Interesting indeed. This is a Barbados pressing, recognizable by the pressing ring and the CARIFTA sticker on the sleeve. Had it been a Beatles LP I would have bought it for that price...l Seller has a true Decca WTB for sale as well. |

Nice one Henry. I have a copy of Blast From Your Past from Barbados on one box Parlophone. Still don't have any of the regular Beatles LPs. Not for lack of trying, they're just too damn expensive. |

I assume they were adapted from UK ones. On reflection, I'm not sure if they are one box or two box. |

No, that one has a Barbados label (http://www.45worlds.com/vinyl/album/pcs7170bb ), the UK never had this album on Parlophone (only Apple and MFP), but there are UK one box labels that were used for Barbados pressings, e.g. Sgt. Pepper. Also Abbey Road export labels, with Made in Barbados overprint. And Hey Jude iirc. Not sure if UK 2 box labels were used in Barbados. Has anyone seen those ? It seems that some LPs released in Barbados up to 1973 exist with UK and Barbados EMI labels, e.g. Band on the run, red and blue albums, Imagine. Possibly the Barbados EMI labels were used for repressings ? |

Servi, are you sure about the one box Barbados Sgt. Pepper? I know of HJ and LIB (and the overprinted AR), but not Sgt. Pepper. If so, that is an amazing find and I'd love to see photos. |

Yes, absolutely sure, but still not succesful in finding a copy after many years..... I wish we never started to discuss Barbados (or Nigeria, or Kenya) on this forum. Now the whole world knows and therefore these can never be had cheap anymore :) Posted Image Posted Image |
