Bob James - "One". CTI Records, 1974. Showing side two label here, on purpose, because that's where The Crown Jewel of the album, "Nautilus", can be found: And here's a shot including the same door-knocker used on the cover photo gifted to me by a good friend: ...and, because this tune rules so hard:
My beautiful (though anonymous) white label "Label Copy" of Dancer with Bruised Knees by Kate & Anna McGarrigle. German issue, Warner Bros/WEA, time-stamped on the included info paper as 25/1 1977.
I wonder if that used to be clear. I have a copy of the Talking Heads "Speaking In Tongues" clear Rauschenberg issue that has gradually turned a similar color brown over the years. Like this one from Google:
Right.. I had the Talking Heads LP as well.. No, this is an actual heavy, one sided pressing metal disc.. Precision Lacquer is based in L.A. I have a Cash that is similar. That was a DMM Direct Metal Mastering .
My favourite promos are those that come with press packs or publicity photographs. An added bonus is if they have been signed as well. I have quite a few of these in my collection. Here's Jackson Browne's 'Hold Out'...
'An American Prayer' by Jim Morrison & The Doors. I love the cautionary yellow sticker on the front of the cover
This apparently was not released as a stock single. So, Columbia did a Promo only single of this classic (as pictured here). And this appears to be before their decision for oddball special promo 45 singles to have an AE7 prefix. A year or two later, Columbia set up the AE7 prefix and numbers for promo 45 RPM discs without a commercially available retail counterpart. It was also used for Bonus 7" 33 1/3 discs packed in with retail LP discs, and other such items in terms of Columbia, Epic, and their distributed labels.
No, I can see throght this record. It has become opaque and yellowed. The USD copies were not DMM btw, imports I saw were. A metal acetate would not be clear at all.
Sorry, but I beg to differ.. It is certainly not ''clear'' whatsoever, that is just the photo. I had suggested DMM because it looks very much like another disc I have by Johnny Cash. Taken from the superb Searching For A Gem discography : The Precision Lacquer copper master is single-sided and of Side 2 only, dated "11/16/87". Shenandoah is misspelled "Shannondoah" on all three masters.
