moorlock2003 22nd Jun 2024		Vinyl Album The Hollies - The Hollies (1966)	Here is the great track “Stewball”, played live by the band up until 1968, not released in the US at all.
moorlock2003 31st Dec 2023		Vinyl Album The Tremeloes - Even The Bad Times Are Good / Silence Is Golden (1967)	The second of 3 Epic LPs by the band that suffer from being electronically rechannelled to simulate stereo. Stick with mono.
moorlock2003 31st Dec 2023		Vinyl Album The Tremeloes - Suddenly You Love Me (1968)	Review A mishmash of tracks but some gems here. The soul covers are uniformly blah but “Suddenly Winter” is a psych gem and several more of the band originals are quite good. Avoid the stereo version; it is electronically rechannelled to simulate stereo and sounds tinny compared to the preferred mono version. 1 person found this review helpful. ✔︎ Helpful Review?
moorlock2003 25th Dec 2023		Vinyl Album The Tremeloes - World Explosion! (1968)	Review If you thought that was bad, check out the weird cover Art for their 2nd LP. ✔︎ Helpful Review?
moorlock2003 25th Dec 2023		Vinyl Album The Tremeloes - World Explosion! (1968)	Review Horrible cover Art aside, this is a hodge-podge of mostly lame cover tunes, three group originals, plus their recent single Helule Helule. As with every Tremeloes album, one must be at-the-ready to lift the tonearm when an offending track comes along. 1 person found this review helpful. ✔︎ Helpful Review?
moorlock2003 25th Dec 2023		Vinyl Album The Tremeloes - Even The Bad Times Are Good / Silence Is Golden (1967)	The original title of the LP was “ Keep on comin on”, but was hastily retitled after the two hits, as was customary of Epic.
moorlock2003 5th Nov 2023		Vinyl Album The Honeycombs - All Systems Go! (1965)	Also released on Canadian Pye with altered cover Art; blue lettering against white background.
moorlock2003 23rd Oct 2020		Vinyl Album Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick And Tich - If No-One Sang (1968)	This album is frustrating, as about 60% is great while the others are pure dreck. Their version of "If I Were a Carpenter" is my favorite. It should have been a single.
moorlock2003 23rd Oct 2020		Vinyl Album Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick And Tich - Greatest Hits (1966)	The stereo version has about half true stereo tracks while the others are "rechannelled for stereo"
moorlock2003 24th Aug 2020		Vinyl Album The Hollies - The Hollies Greatest Hits (1973)	What a frustrating release this was. Crappy cover art, inadequate song selection, liner notes with inaccurate info, and a general feeling of why? Epic should have recorded the band on their US tour and put out a live album. They gave Poco a live album why not The Hollies? Terrible missed opportunity here.
