“BOB DYLAN” BOB DYLAN ON CBS BPG 62022 MONO
THIS IS THE EARLIEST UK PRESS 1962 IN MONO .IT WAS PRESSED BY PHILLIPS ON BEHALF OF CBS DENOTED BY THE MATRIX 1L/2L.
THE VINYL LOOKS N.MINT WITH ITS ORIGINAL SHEEN AND LUSTRE BUT THERE ARE SOME SPINDLE MARKS AND SOME REMOVAL LINES BUT STILL PLAYS TO AN AUDIO OF EXC+.
THE LAMINATED COVER WITH FLIPBACKS IS IN NR.MINT COND. UNBELIEVABLE TO SEE AFTER 60 YEARS. ITS STILL HAS A SUPER CLEAN BACK, ONE SMALL FEATHERING ON FRONT NEAR OPENING.ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE.
THIS IS A VERY RARE RECORD IN THIS CONDITION NOT TO BE FOUND EASILY.
I HAVE PULLED SOME INFO OFF OF DISCOGS THAT REFERS TO THIS ISSUE THAT YOU MIGHT FIND HELPFUL.
The earliest UK pressings were by Philips on behalf of CBS (CBS did not have their own UK pressing plant until late 1964).
This version has matrix numbers ending in "1L" & "2L" as used by Philips when pressing mono records.
Unique to this version:
- On back cover "BPG 62022" is left of CBS logo in top-right corner, with no mention of "MONO" as on later sleeves
- On back cover sleeve printer is not credited, later sleeves credit "Garrod & Lofthouse"
- "O/TI" (OT) UK tax code as found embossed around spindle hole on Side 1 label was in use between 1961-07-26 and 1962-04-10. This album was released on 1962-03-19, so this indicates this version was released between 1962-03-19 and 1962-04-10 and is a very early, if not the first UK pressing.
- Spine reads "CL 1779" "BOB DYLAN" "BPG 62022", later spines read "CBS" "BOB DYLAN" "62022"
(not sure if this also applies to Bob Dylan as others below)
Also for this version (as on Bob Dylan, another early Philips UK pressing):
- On front cover "BPG 62022" is below CBS logo in top-left corner
- On back cover "CBS is a trademark..." text is in bottom-left corner
- On label matrix numbers are “BPG 6022 1L” / “BPG 6022 2L”
- In runouts matrix numbers also include “1L” / “2L” and the UK code "420"
- On label "RECORDING FIRST PUBLISHED 1962"
- On label A1 reads "She's No Good"
- On label A5 reads "Fixin' To Die Blues"
- On label A7 reads "Highway 51 Blues"
Barcode and Other Identifiers
- Matrix / Runout (Side 1 label): BPG-62022 1L
