BB LUCKY DIP's #126

Lucky Dip's will be a mystery gift to those who choose to pick them up. 


Today's links: VERTIGO Albums    Part 13  (121 - 130)


“… it was clear that nobody was expecting anything like this. Many wouldn’t have heard any prog rock before, or had only heard the kind of prog that gave the genre a bad name. This was a performance to convert the sceptics.”     Bob Leiser

Vertigo Records is a record company that originated in the United Kingdom. It was a subsidiary of the Philips/Phonogram record label, launched in 1969 to specialize in progressive rock and other non-mainstream musical styles. Today it is operated by Universal Music Germany, and the UK catalogue was folded into Mercury Records, which was absorbed in 2013 by Virgin EMI Records, which was renamed back to EMI Records in June 2020.

  4. Hi BB !
    I've just ended to control this DIP # 126. All is correct except nr 122 (Crickets) 12 songs missing & nr 123 (Atlantis) whose date of 1st release is 1972 GER (ref 6360 609). The british LP under the same ref has been released in 1973.
    Re Crickets, 4 versions :
    1) LP VEL-1020 USA, swirl label - promotional copy not for sale
    2) LP 6360 104 NL, spaceship label
    3) LP VEL-1020 CND, spaceship label
    4) LP VEL-1020 USA, spaceship label

    salutations amicales,
    Dominique
