LP Labels (the circular bits glued on the vinyl)


Recommended Posts

Thread as requested in Post a Pic thread.

Labels you find interesting, evocative, nostalgic, attractive etc.

A few from my (over-active) nostalgia banks:

Always liked that one much more than what they replaced it with...

...or...

These two evoke my late-70s first steps into jazz:

(n.b. I only ever owned one of those as LPs - but had plenty of LPs with those stickers).

Awesome !

That Plastylite Andrew Hill test pressing was also one heck of a find, John.

Probably about £1.50 in Asmans back in the 80s. No cover though. It was an especially good find as Smokestack was very hard to find at the time.

I was there Bob.My first jazz concert

Saw them in the Autumn (Fall) of '58 at the Bodega club in Cross Street, Manchester - no recording, though. :smirk:

My first jazz concert was the Humphrey Lyttelton band - the "Kansas City" one with saxophone section of Tony Coe, Jimmy Skidmore and Joe Temperley - at Leeds Town Hall in 1957.

But by 1957 I'd moved onto this (it may say 1949, but it still looked like this);

And this - also bought in 1957 (in Dobell's) - still looked like this:

But those were transitional times for formats and in the same year I got this:
