RPFiller 10th Mar 2016		Vinyl Album Frankie Valli - Gold (1975)	I recently purchased a promotional copy of this album to replace the original that I have from 1975. The only difference is the label color is grey instead of brown and has "Promotional Copy" printed across the label, centered below the LP title.
RPFiller 12th Feb 2016		Vinyl Album The Righteous Brothers - You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin' (1965)	This issue is from the Capitol Record Club.

RPFiller 19th Apr 2015		Vinyl Album Brenton Wood - Oogum Boogum (2015)	Brenton Wood was born Alfred Jesse Smith on July 26, 1941 in Shreveport, Louisiana.
RPFiller 11th Apr 2015		Vinyl Album Little Richard - Little Richard (2012)	Great sound! Album recorded at 45 RPM.
RPFiller 13th Mar 2015		Vinyl Album Roy Orbison - The Monument Vinyl Box (2013)	Individual albums have the following catalog numbers: Lonely and Blue (SM 14002) Crying (SM 14007) In Dreams (SLP 18003) Oh! Pretty Woman (SLP 77480)
RPFiller 20th Jan 2015		Vinyl Album Anthony And The Imperials - Reflections (1967)	You are correct, Trainman. It is exactly the same group but they apparently dropped the "Little" moniker from their name on this release.
RPFiller 20th Jan 2015		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Flash-Back Greats Of The '60s (1972)	Yes, Neil Forbes...they're all original hit recordings, none of those awful re-recordings. And since there aren't 10 or more tracks per side, the sound quality is surprisingly quite good.
RPFiller 18th Jan 2015		Vinyl Album Roy Orbison - Lonely And Blue (2013)	The sound quality is stellar with Roy's vocals sounding so crisp and clear it's almost scary. The stereo separation is far more pronounced than the stereo issues on Monument or any of the CD releases. The problem is that there appears to be a flaw in the plate from which they've pressed the album. Track 1 on Side 2 is "Blue Angel" and there is a visible and needless to say, audible mark that covers the entire track, causing a continuous "pop" for the duration of the whole song. I'm on my second copy now and I am really not pleased. Third time's a charm! Finally got a clean copy from a different pressing and it sounds great.
RPFiller 15th Jan 2015		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Flash-Back Greats Of The '60s (1972)	I've added the boxed set front and back cover images. Also, the record labels in the boxed set are printed in colored, script text unlike the ones pictured here. Unlike most K-Tel releases, the sound quality here is pretty good. Plus, all tracks are the original hit versions, not re-recordings.
