Comments and Reviews


Fokeman 1st Apr 2023		Within the space of time when the first issue swirl label was sold, this went from shillings, then pounds and pence and even went as high as £2.75 (55/-) on the blue sticker. I'll put my front cover sleeve up with this sticker on it, when I can.



Quad5point1 9th Jun 2020		Added better / full size scans of inside the gatefold sleeve to replace my originals



Fokeman 28th Aug 2019		not valid legal tender ppint!



ppint. 27th Aug 2019		½(n)p!



Fokeman 27th Aug 2019		Deepinder old mate, I'll sort you out with that new penny when I see you next! ;-)



deepinder cheema 20th Apr 2015		Yeah I remember that the UK public were being trained up to use the new Decimal currency so items were labelled in decimal before Feb 1971 / D Day. I bought my copy in 1979 or 1980 in Cyclops, Birmingham. It was new old stock but had some wear and tear - I'm sure it went in and out of the racks. I paid the cover price - £2.50 and still feel cheated that I paid the 'rounded up' price!



yvetot-bocage 19th Apr 2015		The fantastic cover that once epitomised the Vertigo roaster and the genius of Keef. As for the music itself, simply the best sampler ever made.



Syd Vliet 8th Dec 2014		It was released in October 1970 (advertised in the music papers that month). Very good compilation that introduced me to Nucleus and Manfred Mann Chapter Three.



PhilMH 8th Dec 2014		I remember that sister label Polydor introduced its 99 series in either December 1970 or January 1971, just before my family emigrated to Australia, so I imagine that the Philips group of labels would have done the same thing at the same time.



Hawkmarty SUBS 8th Dec 2014		Decimalisation was a drawn out affair in the UK; 5p and 10p coins first appeared in 1969. Dual currency prices were appearing on items from 1970 onwards so this LP could easily have appeared in 1970.



robozuc 7th Dec 2014		Originally came with a blue price sticker on the front cover – sold for 49′/11 or £2.50 np (np = new pence: decimalisation took place in the UK on 15th February 1971 so this album was released not long after that date). Gatefold sleeve photographed and designed by Marcus Keef.



Quad5point1 14th Feb 2014		Uploaded Cover scans. Hard cover to get in great condition, fortunately mine is like new.
