£41 IN THE UK BUT MY SHOP MAY HAVE OVERPRICED IT

THIS RETAILED AT £41 IN THE UK, PRETTY STEEP FOR AN EP
|
|
my copy has a sticker stating 'Pressed in Poland', any other locations stated?
|
|
Different release and b-side and listed separately, nice item

Is this a different mix or just the standard night Version?

Kind of basic sleeve and inners, almost base minimum. Could have done a lot more to justify the price, still it's great album from a time when the world was at their feet.
|
|
Very hard to identify your own pressing! Mine has exactly this label layout but is solid orange not orange/yellow fade.
|
|
There's probably a very good reason it looks like that, it is what it is!
|
|
Great sounding vinyl and lovely packaging; textured sleeves and printed inners. Bonus, I now have Mr.Ferry's signature at last.

Gary Kemp should hang his head in shame over this. He allegedly took charge over the project and has delivered a terrible remaster and incomplete additional tracks. The other albums he worked and are not bad at all but this, arguably their best work,...

Just a heads up, people selling this for crazy dollar! It is still available on the official website shop for £20.
|
|
Just spinning this for the first time, last time I heard this album was on CD in 2002 so this is a real revelation Sounds great on my modest system, very smooth. I like the colour, seems to be lifted from the theme of the sleeve and is nice and solid...

Yes those straight edges really bring home how thick a 180g album is. Would have liked a tri-fold sleeve instead of all 3 in a single sleeve although the inners are OK. DL would also have been nice too.

They should rename it vinyl hour. As most HMVs were closed down I have to travel an hour to get to my closest and missed this lovely resissue. At 6pm stock went on line, everything was available but this. Guess I'll have to wait for the 45th...

That's a pain, it wouldn't fit in my storage....almost glad I couldn't find one now!
|
|
How do they make 333 copies from 33 recycled copies of I and II? Macca magic? At least only 15 people have this, on discogs anyway, should be plenty left!!
|
|
Agreed it is great but totally sold out on pre-order before release date.
|
|
I love his vocal on a With a Little Luck. If it's not here, can you add it?
|
|
I saw tons of U2 in my locals, they both only got 2 copies of DD each. I hopefully got one when they went online at 6, a little over the odds but worth it; I'm waiting to hear from them saying they messed up the order - hopefully not! Tons being...

Crazy lack of availability on this one, no chance for moi!
|
|
What a shame, it is one of the best tracks from a great album. My green has no such problem.
|
|
It is also really unlikely that all 500 owners of that limited edition of 500 would be users of Discogs. I expect there are a lot more than 500 copies out there.
|
|
My black vinyl does not sound that good tbh, I thought it was my deck but checked everything and played another new release and it's fine. PG is crackly and jumpy. As an aside, any idea why there is no country of manufacture assigned to this?
|

Nick Beggs was bassist and second lead singer in Kajagoogoo; did you mean 'Nick begs that someone will be sued'?
|
|
|
Legality aside, this comes from a time when DD could put together an interesting set list.
|
|
Two people have the'only one known copy'? Who's not being truthful?

This tulip tune is buzzin; - Steve Conry 1997 Stockport

I think it is that the discography on the inner is printed on a pink background not yellow.

There i a separate listing for this misprint, maybe you have seen it since your post.

I don't remember spotting the misprint until i came to add it to my collection,

The most random colour choice imaginable. Grey, clear, grey splatter, silver, black; all work better than this Tango moment.

Thanks Solar, see svsol's response for the full story. I got the first album on clear too but have not opened it. interesting they decided to mix up the tracks like that, I know that different versions were used on prior represses.
|
|
|
That's interesting, thanks. I've only got various European issues so had never seen it...now I'll have to get myself a US pressing. I find remarkable that WB did not think people would recognise her, following the first 2 albums she was huge. It...

I opened mine, I don't think it will become hugely valuable. The vinyl sounds a bit flat, but I think that's the recording not the pressing. The gold itself is very disappointing, I'd call it more like caramel.
|
|
|
Interesting it has no lettering on the front cover, has True Blue been released like that before?
|
|
So funny that the cat no. for this is NUMBER ONE; the Smash Hits magazine top rival.
|
|
....but not actually The Snowman which was released in 1982. possibly that inspired Midge et al?
|
|
Nobody has opened it! Shame I bet it sounds great.
