I have a mysterious record that i was hoping someone can give me some more information about.
Im interested to know about its release, the mis-spelt names and tracks and what it would be worth to sell. Here is what i know:
Title = THE BEALES (spelt wrong on the cover) 1969 - Taiwan Release Liming Record LM -2237
Cover Description (Front) - See photos Cover Description (Back) - All tracks listed with lyrics
Record & Label - Very Good Condition No scratches Number imprint on record Side A = YEX 709-1 LM-2237-1 Side B = YEX 710-1 LM-2237-2
Tracks exactly as written on front cover [Track names are in english with Taiwanese translation underneath - Some tracks are named wrong in english]
SIDE A 1 Back in the U.S.S.R 2 Dear Prudence 3 Class Onion 4 Ob - La - Di, - Ob - La - Da 5 Wild Honey Pie 6 The Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill 7 While my guitar gently weeps 8 Happiness is a warm gun
SIDE B 1 Martha My Dear 2 I'm so tired 3 Black bird 4 Piggies 5 Rocky Raccoon 6 Don't pass 7 Why don't we do it in the road? 8 I will 9 Julia
I hope someone out there is able to help. Thankyou
It appears to be the from the White Album however for some reason there is only one LP. Im not sure if thats how it was released of if the 2nd has been misplaced over the years. I have been looking for more information on this for quite a while and have only found mention of a similar album once however nothing to tell me about its release or worth. So i guess it will remain a mystery album unless someone out there knows anything.
P.S. I advise you that perhaps in the "Selling, Buying, Exchanging" forum you'll find more people interested in these kind of albums, so you'll find more help there. Anyway, it's an album of the guys, so that concerns all of us.
Hehehe Maybe, but they are to be broken... I've posted your topic in the "Selling, Buying, Exchanging" forum with the same title so you can see the answers here and there, if you want.
Check this out: http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/Mezzanine/4889/albuma.html Gives reasons as to why some Aussie releases had different artwork. Look at the horrendous Beatles For Sale Cover. No reason why the original fantastic cover was changed, but I know the new cover was designed by a chap who worked at EMI Australia. Maybe it was just that the local branches/subs of EMI wanted to put their mark on the product.
Hmm nice aren't they I feel they could have been a little more creative with the designs at least. hehe But i guess technology in the way of design was also limited back then compared to now. But still no excuse for the crap yellow cover.
