VINYL
OF THE MONTH
Love
and Fantasy
01.12.05
OK - German artist, german release - v. rare too. Another purchase
of Mr Thing's whilst shopping on tour in Europe in 2004. We like the
headphones too.
Tijuana
70
01.11.05
This record was in the very first batch of covers to be archived.
It's got that 'Zorro' feel about it. Smoking may not be big, or clever
but, as seen here, it is sexy.
Top
of the Pops '71
01.10.05
One of the strangest covers yet. This model appears on more covers
than any other (see 'Miss Vinyl' tag) but this one? Ahh the wholesome
way pop music was sold to 'the kids' back in 1971.
More
Persuasive Percussion 01.09.05
A quality cover from the quality 'Command' label. Chicks on vinyl
is currently being re-developed with plus more scope for users to
comment on images etc. Watch this space.
Hot
Hits 17 01.08.05
Just one of the 'sporting' themes Hot Hit series. OK - M. Monroe looky-likey
shoots pool in lo cut dress - all farely standard fare but the spiv
in the background? How, why.
