Comments and Reviews


Focus B 27th Apr 2023		Fascinating! Many thanks for the link Scratchy.



Scratchy45 26th Apr 2023		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.



Focus B 26th Apr 2023		Anyone have more info on copies that lack crediting A Day In The Life on Side 2? I recently purchased a mono copy and was surprised to notice it lacked any mention of B6 on the label. I guess this omission was on very early mono copies only. To the best of my knowledge, all stereo copies credit the song.



rambunctious 8th Oct 2021		Another item about Sgt Pepper release date



admiral halsey ● 25th Mar 2020		Magic Marmalade.......I agree, Charity shops can still yield dividends. Witness a 3rd Please please me without the extra 33 1/3 or recording published text in lovely condition for a fiver, or perhaps a solid centre McCartney My love for £4. AH



Scratchy45 1st Feb 2018		@Magic Marmalade - found a thick paper repro copy of the red-white inner (without the "Made in Great Britain - Patents applied for" text) with one of the discs from Perry Como's 40- greatest hits inside. After a mock argument with the charity shop manager (I just wanted the sleeve for the £1 price of the LP) , I was summarily barred from buying any Perry Como LPs there in the future... Non-original or repro, it'll look nice with the orphan of the two copies of Sgt Pepper I bought at Christmas where I mixed and matched inserts and inners to end up with a fully-furnished copy as a gift for my brother.



TopPopper 12th Jun 2017		Time to re-write one of the sentences in the history books, I feel... Sgt Pepper release date



Magic Marmalade 13th Feb 2016		Boy did I have a good day at the charity shops yesterday! Finally got a copy of this... the great white whale of any bin digger's prospective collection: To find a Sgt. Pepper in a charity shop for a quid.... not only that, I got the US Mystery Tour album, and Abbey Road... one after the other in the same rack (I actually did a little dance when nobody was looking)... bit tatty, but it's in one bit, and crucially... it's mono! Sounds strange to say, but this is the first time I've ever heard this in mono... and it's so much better than the cruddy stereo mixes on CDs I'd heard over the years. I may go out again on Monday now... who knows what is lying in wait out there.



TopPopper 18th Oct 2015		Well spotted - I revise my comment accordingly... John - chartreuse; Paul - sky blue; George - tomato; Ringo - fuchsia.



TheDroid 18th Oct 2015		Uhhh...TopPopper I think you may have some discrepency in the order of the boys here. I don't see how Paul's uniform could be considered fuchsia.



TopPopper 18th Oct 2015		OK, strap yourselves in for some blockbusting trivia: the exact colours of the Beatles' "Pepper" suits are as follows: John - chartreuse; Paul - fuchsia; George - sky blue; Ringo - tomato. (Source: Walter Everett, "The Beatles As Musicians", p99.) - so, pub-quizzers out there, if someone asks you where you will find tomato on a Beatles album cover, now you know.



Record Collector 5th Sep 2015		Yes Neil the silver and black from 1982 until 1994



Neil Forbes 5th Sep 2015		@RC, effectively, they switched the Beatles BACK to Parlophone! They ceased using the Apple label(except for special commemorative issues). The Parlophone label wasn't always orange, sometimes it was black with silver print, much like the examples 5 & 6 provided by Roboleyton, at least as far as layout and logo design goes.



Record Collector 5th Sep 2015		The famous orange label that was most recognisable to us Aussies from 1970 to 1982 when all the Beatles albums switched to parlophone I have two copies one the glossy cover Aussie issue and the other the last album I bought on the 29Th of December 1989



Neil Forbes 12th Aug 2015		The label images uploaded by Roboleyton would(hazarding a guess) be from somewhere around the early 1970s as it's in 1970 that the label design(across HMV, Columbia, Parlophone and Stateside labels) first appeared as a unifying measure by EMI.



Record Collector 12th Aug 2015		Sorry the second labelf from the bottom



Record Collector 12th Aug 2015		The bottom label looks like a 1970's issue as we had the orange label during the seventies and early eighties



Magic Marmalade 26th Apr 2015		You wouldn't think something as innocuous as an inner sleeve would require a separate designer. ...Makes me wish I'd bought the one I found in the bottom of record bin in a chazza a couple of months ago now.... but didn't know if it was just for this title or a general company inner at the time. We need a dedicated site especially for bits and pieces of records, where you can get that missing sleeve, insert, or even the record (Other than ebay) from someone, or put one up when someone comes across a stray inner or sleeve.



An6y66 25th Apr 2015		Sleeve designers also know as 'the fool'. They also designed the cover for the move's first lp and painted the mural on the apple records shop in the 60's



deepinder cheema 25th Apr 2015		I did not kno that! I have a funny story, at Wintertons auction in Lich some wag had removed the inner sleeve and swapped it with Harry Secombe LP. This was done to put off any potential bidding dealer or collector, so I swapped it back especially as I was not going to bid. Mint fresh ones are highly prized as these often go missing even on nice copies



Magic Marmalade 24th Apr 2015		Inner Sleeve designed by Marijke Koger-Duham (see tag at bottom).



BEATLEJOHN 24th Sep 2014		It's been moved over to the Stereo releases...John



LouisSidney 24th Sep 2014		Which one is the Pathé-marconi pressing ??



An6y66 7th Nov 2013		Added the 'fourth proof' missprinted sleeve.



An6y66 4th Oct 2013		made in france pathe marconi pressing added



roboleyton 31st Aug 2013		Images uploaded. Including Image 1072, B Side label with 'A Day In The Life' missing from track listing.
