rocket666 4th May 2020		Vinyl Album Smith - A Group Called Smith (1969)	Label variation. 'SMITH' above title, etc. Also small '4' below and right of Made in USA back cover.
rocket666 4th May 2020		Vinyl Album Joni Mitchell - Miles Of Aisles (1974)	Another label. Plain sky blue all over. Large lower case 'a' with small lower case 'asylum' under it all in white. cat no and STEREO as last variant shown.
rocket666 4th May 2020		Vinyl Album Elton John - Greatest Hits, Vol. II (1980)	As these few DJM Portugese have consecutive numbers it is clear they were released altogether at one date only.
rocket666 4th May 2020		Vinyl Album Elton John - Greatest Hits, Vol. II (1980)	Mine includes the (UK) lyric booklet.
rocket666 4th May 2020		Vinyl Album Elton John - Don't Shoot Me I'm Only The Piano Player (1987)	Full list of Elton issue on Priceless follows. This is from a complete catalogue of 118 single albums bar 3 (nos. 96, 103 and 110) available from 'discogs' and topped up with info on inner sleeves I have. Also double albums PRID 1 to 13 (ex 9; poss 10cc - 'Live and Let Die'?). PRICE 24 Jun 1983 A Single Man PRICE 70 Jun 1984 Victim of Love PRICE 71 Jun 1984 21 at 33 PRICE 72 Jun 1984 The Fox PRID 2 Sep 1984 Blue Moves All the five prior releases on the The Rocket... label. PRICE 97 Apr 1987 Empty Sky PRICE 98 Elton John PRICE 99 Tumbleweed Connection PRICE100 Madman Across The Water PRICE101 Honky Chateau PRICE105 Nov 1987 Don't Shoot Me.... PRICE106 Caribou PRICE107 Rock of the Westies PRICE108 Captain Fantastic.... and PRID 13 Nov 1987 Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. Very few of which I has seen, let alone own. The last single albums are in order of original DJM release, plus GYBR. This list excludes, as has been done on a previous reissue, '17-11-70' and the 2 hits collections The second DJM cd issues with 7 digit cat nos, after a DJM 1 to 13 (ex 4) non chronological series, corresponds to the 10 above but also all mention on their booklets pg 2, the 2 hits collections. Though the cd 7 digit cat nos are not in chronological order either so to reference their release dates from here COULD be incorrect.
rocket666 4th May 2020		Vinyl Album Elton John - Madman Across The Water (1987)	825 487 on labels matches corresponding CD release. However sleeve states (in error?) all -vinyl, cass, and cd are 825 488. My 'Caribou' cd has that next number!
rocket666 3rd May 2020		Vinyl Album Elton John - Honky Chateau (1981)	This cat no is for the 1981 (2nd) reissue series. Mod Edit: Date Fixed.
rocket666 3rd May 2020		Vinyl Album Elton John - A Single Man (1983)	Of course the above first line does not apply to this issue and 4 other Rocket first time reissues in this series, only the DJM ones.
rocket666 3rd May 2020		Vinyl Album Nick Lowe - Party Of One (1990)	I have label variation.. Both side merely .... 'written by Nick Lowe and published by (G.B. only) Plangent Visions Music Ltd.'
rocket666 3rd May 2020		Vinyl Album Nick Lowe - The Abominable Showman (1983)	I have XXLP18 on labels only, but still in this sleeve; seperate entry or not? Run out grooves same; but side one -- 15 before ARUN and nothing after...
rocket666 2nd May 2020		Vinyl Album 10cc - 10 c.c. (1990)	Far as I can tell, always been this sequence!
rocket666 2nd May 2020		Vinyl Album 10cc - Bloody Tourists (1983)	Ghost images on back of sleeve.
rocket666 2nd May 2020		Vinyl Album 10cc - Deceptive Bends (1983)	Company inner sleeve details series issues nos 1 to 60...
rocket666 2nd May 2020		Vinyl Album Renaissance - A Song For All Seasons (1978)	Excellent. Everything included - even got a 'cut-out' snip top right front....ooops.
rocket666 2nd May 2020		Vinyl Album Quiver - Gone In The Morning (1972)	Nice grain effect gatefold sleeve.
rocket666 1st May 2020		Vinyl Album Simon And Garfunkel - Simon And Garfunkel's Greatest Hits (1972)	I have another label variation (newest perhaps). Titles justified at left. Album date to left and song dates to right. Speed above Stereo to left and LC 0149 above cat to right of CBS.

rocket666 1st May 2020		Vinyl Album Michael Nesmith - And The Hits Just Keep On Comin' (1977)	This was issued in US, AUG 1972, not getting a UK release until this Island one in JAN 1977 along with a 'Pretty Much ....' reissue from FEB 1974. Note the consecutive cat numbers! Jan '77 was 2 months before Nesmith's only solo UK hit 'Rio' from the upcoming 'From A Radio Engine... ' album. 1973 here could just be to match up both these Jan '77 versions (incorrectly) The number should fit better in the Island series too.
rocket666 1st May 2020		Vinyl Album Michael Nesmith - The Prison (1975)	Only UK owner of this perhaps! Bought second hand record shop in Newbury, Berks. The day was 15.05.2008 at 13.26 - still have the reciept! Cost £25.00. Little bit of foxing on box front.
