Comments and Reviews


ppint. 31st May 2015		janiejones: in most music/record shops i knew, '67-'70, most stock was shelved with disc in the covers; only one sleeve was out on display/in the browsers, in an additional polythene sleeve (usually bearing a shop's price label on the lp sleeve), its lp shelved in its (generally blank) paper inner sleeve (cbs lp inners bore adverts for other cbs lps - mostly musically unrelated to the album within), in turn in a white card sleeve with the label's cat#, artist, title, date stocked and number of copies stocked, and every date a copy sold - this would be the last copy to be sold, and the system worked tolerably well for stock control - except where some thieving toe-rag'd nicked the sleeve put out on display...



Magic Marmalade 30th May 2015		Quite possibly... regulations and laws were not what they are now in those days, not to mention the development of standard and accepted commercial practices. If you go to Stones on Decca.com for Rolling Stones releases, you see that Decca just grabbed a handful of labels and stuck them randomly on different presses of vinyl, which is why their first album ends up with mona labels on different presses, and in corrected sleeves, or vice versa. So maybe something similar occurred here, where they just grabbed a box of stereophonic labels, stuck them on the records, and printed the info on them.



janiejjones 30th May 2015		Perhaps they argued that as long as something gets played on both channels it qualifies as stereo? Or someone made a mistake somewhere along the production line?



Magic Marmalade 30th May 2015		If that's the case, haven't the prodicers broken the law? Surely they couldn't put a sterophonic mark on a mono disc without breaching priduct description laws of the time. Was this ever recalled, I wonder?



janiejjones 30th May 2015		The claim to be Stereophonic seems to be valid for the labels only, as the recording sounds definitely pure Mono. And runouts checking against discogs seems to support this: ✳ = Westrex/Scully mono suite until ca. 1974.



janiejjones 30th May 2015		Could it be that they had the tax code in the runouts? Who was supposed to find that? And when? I even find it strange to be on the labels for EMI product, instead of on the cover? Even considering that in most shops the albums were kept separate from the discs.
