More crate digging at my favourite second-hand record shop in the cultural mecca that is Bordon, Hants:


Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys

51/100. ยฃ3 and doesn't ever look like it's been played. Sleeve's shagged though. Fame repress from early 80s


Liege And Lief by Fairport Convention

Second Island pressing, bloody good nick too


Songs Of Leonard Cohen by Leonard Cohen

Dug out of the bargain bin for a quid. Original UK CBS pressing


More Specials by The Specials

ยฃ2 to you squire


History: America's Greatest Hits by America

I saw a horse with no name the other day. I decided to call him Frank



Bought on a total whim, as was only ยฃ3 and worth a lot more. If it's shit I'll swap it for 20 copies of No Parlez

Blue Train by John Coltrane

Wanted to pick up Sketches of Spain for $17, but "Depression Cherry" is coming to my Hastings soon, and I need to jump on that.

So today I went to a bookstore that just happened to have a decent collection of used vinyls for sale. I ended up picking up...

Johnny Cash at Folsom Prison by Johnny Cash


Goodbye Yellow Brick Road by Elton John


and

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band by The Beatles



Is there anyway I can tell what year this pressing is?

It's the same look as the one I posted above. I cannot see a date on the vinyl anywhere, so i looked up the code on the back which is SMAS-2653. The website I found has a picture of the same copy as me and says it was pressed on 6/2/67. Could this be an original pressing or am I just getting excited for nothing haha? ๐Ÿคก

Okay, so I did a little bit of research, and apparently there were only three serious pressings of this album on Vinyl. The original pressing, the 1995 re-release, and the 2012(?)-re-re-release. The 1995 edition has a "'Limited Edition' hype sticker on front" according to a listing on amazon.com.

As far as '67 pressings, you need to first determine if it's mono or stereo. A stereo OP will have a yellow band on top with the word "Stereo" written across it. Mono will just be the original album art. The '95 version has white lines across the top and bottom according to a listing on ebay.com.

Anyone want to add to/debunk my claims?

Hah.Not even close.

But yes according to Discogs your pressing is an original 67 pressing. It's relatively common though, as Sgt Pepper was an extremely popular album that sold a lot of copies.

In the last 24 hours:


Hunky Dory by David Bowie

52/100. Original 70s press - cover has a seam split but vinyl looks close to mint


Wicked Ago Feel It by Sugar Minott

1st US Wackies Pressing with red labels. Irie.


Paul Simon by Paul Simon

First UK pressing for 2 squid. Kind of bought with a fellow BEAer in mind. Can you think who?


Waiting For Something To Happen by Veronica Falls

Dragged out the bargain bin at People's Records, Guildford


And Their Refinement of the Decline by Stars Of The Lid

...and after far, far too long waiting (and ยฃ30 later) this, which is currently spinning behind me as I speak

That's one shelf full, one more to go...
