Scratchy45 10th Oct 2024		Vinyl Album Mavis Rivers - Mavis (1961)	Placeholder image added from a contemporary Reprise inner advertising other releases. Please demote when an actual sleeve scan appears.
Scratchy45 10th Oct 2024		Vinyl Album Neal Hefti - Themes From TV's Top 12 (1962)	Placeholder image added from a contemporary Reprise inner advertising other releases. Please demote when an actual sleeve scan appears.
Scratchy45 22nd Sep 2024		Vinyl Album Eric Burdon And War - Eric Burdon Declares "War" (1970)	Also issued on MCA MCF 3026.
Scratchy45 22nd Sep 2024		Vinyl Album Sidney Bechet, Martial Solal - Vol. 1 (1957)	Also issued on Vogue CLD. 843
Scratchy45 25th Aug 2024		Vinyl Album Ceredig And John - Songs Of The Prairie	One of those "bought for the cover" Lps I get from time to time. I guess some time I may even play it.....On looking again after adding, I see the Cat# places it firmly in "Revolution Kiddies" rather than "Revolution" so I'll submit a correction.
Scratchy45 3rd Aug 2024		Vinyl Album Pontarddulais Male Choir - Songs Of The United Kingdom : Gems From England, Ireland, Scotland And Wales (1968)	Labels scans to follow. Has possibly the most slipshod bit of artist misnaming I've ever seen on the front cover. Sounds like "single mic stereo" to coin a phrase, so have gone with the Stereo Cat#. On the cover it quotes both BS and SBS as well as "Melodisc Stereo" , while the label identifies as BS and the runout matrix starts SBS. Who knows/cares?
Scratchy45 16th Dec 2023		Vinyl Album Bix Beiderbecke - The Golden Age Of Bix Beiderbecke (1983)	Also released with a "Golden Age" label, GX 2513
Scratchy45 16th Dec 2023		Vinyl Album Bix Beiderbecke With Frankie Trumbauer's Orchestra - Bix And Tram (1970)	Also released in Austrialia on Swaggie Records – S 1269
Scratchy45 24th Nov 2023		Vinyl Album Eartha KItt With Shorty Rogers And His Giants - St. Louis Blues (1958)	Front of sleeve credit as entered and mirroring Italian issue already here, label credit is for "Eartha KItt With Shorty Rogers And His Orchestra". Scans to follow.
Scratchy45 8th Oct 2023		Vinyl Album The Dave Brubeck Quartet - Jazz: Red Hot And Cool (1956)	Images of my rather battered sleeve uploaded. Front sleeve pic in the US is full colour - in the straightened 1950s UK it's monochrome with touched-in red for the dress and the word "Jazz" - perhaps a nod to the literally-minded?
Scratchy45 26th Aug 2023		Vinyl Album Les Squadronaires - L'Heure Du Long Drink (1954)	I like the idea of this - and the other drinks-related-title collections listed on the rear. A French version of the UK title "Contrasts in Jazz" just sneaks in there... LF 1141 was the UK issue (seen on discogs, with London issue for USA on LB 790).
Scratchy45 26th Aug 2023		Vinyl Album Tom Paxton - Ramblin' Boy (1964)	Stereo Polydor-manufactured version exists on EKS 7277 (will add).
Scratchy45 11th Aug 2023		Vinyl Album Mr Acker Bilk And His Paramount Jazz Band - Beau Jazz (1962)	Also, or originally in mono, on 33SX 1456. Label on issue for which details are entered is the early "Columbia Stereophonic" black lettering, blue disc and silver background. Scans to follow.
Scratchy45 11th Aug 2023		Vinyl Album Mr. Acker Bilk And His Paramount Jazz Band - Beau Jazz (1962)	Also in Stereo on SCX 3447 with blue and black on silver label (about to add).
Scratchy45 6th May 2023		Vinyl Album Various Artists - This Is Sue (1969)	But for the purposes of this release, it's Island....
Scratchy45 6th May 2023		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Red Red Wine (1969)	I seems they only had rosé to hand for the cover shoot...
Scratchy45 6th May 2023		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Hit Me With Music (1974)	Front cover has the rather atypical credit "Bobby Marley and the Wailers".
Scratchy45 26th Apr 2023		Vinyl Album The Beatles - Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (1967)	Focus B - I'd take a look here : http://www.yokono.co.uk/collection/beatles/uk/lp/uk_lp_mono_sgt.html for Beatles LP release variations in great detail.
Scratchy45 10th Feb 2023		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Reggae Party (1970)	Composers and sleeve pics added. However the "Boops" and "various artists" on the guide entry got here (corrections about to be submitted), there's a surprising selection of English artists on here for an MFP release. Could equally well be called the "Kong Trojan Party" IF the sleevenotes bear any relation to reality. Reprocessed stereo, though.
Scratchy45 24th Dec 2022		Vinyl Album The Johnstons - Bitter Green (1969)	Sleeve scan photos uploaded - front cover a bit reflective.
Scratchy45 29th Oct 2022		Vinyl Album The Crusaders - Images (1978)	Also issued in UK on MCL 1625
Scratchy45 29th Oct 2022		Vinyl Album Billy Strayhorn's Septet - Cue For Saxophone (1959)	Also issued in UK on Vocalion LAE.586
Scratchy45 22nd Oct 2022		Vinyl Album Julian Bream - Plays Dowland (1964)	If someone were to start a list along the lines of "unfortunate LP cover pictures" I'd nominate this for inclusion.
Scratchy45 13th Jun 2022		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Music Makes The Movies (1970)	Screen scans added, complete with £sd sticker.
Scratchy45 13th Jun 2022		Vinyl Album Spike Milligan - A Record Load Of Rubbish (1971)	Sleeve scans from s rather beaten-up copy added.
Scratchy45 15th May 2022		Vinyl Album Louis Armstrong With The All Stars - Louis Armstrong At The Crescendo--Vol. 1 (1970)	I found myself staring at the cover artwork and trying to figure it out. .. I don't think it's much to do with the uploaded image quality, but rather that each UK reissue was marked a degraded cover image. On the original 1955 issue it's a lot more clear that what's on the chair and trumpet is intended to represent an LA-initialled cloth or handerkerchief.
Scratchy45 28th Feb 2022		Vinyl Album Kirsty MacColl - Desperate Character (1981)	Possibly "chipshop" here as it can be expressed as one word in the Netherlands rather than two e.g. https://www.frietkraamapeldoorn.nl/
Scratchy45 26th Feb 2022		Vinyl Album George Shearing With Quintet And Multi-Colored Orchestra - New Look! (1967)	Sleeve images added - Should anyone have any better feel free to upload replacements.
Scratchy45 26th Feb 2022		Vinyl Album George Shearing - Concerto For My Love (1962)	Sleeve scans added (photos, actually).
Scratchy45 26th Feb 2022		Vinyl Album George Shearing - Concerto For My Love (1962)	Corresponding mono issue on T 1755.
