TheDroid 8th Sep 2018		Vinyl Album Joan Sutherland - The Art Of The Prima Donna (1960)	Quite the history lesson about sopranos in the enclosed booklet! The LP's are labeled "Made In England" and have catalog #'s OS 25232 for LP 1 and OS 25233 for LP 2. The box shows catalog OSA-1214 on front and spine.
TheDroid 5th Sep 2018		Vinyl Album Dr. Van Impe - From Night Clubs To Christ (1970)	Added a cleaner side one label image with a nod to original uploader TheJudge. Also added missing front cover, back cover and side two label images. Dr. Van Impe is the accordian toting evangelist featured along with his wife, Rexella, CV-1003.
TheDroid 3rd Sep 2018		Vinyl Album The Tremeloes - Shiner (1976)	This should actually be listed as format: "LP", not as "Promo Only" as Shiner was a normal commercial release. Images #1745525/26 are of a promotional copy, but not a promo only release.
TheDroid 1st Sep 2018		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Coney Island/Moon Over Miami Original Production	Apparently this label was created by an amateur engineer and radio recording enthusiast named Boris Rose (info per Discogs). There is an interesting video regarding the collection he amassed here: [YouTube Video]
TheDroid 31st Aug 2018		Vinyl Album The New Seekers - The Best Of The New Seekers (1973)	Added promotional label images.
TheDroid 31st Aug 2018		Vinyl Album Jimmy McPartland - The Middle Road (1956)	Someone thought this was a GREAT ALBUM and apparently had to write it on the front cover so the would not forget!
TheDroid 31st Aug 2018		Vinyl Album Coleman Hawkins And His All Stars - Timeless Jazz (1955)	Added a second label variant images.
TheDroid 31st Aug 2018		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Persuasive Percussion (1971)	The artist for this release is sometimes identified as Terry Snyder And The All Stars, but I don't know if this is correct.
TheDroid 31st Aug 2018		Vinyl Album Graham Parker And The Rumour - The Parkerilla (1978)	Added front cover, back cover, gatefold and label images.
TheDroid 31st Aug 2018		Vinyl Album Dave Wilkerson - Why Kids Go Wrong! (1968)	Apparently a spoken word message by the author of "The Cross And The Switchblade" who tells it as it is! I couldn't force myself to actually listen to this. Got it in a box of records left to me. Some other "unique" items in there too. Got the date of release from Billboard December 21, 1968 issue.
TheDroid 29th Aug 2018		Vinyl Album The Beatles - Let It Be (1970)	@78rpm - Unscrupulous people would counterfeit the LP and then distribute it to other unscrupulous retailers, usually at a discounted price. This would circumvent the manufacturer and the artist from receiving their just income. Occasionally they would even infiltrate into the normal distribution channels somehow and unknowing retailers would wind up stocking and selling them. Let It Be was a very popular record when first released and made a good target for those types.
TheDroid 27th Aug 2018		Vinyl Album Faces - Faces	Album known as "The First Step" in most releases.
TheDroid 27th Aug 2018		Vinyl Album It's A Beautiful Day - It's A Beautiful Day (1969)	Added original Columbia "walking eye" label images. The song "White Bird" was ubiquitous on FM radio in Southern California in early 70's. I was surprised to learn that it only reached #118 on Billboard Hot 100 although David LaFlamme's solo version peaked at #89 in 1976. Still have a fond spot for this tune.
TheDroid 27th Aug 2018		Vinyl Album Country Joe And The Fish - Together (1968)	Added a clearer front cover with recognition of original uploader 45stalker. Also added a second label variant images.
TheDroid 27th Aug 2018		Vinyl Album Virgil Fox - The Fox Touch (1977)	Limited edition direct to disc recording. Deadwax has stamped "Manufactured In Germany" on both sides.
TheDroid 27th Aug 2018		Vinyl Album Martin Denny - The Best Of Martin Denny (1961)	Added cleaner front cover image with a tip o' the hat to original uploader Trainman. Also added missing back cover and a second label variant images.
TheDroid 27th Aug 2018		Vinyl Album New Orleans Rhythm Kings - New Orleans Rhythm Kings	Added clearer label images with acknowledgement of original uploader Tony P.
TheDroid 27th Aug 2018		Vinyl Album Various Artists - New York And Chicago Jazz	Added alternate front and back cover images in black. Also added clearer label images with a nod to original uploader Tony P.
TheDroid 27th Aug 2018		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Sunshine (1973)	Added second label variant images.
TheDroid 27th Aug 2018		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Funky Favorites (1977)	Added a retail packaging combining this LP with R-2210 . This is still sealed with original price tags for "2 Record Set...Only $7.98" (including further price reduction to $1.99!). Also, it appears that Vinylville's front and back cover images should be moved to the top.
TheDroid 27th Aug 2018		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Funny Bone Favorites (1978)	Added a retail packaging combining this LP with R-2150. This is still sealed with original price tags for "2 Record Set...Only $7.98" (including further price reduction to $1.99!).
TheDroid 27th Aug 2018		Vinyl Album Jerry Butler - The Sagittarius Movement (1971)	Added back cover and label images.
TheDroid 27th Aug 2018		Vinyl Album Hubert Laws - Afro-Classic (1971)	Added missing gatefold images and second label variant. This has Universal Stereo printed beneath the CTI logo on left side.
TheDroid 27th Aug 2018		Vinyl Album Leon Redbone - On The Track (1975)	Added earlier WB Palm Trees label images.
TheDroid 27th Aug 2018		Vinyl Album Jack Bruce - At His Best (1972)	The album opens at the top, with the Jack Bruce heading flipping open. On the flap, under his name is "At His Best" in embossed white lettering. It does not seem to want to show up on my scans. The labels show title as "Jack Bruce Best" The Monarch Records deltas for this are: Side One Δ 17313 Side Two Δ 17313-X Side Three Δ 17314 Side Four Δ 17314-X
TheDroid 24th Aug 2018		Vinyl Album Toni Brown And Terry Garthwaite - Cross-Country (1973)	Toni Brown And Terry Garthwaite (2/5's of Joy Of Cooking) would release a further LP in 1977 F-9538 calling their partnership The Joy.
TheDroid 23rd Aug 2018		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Easy Rider (1969)	Finally found a copy near the end of my collection with the complete white border in improved condition for image #1137099! At last everything is (nearly) organized! And mostly added to 45worlds!
TheDroid 23rd Aug 2018		Vinyl Album Elvis Presley - Memories Of Elvis (A Lasting Tribute To The King Of Rock 'n' Roll) (1978)	The back covers of both the outer box and inner box are a blank black textured surface.
TheDroid 22nd Aug 2018		Vinyl Album René Leibowitz - Three Sonic Blockbusters (1978)	Front cover shows "Three Stereo Stunners" while the label reads "Three Sonic Blockbusters".
