Mal C Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 Been a little while since we had a record scan fest, I've meant to do Bobby Bland one for ages, so here goes from around the globe. The Aussie W&G is the best made release you will get from down under, Festival made discs are shocking quality, this is as thick as a One Dearful 45, PROPER chunk of vinyl, and sounds great! Canadian ones look Great also, Its only recently I've been picking up the red ones though, anybody seen demo's on these, or are the red's Demo's? Mal.C.

Mal C Posted May 29, 2010 Author Share Posted May 29, 2010 The more common Orange and Pinks Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Mal C Posted May 29, 2010 Author Share Posted May 29, 2010 (edited) Only yank Orange or Pink I don't have, Sad feeling is a Great 45, very underrated, or maybe just missed, anybody know who the male and female singers are on this 45, cause it does not say on the Canadian Issue?? One of the nice French EP's as well, cover is in the post below, and the 45 Release of getting used to the Blues.. M Edited May 29, 2010 by Mal.C.

Here are a few others: cool, Sad Feeling on a Yank Orange, ssame again no credits for the two singers on this song... Its become a firm favorite of mine, real Moody striding pace.. EP's, so I have NO5, you can put your hand up for NO1 and NO4, do we know what else came out? Pikeys Dog who I remember from Dave Flynn's site, mentioned ages ago these would have come with Pic sleeves, but I've never seen one.. M Edited May 29, 2010 by Mal.C.

M Righto, The Jukebox Compact 33s (the ones numbered 1 thru 5 - which is the entire album split over 10 sides) came in a branded envelope stating 'Seeburg Album of the Week' or similar - these packs included title strips and paper 7" reproductions of the album sleeve for putting in the Jukeboxes. The Jukebox EPs with more than 1 track per side came in thick card 7" sleeves with the album coverslick pasted on one side - these also include title strips and smaller (approx 2" square) 'album cover' artwork for placing in the jukebox. I don't have the EP, but I do have the pack of five with everything except the 7" sleeve art (but a friend of mine does have this which is how I know it exists...)

Guest TONY ROUNCE Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 Here's one that I bet not too many people on here will have: This was 'The Man's very first record. It's actually a duet by Bobby and Rosco Gordon, although Rosco is the only artist credited for some reason. As you'll notice, though, 'Robert' gets the writer credit. It's not much of a record in truth but, hey, everyone's got to start somewhere! I've also got maybe 8 or 9 BB 78s on Duke, too - I'll scan a few when I have a bit more time and inclination (too hot and bothered now!) Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest TONY ROUNCE Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 ...and here a few more of my BB 78s: ...apologies for the musihiness of one or two of the scans, my scanner is not so hot... More to follow! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest TONY ROUNCE Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 (edited) ...and some more as promised: ...I do have a few more besides these, but they're inaccessible at the moment. FYI "I'm Not Ashamed"/"Wishing Well" was the last Duke release to appear on both 78 and 45. All subsequent Bobby Bland releases were 45 only. Talking of 45s, here's one that I picked up in Memphis last Saturday: ...I've never seen a demo before and I'm quite intrigued to see that both sides were XXX'd as the 'A' side! Happy viewing...
