I know very well the difference between U.K. and England. The matter is that vinyl records sometimes read 'Made In England'(DECCA Records) and sometimes read 'Made in U.K.' (RSR). It's not the core of the matter, to me. The point is that I collect vinyl pressed in U.K./GB/ England, in the USA and in the EEC/EU. As a consequence, I'm trying to figure out if there'

The last RS vinyl pressed in England was issued in 1997. Since 1998, only Made in EU records. What if the U.K. will leave with no deal? Are they supposed to start issuing Made in England records again? Merry Christmas to everybody and BV,

black vs red vinyl For those who care, the seller who's sent a black copy instead of a red one to me says it's been a mistake at the shop: the original disc was damaged and the shop assistant has changed it. Most probably, he picked a black one and not a red copy. I'll be refunded 100%. Still, we learn that at Carnaby St. one can buy the export copy to Japan that should not be

Yes, it's a heavy cellopane bag with flip-back (like an envelope). The 'red vinyl' sticker is place on it. The red sticker I talk about is something similiar to what they made to tell one coloured 'Some Girls'from another: a small red, yellow, azure and green sticker to tell which vinyl is inside. In this case, to tell the black from the red one.
Forum: Tell Me

It sounds strange to me that someone can decide to split the red vinly and the additional cover: they both would loose their appeal. I prefer to believe that someone took the wrong -8 and put it inside my Carnaby cover. If they'd only put a small red sticker on shrink... I've enquired the seller, but still no reply. Honestly, I believe he's not involved, but I'd appreciate a

Thanks for your input. so, now we know that some copies made in EU just to be exported to Japan were sold as if they were red at the store, once put in additional plastic cover actually. I'd suggest everybody check your spine, before you open the shrink: you might have spent a lot of money for a black copy.

No test pressing: mine it's a finished copy - with proper labels - and I can confirm the cat. no. is 089 396-8 (on spine and lables). Bar code on rear, top right corner, seems to be the usual one. I will check when at home. Just bought another copy guaranteed to be red, I am wainting...

I got my copy (from ebay) right now. Well, the vinyl inside is not red, it's black. Anybody here has got a black copy?

Honestly, I can’t tell the reason why this special record has attracted so many buyers and, above all, why we are ready to spend so much to get it. It’s not the first time they release a limited edition. Still, the most of them are easily available, years after they were issued. At reasonable prices, too. On the other side, classic rarities that sold at €3500 (mono Got LIVE UK) nowadays are as ch

In my opinion, the vinyl records one should have are the entire US and UK discogrpahies. Nothing else, nothing more. I can say so after 40+ years of record collecting and after having spent a lot after 'useless' pressings from almost every place of the planet. A British group that invaded the USA: this is what we're talking about. That said, I do buy records coming from Canada and

Look on eBay and you’ll easily find them. Some of these sellers use the genuine record inside fakes glamour covers. Some others even modify the labels.

Collecting singles is a wonderful and endless adventure, but I've now decided to strip my collection down to UK, US and EU releases. Still, if you consider all the aspects of such a collecting activity (covers, labels, data on vinyl) you have to look for circa 400 UK records and no less than 600 from the USA. And I might be conservative... You've a long way to go. Recently, I've

Hi everybody, the ongoing thread discussing the source of each song on 'Exile On Main St.' has made me realise that we'd better talk about creative rolls, instead.
