German DECCA 5Kopf/5Heads covers
Posted by: silkcut1978 ()

Another question, now for the German (?) collectors out there:

- 5 Heads only -

I have 2 different sleeves for the 1st single (Wanne Be Your Man - short bio & long bio), the same for Not Fade Away (short, long) BUT I have It's All Over Now (5 times) and Time Is On My Side (2 times) only with the long bio on the back.

Reprints (counterfeits) from the 80s are available with both variations but are there any original releases of It's All Over Now & Time Is On My Side with the short bio on the back?

Thanks a lot for your help,
silkcut

Hi UrbanSteel - thanks for the info.

What you have on the backside is the so called "long bio" - the short bio misses the promos (Weitere Platten der Rolling Stones & Ein LP-Bestseller) and the red letters "The Rolling Stones" above the text have another layout then on your copy. But anyway, you're artwork isn't a 5Kopf/5Head variation. I can't give you an example at the moment as I'm in office but I'll try to post a scan later on.

There are more variations - there's also on artwork with a pic. from the Stones-stay in Vienna in 1965 (Gloriette), a so-called stairway-cover.

But a typical 5Head is this one (they all look the same except for the inserted titles and of course the different backside variations):

Exactly - may I ask you how much different versions you have?

I will check Dieter's book when I get home from work. I only have a few Deutch records.

silkcut, I'm not an expert of German discography and I don't know exactly when the biography was replaced with the discography. The Schwarzbuch is also quite confused on this aspect.

BTW, the Bible of the singles is Tim who is also a very friendly guy. You can find the contact in his website: [www.stones7.com]
His CD ROM is a must for every collector.

I would have thought that Urban Steel had posted the short bio version, because I have a version of "I Wanna Be Your Man"/ "Money" which has a much longer bio on the back.

thanks for your great help guys !!
so there's at least It's All Over Now with the short bio and no LP add. Another one to look for...;-)
