Comments and Reviews


Record Collector 3rd Feb 2015		Most of the tracks I have on cd



George Slv 3rd Feb 2015		Added inside cover scan, imperfect stitch, with contents. That's my writing on top.



Neil Forbes 2nd Feb 2015		Ah, I see the moderator has filled in the "blanks" with artist/group credits. Thanks, Mod! George, I've started the forum thread as "Tommy Roe's Sheila". Add to it at your own time. Cheers!



Neil Forbes 2nd Feb 2015		George, I'm with you on that one! If I can get the authentic version, thank's muchly! But if the track's a re-recording, I run in the opposite direction to get plenty of space between myself and that "fake" version. It's the reason I stopped buying CDs some time back and now haunt places like Rices in Newcastle's Hunter Street West, or other places like Cooks Hill Books & Records in the nearby suburb, Cooks Hill, or recycling centres, like the one here at Salamander Bay(Port Stephens, north of Newcastle) or another one in the outer Newcastle suburb of Sandgate. Places like that are veritable treasure troves for someone like me. As for the forum discussion, yeah, fire it up and I'll see you there!



George Slv 2nd Feb 2015		Well Neil, if it were me I'd rather have no song than the fake. So to sum up, almost all the songs on this LP are the originals. Do you want a Sheila discussion in the forum?



nboldock 2nd Feb 2015		Thanks George, hadn't spotted that, will sort...



Neil Forbes 2nd Feb 2015		George, I'm at a loss then. I've no answer to this one, but it does prove my point that labels like TeeVee and others I've named elsewhere are not to be trusted if you're on the hunt for authentic versions of your favourite songs of the 1960s or any decade for that matter. What I said 5 hours earlier about erasing rejected "takes" so only the authentic(issued) version remains, that remark still stands. It would go a long way toward weeding out these little cheaters like TeeVee, If we could get rid of them.... Good riddance!



George Slv 2nd Feb 2015		Neil, the YT is not the one from this LP. That's part of my investigation. I got the original 45 lately. Do you hear the difference in the guitars on radio? It would have been some super processing if it is. I'll add more to this yet, and YT could be a good place for a discussion too.



George Slv 2nd Feb 2015		nboldock, check the correction queue [is that an actual word?] and there are 3 more songs to add. Otherwise it's correct. On the inside sleeve all are listed.



Neil Forbes 2nd Feb 2015		George, I've just listened to the YT clip of Sheila. The station was playing the original 45rpm single. If this is the version used on this LP, then it's in a minority as it's one of the few AUTHENTIC versions on this set. It was issued on ABC-Paramount in the USA and the label and recording was licenced to Festival in Australia in 1962. For Britain the track appeared on HMV in the same year, and by the way, it's a self-penned hit for Tommy Roe.



nboldock 2nd Feb 2015		Is it just me or do the tracks on the sleeve not all correspond to the ones we have listed here? Obviously the artist names need fixing as well.



Neil Forbes 2nd Feb 2015		Hi, George. You know what would've been a great idea? If the record companies kept ONLY the "takes" that were actually used for the singles or album tracks that were ACTUALLY issued by those companies(like EMI, Warner, RCA, Motown, Stax, etc.) and WIPED, ERASED, OBLITERATED the rejected versions that never saw the light of day through those labels, then those labels themselves, along with the likes of Ronco, K-Tel, TeeVee, Concept, Music World or any other re-issue label that comes sniffing around, looking for content for their latest "original hits" album, would have absolutely NO CHOICE but to issue authentic product on that album, be it vinyl or CD.



George Slv 2nd Feb 2015		Neil, I have covered all of them. Now I'm trying to investigate the various versions of Sheila. You could check this Youtube post. Oh and note the usual nod to the late-60s punks with B9, thinking it would make them buy it.



Neil Forbes 2nd Feb 2015		Hi, R.C.! The albums you mentioned were recorded by a studio musician(usually uncredited), particularly for the label, but when labels like this try to put out "original artists/original hits" compilations, you can bet your last dollar that hardly ANY of the tracks will be "original".



Record Collector 2nd Feb 2015		I have a couple of albums through teevee one is moog plays abba and the other star wars that album later issued on rainbow



Neil Forbes 2nd Feb 2015		B1 is a re-recording? How many more of these tracks are thus? I look on labels like these(TeeVee, Ronco, Concept, Music World and latter K-Tel) has highly suspect as you can't trust them to use authentic versions. No good saying "what do you expect for $(whatever number)", I expect at least they make the effort to get the proper authentic versions to justify the price they charge, whatever that price may be.



George Slv 1st Feb 2015		Rhythm Of The Rain is also a rerecording. I'm trying to investigate whether there were two recordings or masters made at the time of 16 Candles.
