BEATLES-ROCK'N'ROLL MUSIC (2 VINYL)-1976-FIRST PRESS UK-PARLOPHONE- PCSP719 matrix A1/B1/C1/D1 Rock ’n’ Roll Music - compilation album of songs by the British rock band The Beatles, consisting of previously released tracks by The Beatles, which are, according to many, the quintessence of a style of music called "rock and roll". The album was released in the USA on June 7, 1976 by Capitol Records (catalog number SKBO 11537), in the UK on June 10, 1976 by Parlophone (catalog number PCSP 719); at that time, some media suggested that the album was released on the twentieth anniversary of the first meeting of John Lennon and Paul McCartney. If this was indeed the intention, then EMI made a mistake in their calculations, since in reality these two first met in July 1957. The album's title, Rock ’n’ Roll Music, is most likely taken from a Chuck Berry song, a version of which performed by The Beatles was included on the second side of the album. The album mainly consists of cover versions of songs written by such prominent rock and roll authors and performers of the 1950s as Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Carl Perkins and Larry Williams, as well as notable original songs by the Lennon-McCartney duo, such as "Drive My Car", "Revolution", "Back in the U.S.S.R." and "Get Back". Rock 'n' Roll Music was The Beatles' first album to include the song "I'm Down", which had previously been available only on the "B" side of the single "Help!". ...more

SMOKIE-STRANGERS IN PARADISE-1982-THE FIRST PRESS HOLLAND-RAK-1A-064-64743. Matrices A-1/B-1 . A rare European original. In early 1982, the last album for EMI Strangers in Paradise was released. The album failed in the charts, and it became clear that the members could not recreate their success using their own material. Shortly after the release of Strangers in Paradise, work began on two albums, one of which was released as a Smokie Midnight Delight album, and the other was Chris Norman's solo album Rock Away Your Teardrops. But that Smokie album, that Norman solo album sold poorly. It's amazing how time changes a lot, currently the album is considered one of the rarest and most coveted by fans of the band. ...more
