OldMod67 9th Jul 2020		Vinyl Album The Bevis Frond - Miasma (1987)	Side A run out: WOO 3A-1 MT. B.J. Side B run out: WOO 3B-1 MT.
OldMod67 9th Jul 2020		Vinyl Album 1910 Fruitgum Co. / Ohio Express - 1910 Fruitgum Co And Ohio Express (1969)	Pub date on label 1968, nothing on sleeve; cat number sequence (If accurate) puts it at '69.
OldMod67 8th Jul 2020		Vinyl Album The Times - Enjoy (1986)	@JamesTrash. Yeah It was definitely delayed and being trailed in the November modzine. Having now realised I'd taped my copy 4.12.86, November seems correct. Always thought Artpop! was a cool label and the numbering a nice quirk, same with the singles.
OldMod67 7th Jul 2020		Vinyl Album The Times - Enjoy (1986)	Further to my comment, whilst on furlough inspired rummage I found one of my many cassettes that I used to record for playing on train journeys etc in the 80s. It featured latest two Times albums, Up Against It and Enjoy. I'd even been efficient and noted my recording date on my glorious old Akai system: 4.12.86 Still doesn't solve my 2-87 inner sleeve though, or perhaps I've just read too much into this...?
OldMod67 7th Jul 2020		Vinyl Album The Beatles - Yellow Submarine (1969)	@an6y66 re the barcoded sleeve, my first (non-barcoded) copy was bought 1980/81, which I later replaced due to slight surface noise on George Martin's highly underrated score. The next copy was the barcoded one you've added, with the joined text and I bought that around 1987.
OldMod67 6th Jul 2020		Vinyl Album Go-Go's - Beauty And The Beat (1981)	Sleeve design on mine is the one that's primarily blue. Side One run out: SP. 70021-A STERLING Side Two run out: SP. 70021-B- STERLING
OldMod67 4th Jul 2020		Vinyl Album Small Faces - Big Hits (1980)	Mine came in a regular sleeve, but I do recall one friend being given a copy later which had a gatefold sleeve (I presume this was out first). The inner gatefold had a sleeve note and photos that (I think) had been featured in Richard Barnes' Mods! book. Side One run out : V-2166-A1 A PORKY PRIME CUT Side Two run out: V-2166-B3 TOWNHOUSE
OldMod67 1st Jul 2020		Vinyl Album Bangles - All Over The Place (1986)	Regarding this pressing listed as 'Europe', from what I can see on my small screen, is this not the same as the later red label pressing listed as a Dutch edition? This also has Made in Holland on the bottom of the rear sleeve, with Ganton Street, London address. My orange label 'made in Holland' copy was certainly in the UK shops back then, so is this a duplicate entry? If so, is Europe it's natural resting place..?
OldMod67 27th Jun 2020		Vinyl Album Various Artists - The Stax/Volt Revue Volume 2 Live In Paris	I've not entered a release date for this yet, it's mid-eighties though. I bought a load of these reissued Stax/Atlantic LPs as Canadian imports in the mid-late 80s. All came straight off the shelf from major London retailers.
OldMod67 27th Jun 2020		Vinyl Album The Barry Gray Orchestra - No Strings Attached (1986)	This edition is a 12" , not a 10" . Correction submitted. Mod edit: Incorrect note deleted.
OldMod67 26th Jun 2020		Vinyl Album Various Artists - The Stax/Volt Revue, Volume One Live In London	I've not entered a release date for this yet, it's mid-eighties though. I bought a load of these reissued Stax/Atlantic LPs as Canadian imports in the mid-late 80s. All came straight off the shelf from major London retailers.
OldMod67 26th Jun 2020		Vinyl Album Various Artists - On Stage (1969)	Mustard, white, blue Atco label Contains the content of these two Stax L.P.s : 589010/ 589011
OldMod67 25th Jun 2020		Vinyl Album Otis Redding - Otis Redding Live In Europe (1969)	A reissue of the 1967 L.P., this one picked up in on import in England in the mid 1980s. It was stickered as part of the SUPER SAVER SERIES. Speciality pressing. Stereo edition. Paper inner bag, smooth lined, printed with Atlantic, Atco, Cotillion and Custom. Rockefeller Plaza address.
OldMod67 24th Jun 2020		Vinyl Album Sam And Dave - Hold On, I'm Comin'	I've not entered a release date for this yet. I bought a load of these reissued Stax/Atlantic LPs as Canadian imports in the mid-late 80s so assume they date from around that time. All came straight off the shelf from major London retailers.
OldMod67 24th Jun 2020		Vinyl Album Otis Redding - The Soul Album	@PhilMH. Yes, that's the one! I picked up a few of these imports, with a mixture of labels. My Dictionary Of Soul has the green top Atlantic label, but stranger, my copy of Soul Ballads has the same Atco label, but for some reason the regular release sleeve has been replaced with a colour picture from the '67 Monterey gig..
OldMod67 23rd Jun 2020		Vinyl Album Sam And Dave - Double Dynamite	I've not entered a release date for this yet. If anyone can do so, obviously feel free. I bought a load of these reissued Stax/Atlantic LPs as Canadian imports in the mid-late 80s so assume they date from around that time. All came straight off the shelf from major London retailers.

OldMod67 22nd Jun 2020		Vinyl Album Otis Redding - Ready, Steady, Otis! Otis Redding Live! (2019)	Inner sleeve die-cut on one side; both sides feature colour illustrations of releases from the label. Flipback sleeve.The label is based on the old orange/white/purple UK Atlantic design. I got the RSG! recordings in the eighties when Dave Clark was issuing his VHS series. I always hoped for a soundtrack issue. After all these years I'm surprised with this Father's Day present.
OldMod67 20th Jun 2020		Vinyl Album The Chords [UK 80s] - No One Is Listening Anymore (1986)	Post production by The Chords Wall of Sound. Mastered at Abbey Road, London MPO pressing Side 1 run out: GUITARS TUNED BY BEETHOVEN Side 2 run out: THE GHOST IS FINALLY LAID TO REST
OldMod67 18th Jun 2020		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Unicorn One...beyond Tomorrow (1987)	Wondered if this 1980s Unicorn label could be listed separately from the one it's wrongly listed with? Maybe Unicorn (Mod) due to its connection to the eighties Mod scene..? I see that's now done (19/6), thanks!
OldMod67 18th Jun 2020		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Unicorn One...beyond Tomorrow (1987)	Side 1 run out: WE HAVE SEEN THE FUTURE... Side 2 run out: .. AND IT DOES WORK! Track A1 on rear sleeve as Dada Europe (I'm So Cut Up About You)
OldMod67 18th Jun 2020		Vinyl Album Various Artists - The Unsung Heroes (1988)	Side A run out: "PHASE II : 1978-1981" PHZA-17-A LYN - 20098 - 1E . Z - Side B run out: UNSUNG HEROES WILL RIDE AGAIN! PH 2 A - 17 - B LYN - 20099 - 1E . Z note, side B definitely PH2, not PHZ
OldMod67 17th Jun 2020		Vinyl Album The Byrds - The Original Singles 1965-1967 (1981)	I got mine from Our Price in Bournemouth in the early eighties. Bought volume two at the same time, pretty sure there was a deal on!
OldMod67 10th Jun 2020		Vinyl Album Rev. Martin Luther King And Others - The Great March On Washington (1963)	I got really lucky with this one. I picked up an unsold copy, with a cut out sleeve, in a bargain / clearout section in Southampton (UK) around 1987. I think it was about £1.50...
OldMod67 1st Jun 2020		Vinyl Album The Monkees - Head (1981)	Also came with brown-on-white printed insert; Japanese text one side, English lyrics on other. Incidentally, I've still got mine in the polybag it came in, from Tower Records, Piccadilly Circus. The price sticker indicated it was £14.98, reduced to £12.99. It had then been rebagged as a 12" single, still with its import stamp on, for £3.29. I left the store with a massive grin that day....
OldMod67 1st Jun 2020		Vinyl Album T. Rex - The Slider (1972)	And the U.S inner was a clear polybag, adorned with multiple blue WB logos. There's also a printed number on the top (opening) right corner: 3 5452
OldMod67 1st Jun 2020		Vinyl Album The Residents - The Residents Commercial Album (1980)	A weird and mammoth task, rating a 40 track album, each song a minute long! I haven't listened to this with any regularity since the eighties, but have played the whole album shedloads over the last few days. Varied and weird. A real pleasure though. Interesting how the U.S artwork was used here, but song titles shuffled into the wrong order.... Apparently first pressing of the American edition was wrong, so all is clear now (28/6)
OldMod67 26th May 2020		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Takin' You There (1972)	Track B6 has the censored lyric (no 'mother'!)
OldMod67 26th May 2020		Vinyl Album Isaac Hayes - Isaac's Moods : The Best Of Isaac Hayes (1988)	Timing note: Track B1 is an uncensored 3.16 version Track B5 is the 4.31 version.
OldMod67 22nd May 2020		Vinyl Album Various Artists - The World Of Hits (1969)	I used to play this a lot. My older brother bought the stereo edition when it came out and it was one of those LPs 'around the house' that I used to listen to, although all the tracks were old by then. My brother eventually gave me the record to keep around 1979, which tied in nicely with my sixties fixation! Bless him!
