My ONE negative feedback is from a disgruntled seller who listed the item under the incorrect submission, refused to accept this error and also sent the record in thin, flimsy packaging that caused damage. Somehow, this was my fault! Everyone else I have bought from was pleased with their transactions with me and my feedback comments because they understood how to correctly list their items and knew how to package them to ensure safe transit. I gratefully thank those respectful people.
Interested in all things collectable (picture disc, coloured vinyls, boxed sets, promos etc.). Eclectic tastes from Disco and Hi-NRG to rock, pop, chart, indie, Celtic, ambient etc. etc!

How do you know that it's not 24k? It's an MCA release and states on both the hype sticker and the reverse of the tray liner that it's 24k gold. I doubt that MCA would have lied about that. To my ears, this sounds absolutely superb.

Would it have mainly been in English? Perhaps our perhaps not
|

|
25 copies. No wonder that the album is in fact a sales flop
|
|
Yes. The UK promo version included all the tracks from the two CDs on one disc.
|
|
Amazingly, some people think that because there's more than one artist, it's a compilation. This isn't. It contained no previously released music.
|
|
Also recorded by Mel & Kim and reused a year later this one
|
|
Quite a strange 'clear' this; it has a very faint yellow/green tinge to it, rather like the 'Coke bottle' type of clear vinyl that's become popular recently.

Oddly, the only Fish era Marillion single not to have been released as a picture disc
|
|
I wonder why "He Knows You Know" is listed as 'edited 12" version' when it's the same length as the original 12" and LP versions?
|
|
I'm sure that when people consider the classic Fish era Marillion, they think of the monster hit "Kayleigh". However. To my mind, 'Sugar Mice' simply epitomises everything about Marillion from that period. Superb composition, lush instrumentation and...

Not the usual standard of Fish era picture sleeve - was the illustration by Mark Wilkinson?
|
|
The printed wording in the 'picture' that accompanies this release is misspelled - 'e' missing from both "been" and "sleeping".
|
|
I think these coloured versions are very suspicious. They are recent additions and in all my years collecting Bush, I've never seen anything other than the black versions since 1980. And they don't have the runout matrices of the black vinyl equivalents.

I think this cassette is rather suspicious. Too little detail given and featured. What tracks? Length? Same both sides? And why not Harvest or Capitol-EMI?
|
|
No one needs bootlegs, full stop! Why complain about the quality of a gangster funded issue that STEALS music from Mylène?
|
|
Yes. Because the official Hue & Cry website/ webstore states that this issue features a remastered version of the original "Remote" album.
|
|
The British Airways airline ticket from London to Paris was in the name of Mylène Farmer and signed to cabin crew by her. It was a straight photograph of the item and it absolutely did not appear in any way altered.
|
|
It's quite surprising the it was left to MOV to issue this on vinyl rather than Driven By The Music as a double. It should be a double.
|
|
"Tempted" features the uncredited lead vocal of Paul Carrack fact fans.
|
|
This ROCKS! Country-not-country with ... strings! Yes, the clue's in there folks. Ferociously driving guitars, mandolin, banjo and dobro heading towards a relentless onslaught of a riff that gets in your brain and stays there! Urgent, Alec led vocals...

OK so some people have found this pressing to be 'noisy', and not in the good way! I was sceptical about this release based upon the pressing plant used - as I've commented on another review, they can be very hit 'n' miss. I'm pleasantly surprised!...

They are SO hit 'n' miss, mostly miss. It's interesting that recently, some vinyl editions have stickers on the wrap that indicates where it was made, Czech, Germany, France etc. That's great because at least you have the choice to leave it on the racks ....

There was never an official U2 CD called 'Orange', for the fanclub or otherwise. This CD here is an unofficial bootleg and hence not for sale via Discogs
|
|
Then I'm wondering why this hasn't been listed as a misprint?
|
|
I recall, back in the day, reading an interview with Billy in one of the popular music mags (probably NME). He stated that the inspiration for the song were two girls that were referred to around town as 'the party fears two'. Seemingly, these two...

This isn't misprinted. It's merely the UK picture disc flat that was displayed in record stories to promote the picture disc.
|
|
Why is this even listed as a release? There is no 'record' in the true sense of the word because there is no music on this at all! It's a tie-in game that includes a completely blank 12" circular piece is plastic with a hole in to resemble a picture...

The UK were the only territory to release this album on picture disc. And very nice it sounds too! Pressed by Orlake records who technically produced fairly decent sounding picture discs. The die cut sleeve with separate glossy colour 'poster' inner...

Here in the UK, when first released back in 2009 it was played heavily on radio. Oddly, in recent times and especially I think since George's passing, it's rarely heard on Christmas radio schedules. And I think that's because although beautiful and...

The B side "Thinking of you" was MASSIVE when the single was flipped by the DJs in the UK. And soon, it was released in it's own right... and so it should've! This was so a time when Rodgers and Edwards B side tunes were 200% better than anything...

Oh wow! What a SCORCHER of a track, and only sneaked out as a single in the UK. This could, and should, have been a worldwide hit for the Sisters.
|
|
The album includes the original version of the song "All the man I need" which was covered by Whitney and catapulted to the top of the charts (albeit not in duet form as the Sisters did).
|
|
Hi. I have seen the blue vinyl 12" in both company and picture sleeves. Company sleeves were often used at the end of a press run of a single if the supply of printed picture sleeves had been exhausted.
|
|
Shalamar? Surely this is merely Howard providing vocals to a track that was composed for a movie. No Jody, no Jeffery, just Howard. Probably the only reason that Shalamar was credited was to give some sort of kudos.
|

Ties with "The Dominatrix Sleeps Tonight" for best ode to S&M. Or does the original version of "Relax" get that honour?
|
|
The remix of Cherish's "Do it to it" from 2006 that brings this hot r'n'b track screaming into the place it always truly belonged - on everyone's playlist.
|
|
It must be your equipment because my copy plays superbly. The vinyl is extremely quiet with absolutely no surface noise and both sides play through with no problems at all.
|
|
I can't believe how much money some people have parted with to buy this bootleg CD!
|
|
I know what you mean about the random song titles printed on the edge of some of the photo pages. I wondered too if there was some 'meaning' that only super-fans would understand! However, I'm not disappointed with this. It's over 200 tracks for about...

Hi. I posted about the CDs being scratched and found a solution so that your discs will not suffer further damage.

This is an absolutely gorgeous 'goodbye' from Universal to Mylène and her fans' back catalogue. The discs are golden and the 48 page booklet is superb as it contains some great photos and the complete 211 track listing.
One word of caution though:... See full review |

This has to be one of the campest record covers I've ever seen! Outrageous!
|
|
I wonder why Bohlen decided not to release this track as Modern Talking? It was on their first album, so why redo it with these guys (who only ever released this single and are clearly session singers). An odd situation but a superb electro dance...

Initially, orders via her webstore included a signed art card. A lot of the orders were cancelled prior to dispatch, seemingly because Lana's 'wrist was hurting' and she couldn't sign all the cards required. Indeed, only some were signed with the...

I think this is actually a much better LP than the revered previous album, "No: 1 In Heaven". The issue was that aside from the hit single, "When I'm With You" (monster huge in France, oddly) and the complete chart 'miss' of "Young Girls", there were...

This review is for the Repertoire white vinyl LP from 2022. I had two copies, both had splits to the top edges on the (printed) inner sleeves, and one had a slice taken out in the middle of one edge - not sure what was going on there! The vinyl master...

If this single from the forthcoming 'new album' is anything to go by, then Lana fans have a delicious serving of perfect pop to look forward to. Yes, it's undeniably Lana. Yes, it follows her usual (predictable?) style. And yes, it's simply, utterly sublime.

Warped right out of the sleeve and REALLY noisy, surface noise as bad as a picture disc. Oh, look who pressed it... Really sad that this Christmas classic should be treated do shoddily 😥
