motley101 5th Oct 2022		Vinyl Album Big Daddy - Big Daddy (1985)	With due respect to Nebraska this was issued in 1983 originally without Dancing in the Dark, this track was included alongside an ep release in feb/march 1985 containing 3 songs from this album and also Dancing
motley101 20th Aug 2020		Vinyl Album Various Other Artists - World Of Heavy Hits (1972)	I'm playing this at the moment after a £2 splurge on it out of pure curiosity. The covers are pretty good, they try to stay true to the original as much as possible but its a decent album if you can pick it up. Would love to find out who else played on this
motley101 8th Jul 2020		Vinyl Album Elvis Presley - Harem Holiday (1966)	Stout I would vote for Tickle Me for that Honor
motley101 16th Jun 2020		Vinyl Album Elvis Presley - Elvis Is Back! (1960)	No worries John
motley101 13th Jun 2020		Vinyl Album Elvis Presley - Elvis' Golden Records Vol. 2 (1960)	stoutfellow51, the RCA Victor came into effect in 1962, the first Elvis one I know of that has both the large spot and small spot single was Return to Sender. Had the small spot for years and only got an original a few months ago
motley101 12th Jun 2020		Vinyl Album Elvis Presley - Elvis Is Back! (1960)	The main issue was that many record players weren't compatible with a stereo stylus so they wouldn't play plus to the fact that stereo records weren't stocked in shops much as the demand was so low, if you wanted a stereo copy you would usually have to order it in and wait. Some albums sound better in mono instead of stereo and vise-versa, Pet Sounds springs to mind, mono for me on that is better. Piper At the Gates of Dawn is much better in stereo. Only towards to the end of the 60's was it that you had to order mono records, yet singles were mostly pressed in a mono format not a stereo one with a few exceptions.
motley101 25th Apr 2020		Vinyl Album W.A.S.P. - The Last Command (1985)	This was issued around 1987. The original had a different catalogue number
motley101 18th Apr 2020		Vinyl Album Whitesnake - Live... In The Heart Of The City (1982)	This is a reissue from about 1982 or so looking at the labels, originals were released through UA Mod Edit: Date Fixed.
motley101 21st Feb 2020		Vinyl Album Yes - Yes (1969)	Is the release date of this totally correct? the Yesterdays inner sleeve has the release down for November of 1969
motley101 13th Jan 2019		Vinyl Album Mike Oldfield - Hergest Ridge (1974)	Added alternate cover, mine has Mike Oldfield at the top and Hergest Ridge at the bottom
motley101 13th Jan 2019		Vinyl Album Mike Oldfield - Tubular Bells (1973)	I only ever got to hear this in Quad sound once, god it was fantastic
motley101 5th Jan 2019		Vinyl Album Tom Lehrer - More Of Tom Lehrer (1981)	That one looks like a reissue, the labels don't look right for an original, more than likely that's why the difference is with the catalogue numbers circa 1981
motley101 19th Nov 2018		Vinyl Album Salamander - The Ten Commandments (1971)	I got this a few years back as a fold out sleeve and emi disc acetate inside for a whopping 30p
motley101 15th Sep 2018		Vinyl Album Cat Mother And The All Night Newsboys - The Street Giveth And The Street Taketh Away (1969)	2nd issue of this album has a sticker on the rear covering some track details first issue doesn't. which you can see on the picture above
motley101 13th Aug 2018		Vinyl Album Tim Buckley - Happy Sad (1971)	Would this have been pressed around 1976? due to having the Asylum reference on the bottom of the rear of the sleeve
motley101 26th Jul 2018		Vinyl Album Blossom Toes - We Are Ever So Clean (1967)	I bought this some years ago near mint for 20p
motley101 25th Jul 2018		Vinyl Album Audience - The House On The Hill (1971)	I thought this album was much better that the previous and better still than their first album. Some excellent tracks on here notably Jackdaw, You're Not Smiling, I Had a Dream and House on the Hill. Well worth exploring if you haven't already
motley101 14th Dec 2017		Vinyl Album Atomic Rooster - In Hearing Of Atomic Rooster (1971)	It wasnt included on the UK release Droid, the Pete French version of Devils Answer wasn't released in the UK it was John Du Cann on vocals
motley101 28th Aug 2017		Vinyl Album Small Faces - The Autumn Stone (1969)	I have a Charly reissue of this and the month of release is stated as September??
motley101 21st Aug 2017		Vinyl Album The Beach Boys - Surfin' Safari (1981)	My copy of this has 5 tracks each side on the labels and sleeve but 6 cuts each side on the vinyl
motley101 14th Aug 2017		Vinyl Album Peter Sellers - Songs For Swingin' Sellers (1959)	Fred Flange whom is credited on the first track is none other than Matt Monro
motley101 21st Jul 2017		Vinyl Album Lionheart - Hot Tonight (1984)	Originally this band had Jess Cox (Tygers of Pan Tang) fronting them and then according to Reuben Archer (Stampede and Lautrec) Reuben took over before any recordings were made
motley101 21st Jul 2017		Vinyl Album Billy Lee Riley - The Legendary Sun Performers (1977)	A fantastic album this one, my dad picked this up as a white label test pressing a number of years ago
motley101 14th Jul 2017		Vinyl Album Gene Vincent - The Bop They Couldn't Stop (1982)	This was a reissue of the "I'm Back and I'm Proud" album released on Dandelion Records in 1969
motley101 9th Jul 2017		Vinyl Album The Who - My Generation (1965)	Picked this up for £20, condition is ok plays clean but does pop though with how rare it is can't ask for more
motley101 8th Jul 2017		Vinyl Album Egg - Egg (1970)	This does look like being issued around 1975. The original 1969 pressing has orange labels and silver Deram Nova logo on the top and a stickered sleeve with some corrections, my copy has this so no idea what they were trying to hide Not a bad album overall but Azachel album is much better, Polite Force was ok too, worth exploring
motley101 22nd May 2017		Vinyl Album Elvis Presley - Elvis (1959)	This was released in 1959 to correspond with "For Elvis Fans Only", the album didn't sell too well either. Just a release to continue the Elvis Fever during the time he was in the army. It's a good solid album with some good material but the material was issued on various formats prior to this so it only makes it a collection filler. I do have the large silver spot version but did pick up a small silver spot with RCA Victor arched over the top just like the red spot picture
motley101 17th May 2017		Vinyl Album Marilyn Monroe - "Some Like It Hot" Original Music From The Motion Picture Sound Track (1959)	Looking at this one i have 4 copies of this album, 1 original mono, 1 original stereo, 1 1979 reissue and 1 1979 reissue picture disc
motley101 10th May 2017		Vinyl Album John McLaughlin, John Surman, Karl Berger, Stu Martin, Dave Holland - Where Fortune Smiles (1971)	My copy of this has the lilac labels not the orange ones
motley101 4th May 2017		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Axe Attack (1980)	Initial copies of this had a demo version of Running Free. Quite different from the single/album version
