I know I shouldn't have opened it up. At the time I didn't know vinyl would be available and I was just dying to hear it on a record. I don't even know the event that it was signed at, becuase I bought it on ebay for like $25.
Id love to know where it was signed by all 4. yet another stones mystery.

The autographs are fake. So 25 for the vinyl is ok.:-)

My wife bought me an 'autographed' copy of Love You Live, just the vinyl, with the autographs on the vinyl.

A lovely thought and I believe she spent $100 on it.

I'm not much of an autograph hound, but I didn't let her know that of course. I am curious as to whether they are fakes as well. I'll find and post.

Wow...very cool link, thanks for that. Didn't realize that the album was available in Germany PRIOR to the sleeve being completed. Love to know the story behind that one!

Thanks all ><!!

My latest purchase. The Lord's Taverners Charity Album is the title usually given to an album produced by Decca in 1965, featuring 14 artists under the Decca label (Decca LK 4695). Decca itself advertised the album under the name of 14 Great Artists, while the name on the sleeve is 14 New Recordings. In the United States the album was released as England's Greatest Hitmakers.
The sleeve also carries this text:
"The profit from this record will be donated to the Lord Traverners for the National Playing Fields Association, together with the royalty which has been personally given by each of these famous artists."
This text is missing from the US version, which also has a more prominent title.
All songs were recorded specially for this album and had never been released before.
This is the regular mono copy with the sample mono test pressing.

This are pics of my copy of the US version of 14 great artists England Greatest Hitmakers promo copy.
The text from Wikipedia says "The profit from this record will be donated to the Lord Traverners for the National Playing Fields Association, together with the royalty which has been personally given by each of these famous artists."
This text is missing from the US version, which also has a more prominent title.
I see that this text is also on the US version but maybe only on the promo copy, i don't know, i can be wrong. Can anyone confirm that this text is also on the non promo copies?

Here is a recent one. Got it 6 month ago, but my links didn`t work. Great sound quality and great cover work. A real fun to listen. So if they only would make an official release there would be no need to release stuff like this .

Damm that is cool, I want one!

The Definition of insanity is for the Stones to release the deluxe rereleases and then not fleece us with vinyl versions.

Completely stoopid...both for Some Girls and Exile.

Very nice boot!!
Here's another one; they even used the cat # for Jumping Jack Flash...

I've managed to order me one of those Some Girls Outtakes Lps.
Can't wait to get it!

It works out about £17 GBP inc. postage. Pretty good deal.

That`s ok. They sold it for 20 € in record stores (6 month ago). But there are different versions. Did you order the one I posted?

I'm pretty sure it's the same one. I shall confirm when it gets here.
Have you got the Exile one they did too?

Are these fakes, or authentic? Love it if they actually did an official vinyl release for this, but I didn't think that was in the cards?

Yes, the vinyl is ok but it was more "bootleg - style" with just an inlay.
Well there is another SG -bonus tracks- version around with a different cover and it is told that they have a skip on one track. But I don`t want to worry you. If you get the version I posted you`ll have fun.

I don't often collect fakes (well, at least not intentionally!), but this might be nice. I know there were some fakes for vinyl versions of both 40 Licks and Live Licks that I avoided. Not sure if anyone got those.

If so, are they interesting?

So my Some Girls out-takes L.P. arrived.
Sadly it had a big crack right through the first track.
The seller kindly sent out a replacement that very same day.

It has arrived today and it looks wonderful.
Sadly I have never seen a record so badly cut off centre, the arm on my Thorens looks like it is swaying to the music. It sounds quite horrid.

I guess this will just be an item to look at rather than listen to. Oh Well.

Sorry,vudicus, did you get the one I posted ? Sounds horrid? Mine sounds like an official recording!

Tom

Two different demo copies of the EP Got live if you want it. The stickered demo is the export copy, non-stickered is the regular UK copy.
The export copy has one song less (route 66).

No worries,
It was the same one.

I played the cracked one (avoiding the crack obviously) and Side 1 was cut dead centre and sounded fine, Side 2 was slightly off but nowhere near as bad as the replacement. This one is really bad, I guess I've just been unlucky.
It's a shame the pressing engineers don't care enough about what they're doing to make sure the sides are aligned properly for each batch.

I could keep trying to get a good one like yours, but I'll probably wait util I find one in a store or record fair where I can try before I buy.

The story behind it as far as I can tell - corrections are more than welcome !

German DECCA used British sleeves a few times and for Throught The Past & Let It Bleed they put out Express-Ausgaben (express releases).

1) Their Satanic Majesties Request:
German DECCA used both - with and without 3D-image - sleeves from the UK before they finally had a fold-out sleeve ready without the 3D-image. In fact I have a 3rd variation with the 3D-image glued upside down but that one's rather a "misprint".

2) Through The Past Darkly
released with an Express-artwork to be on time with the release date before the lay-out sketch was available

3) Let It Bleed
same as above

4) Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out!
the most interesting one - the 1st edition was made in England (both, cover and LP) but with the GERMAN order-number.
That's what I wrote about it on my web-site:

Because of problems in the German record-plant Nortorf English DECCA
was assigned to produce 2,000 records and covers for the German market.
Both, the cover and the labels come with the German order-number and
with the GEMA-imprint on the labels. This 2,000 copies were sold 2 weeks
prior to the very first original German release. see here: [www.vinylstones.org]

Sorry to hear that...I guess quality control is suffering in the bootlegger's market!

Thanks for that...at what point did they switch to the white DECCA label for the GEMA pressings, or are the blue labels the UK ones you referenced?

Question-anyone know about a small letter "d" instead of a capitalized one on UK demostration or test pressing 45s? Is this legit? I've seen this on a Get off My Cloud/I'm Free single.
