Notes

Issued in mono only.
1st pressing plays a 2:52 version of "Tell Me".
2nd pressing plays a 4:06 version of "Tell Me" and some have track A4 listed as "Mona". Most 2nd (and all subsequent) pressings list track A4 as "I Need You Baby".

 My copy is XARL 6271-1A and XARL 6272-1A. The label which is the same as the one uploaded by Sladesounds lists, "I Need You Baby" on both sleeve and label

 You have to be prepared to part with a decent amount of cash to get a very good copy of the unboxed Decca variant of this album that also comes in a good, clean sleeve.

To say that they were abused is an understatement- Beatles and Elvis albums all suffered the same way back in the 60's.

 Say, Magic Marmalade... You'll have to show me that trick of fixing skipping grooves.. I have a copy of Motown Collection Of 16 Big Hits Vol. 5 in mono.. MT-651. There's a skip on the second track on the A side..Marvin Gaye's How Sweet It Is... What magnification did you use? I have my trusty X-Acto knife with a fresh #11 blade..

 Assuming that the pressings with the shorter versions of Tell Me have a pre-4A matrix, I'd say you have a first corrected side 2, in first press sleeve, and with early labels too.

Although Decca really made a bollocks of this, and I think it only confirms whatwe previously thought: That you can find copies with bits and pieces from all over the chronological map in one package.

I just don't think the term: "First press" applies to this title - as a single and absolute copy.

...Unless you take the vinyl matrix numbers as the ultimate bench-mark, and ignore the other features, or consider them lower priority in determining this.

- You could probably fill a whole shelf with variations and permutations, and devode yourself to collecting just this album, as a hobby in itself! :) - Surely other Decca artists and albums of the time would have been subject to the same degree of variance? -

 Alternate (unboxed) labels and "Flip Back" cover added.
Back cover flip-back sleeve, with "Printed In England by McNeil Press, London, S.E.1"

Matrix / Runout (Side 1, etched): XARL-6271-1A
Matrix / Runout (Side 2, etched): XARL-6272-4A

The Sleeve states side 1 track 1 as "Route 66"
The label states (get your kicks on) Route 66

Not sure which pressing this is, perhaps someone can advise.

 Some MASSIVELY EXHAUSTIVE notes on this release from StonesOnDecca website which includes info from a guy that worked in the pressing plant and confirming that covers and labels were stockpiled without much care as to what sequence they got used.

Back cover without flip-back sleeve, with only "Printed In England" bottom right corner. No "McNeil Press".

Rights Society: BIEM / NCB Side 1
Rights Society: N.C.B. Side 2

Matrix / Runout (Side 1, etched): XARL-6271-2A
Matrix / Runout (Side 2, etched): XARL-6272-4A

 Added Flip-Back sleeve scan.

(I fixed my copy of this by the way. Now don't wince, but I took a Stanley Knife blade, and with the aid of a magnifying glass... VERY gently moved it into the jumping groove, and just delicately moved it from side to side a tad (Did not cut!)... bingo!)

There is a rare cover version of this with the boxed Decca logo on the front top right in blue, not black (Which I don't have...boo hoo).

 I can't make out if the back cover scans that sladesounds added have a flip-back sleeve (top and bottom edges) or not... that is, does the front flip over the back cover or under it. Mine has a flip back (front over back), but don't want to add a scan unnecessarily if slade's scans show one.

My matrix numbers are 2A and 3A, with the full 4::06 version of Tell Me, and a "Mona" label with the Bozier mis-spelling wordnot has; I Need You Baby flip-back sleeve (as said) with just: Printed in England bottom right.

(Seems you're likely to get almost any permutation of assembeld parts with this record if you get one... Mona labels in I Need You Baby Sleeves, or vice versa, or all Mona, or all non Mona, flip over, or under, with various printing credits, and either of the above mentioned labels stuck on any press with either version of Tell Me... Phew, all a bit confusing if you're trying to see some kind of pattern in the variations... but the truth is there's no logic or reason behind it, just a bit of a lottery record!)

 Added scans of 2nd release type with Mona side 1 with missing B.I.E.M both sides.
Discogs describes these as Label 'Z'
Checkout B4 misspelling... 519509 Bozier for Dozier
XARL 6271 - 1A
XARL 6272 - 6A
Not as common as other matrix combinations.
My theory, Decca had a new apprentice who was set to work on this album and it took a while to figure out his cock ups.. IMHO guess.
