movies For Obvious Reasons (1963)	Note: tracks are listed here in their actual playing order and as shown on labels; the cover incorrectly assigns "Freud" to side 1.
LaurenceD SUBS 26th Mar 2021		Vinyl Album Montezuma's Revenge - Royal Flush Live! (1977)	Earlier pressing exists with same cat# but has ℗1977
LaurenceD SUBS 25th Mar 2021		Vinyl Album Jonathan Edwards [Paul Weston] - The Piano Artistry Of Jonathan Edwards (1957)	Maybe they were having some fun with this cover
LaurenceD SUBS 19th Mar 2021		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Rosko's Evergreens (1964)	One of 2 Domain LPs that I'm aware of. Domain 101 is a collection of dance tunes by Round Robin And The Parleys. I linked this to the Warner Bros. release, although the track order is different. There are some discrepancies between the cover and label, such as: A4: Yvonne Carol / Yvonne Carroll B1: Ooh Poo Pah Doo / Oo Poo Pah Doo B4: Freddie Scott / Fredie Scott B5: Rain drops / Raindrops
LaurenceD SUBS 19th Mar 2021		Vinyl Album Roy Buchanan - Live Stock (1975)	Added back cover and label scans. My side 1 label shows "Reelin' And Rockin'" composer/publisher as "Pending".
LaurenceD SUBS 9th Mar 2021		Vinyl Album John Addison - Tom Jones (1964)	Many discographies list this as released in 1963, but I think that the U.S. release was not available until around March of 1964, based on the trade journals. The UK release is indeed from 1963, and this U.S. cover shows ©1963.
LaurenceD SUBS 5th Mar 2021		Vinyl Album Bernie Wayne - ...And Then I Wrote-- (1956)	Ok, I'll admit that I owned this LP for quite a while before I noticed Bernie sitting there on the right side of the cover photo... :-) BTW it appears that he signed this copy.
LaurenceD SUBS 5th Mar 2021		Vinyl Album Ike And Tina Turner Revue - Live (1964)	Tina Turner is actually credited as "Tina" on tracks A1,B4,B5. Jimmy Thomas (A2) is credited as "Jerry Thomas" on the cover track listing.
LaurenceD SUBS 25th Feb 2021		Vinyl Album The Unfolding - How To Blow Your Mind And Have A Freak-Out Party (1967)	Looking at that insert/coupon for the "accessory kit", I thought it might have been a joke at first, but it seems to have been legit. How many people do you suppose actually sent away for it?
LaurenceD SUBS 15th Feb 2021		Vinyl Album Bobby Darin - Inside Out (1967)	Added images for front cover (complete, with acknowledgment to davie gordon) and labels.
