France turned up quite a lot of good EPs

absolutely overjoyed this morning, at last I have an Aussie Gene McDaniels on Liberty, thats the LP and all the better 45's that came out complete... I have a 'Completeness' feeling this morning!!!

 

you might notice that the LP sleeve is the same as the USA one, its actually a USA one with the LPR-325 cat number of the bottom right and on the disc its self, other than the sleeve inside being the plastic Aussie one, its a USA printed LP Sleeve. sorry bout the LP disc scan, cold not get it flat...

A Brace of Canadian Mimm, s arrived today.

Here's some Italian Motown. Not sure if they are really 1st issue or early 70s 2nd releases.

OK, I once saw a dealer selling a copy of the Jackie Day EP.

 

Would have liked it but at the eight hundred quid he was asking, i thought it better to pass.

seeing the numbering and that RCA were responsible for the distribution, i would put them as first pressings.

Not that I know of. Pete S claims he once had a german issue for sale. But no other proof so far.

 

Not sure, I definitely had a Canadian one - but if I said I had one, I did have one.  I had a lebanese Earl jackson once..

Christ, thats extortionate... pay £200 over here, no doubt you could get it cheaper down under... I was paying under 15aud for most stuff when I lived there, if it was special it might have gone upto $60 say.. but only on things like Sue Barker LP, stuff like that...

Worth risking the danger of getting there and looking for a copy

I couldn't see any old fashioned black & silver TM labels in Italy so I guess you're right.   Trust the Italians to use flair and colours

Just won this, which I'd totally forgot about as a track... hadn't heard it since the eighties on a Kent Lp..

There has to be a comment about JS and Vernon girls but not worth a visit from the site moderator.

 

No doubt a first pressing.

Just got these from Turkey

 

 

is the Edwin Starr sleeve from Turkey? Looks like the French sleeve. Does the numbering on the sleeve match the record?.
