Reviews
My version is the deep groove one:
"The early ‘wide band deep groove’ label – these are the most collectable of the Decca pressings and date from the late 50s to the mid to late 60s. The ‘deep groove’ is the circular indentation about 1cm from the edge of the label. Apparently this groove is caused by the conversion of old 78rpm pressing plants to the production of 33rpm LPs – the groove coincides with the label position of old 78s. Sound wise these are stunning, real valve technology stuff. "- Dear contributors,
I own a near mint 1965 copy of this release but it's the "wide band deep groove", with 'ffss' on the label. I can't seem to find said release, only the current "wide band". I have been using discogs only recently and was wondering if it's possible to copy this release and add it as a new one, without having to complete every single field as a completely new release?
