CBS original orange label collectable vinyl…

CBS was starting to dominate the ‘Miscellaneous’ section of this site, so it now gets its very own section…there’s some highly collectable rarities on this label as well as fairly run of the mill stuff, but have a browse through anyway! Enjoy.

Yet another Black Sabbath swirl label variation…

Posted by r3c0rdc0113ct0r on April 9, 2013
Posted in: A PHILIPS RECORD PRODUCT, Black Sabbath, Vertigo. 1 Comment

Thanks to David from Co. Durham, we now have another label variation (of the second pressing large swirl label) to add to the existing known ones. This new one features slightly different positioning of the text, most notably the track listing for side 2 which features a different alignment for track 3…further to the left than the other labels…

Interesting Led Zeppelin II label variation…

Posted by r3c0rdc0113ct0r on April 3, 2013
Posted in: Atlantic, Led Zeppelin. Leave a comment

The never-ending Zeppelin label variations goes on and on…sharp-eyed David from Consett, Co. Durham has spotted on the B side of the ‘Killing Floor’ label that track 2, “Livin’ Lovin’ Maid (She’s A Woman)” has had an extra word added to make the title “Livin’ Lovin’ Maid (She’s Just A Woman)”. But perhaps even more interestingly, the songwriting credits have also been changed to include John Paul Jones real name of ‘Baldwin’…but only on the B side, ‘Jones’ still appears on the A side credited for ‘Whole Lotta Love’…I feel an entire book might be coming on just for Led Zepp labels!
