I know yesterday (13th March) was the first time a new PSB track had been played in ages, but (as per the long standing forum rules) in future all public requests for copies of any new track, PSB or otherwise, will be deleted and/or threads containing requests closed. We will officially...

Thank you for the link leesmapman. I was already aware of them and found the last one does not include the first song they played (the Blur song Girls and Boys (PSB Remix)). For some reason it has been omitted from the youtube recording hence why I asked if anyone has their own recording.
Hi,
This is quite rare,japanese promo only.does anyone have this in their collection?,if so what would you say the current value is?....i reckon the £425 on psbdiscography is a bit out of date.

I have the CD but not the folder. When I originally bought it I did not realise that it was part of a package. The slipcase is defaced on the reverse side with 3 unsightly sticky strips where it had presumably been originally stuck to the folder. I have left the strips as they are as trying to...
I know this subject has been covered previously and there are good and bad bootleg items that appear from time to time for sale but what really annoys me is the sellers on eBay who hoodwink people into thinking they are getting a genuine CD rarity when in fact they are just ripping the general...
My PSB collection mainly consists of CD’s as I started collecting in 1986 when CD’s first started becoming commercially available and vinyl was predicted to be eventually consigned to history. How wrong I was and I now wish that I had collected vinyl instead although storage is obviously a bigger...

Lost most of my collection in a fire a few years back (big collection which included every UK release on CD, LP, Cassette, the lot plus lots of imports)
Had some real gems like the Home and Dry Canadian promo CD, 2 copies of Relentless on vinyl (one I used to play and one I kept mint) a 12 UK...
Is it really is such a rarity?
Take a look, please :
In fact, it's actually the first time I've seen this issue on the tape, could it be a white crow or some other limited edition ???

I love the fact that it's in landscape view. Then again I'm a total fan of alternative artworks and often the only upside of cassette tapes was that the sleeve had to be rectangular, so unless the label was lazy and simply pasted a black bar at the bottom with some generic font, they ended up being...
Any hints for decent second hand record stores in London which are likely to have some of PSB's CD singles from the past 10-15 years in stock?
I recall there used to be one somewhere near Notting Hill, and one in/near Berwick St, but that has been some time and I'm not sure about their...

Also visted a few of the stone vinyl stores in London a while back, thinking that it must be the wallhallah for rare vinyls etc, London being such a music city.
Well, the two used vinyl stores in my provincial town in the Netherlands had more of interest than all the London stores combined... most...

Does anyone know where I can find How Can You Expect To Be Taken Seriously (Justified Mix) by David Morales, which is taken from a reel-to-reel tape, and I Want A Dog (House Mix) by Frankie Knuckles, also taken from a tape.
These two mixes appeared at some point on soundcloud, but are now no...
Today I put my hands on an original 1 CD copy of Fundamental UK release on a record fair near home (until today I just had the Argentinean and Japanese releases...) and, to my surprise, an extra card promoting the Ringtones released on that moment was included inside, with the ringtones titles and...
As small as you can see it, this is the Argentinean record for the biggest quantity of maxi-singles released for the same artist, with 6 titles. On the second position you can find The Cure, with 5 titles, then INXS and Genesis with 4, and many others with 3 or less, but no other with 6 releases on...

OK
so further information. there is no enjoy the silence cassette single.
so there are only 2 x depeche mode releases with cassette/12 .
Oh OK!...to tell the truth, I was pretty sure that I saw the Enjoy cassette on that days, but I can be wrong, so I´ll trust in your information! ;)

I have two copies of the US limited (2 discs) release of Disco 2 bought on different places, the problem is that each one have a different kind of jewel case: one with the inner (rotating) tray brown and the other transparent, so my question is which one of this two copies is on the original case...

Thanks a lot for the answers! Do you mean like this one??
This CD is actually pretty good. Great quality and I've never heard some of these in instrumental form before - puts a different slant on the songs. Bolshy being a good example.
Asking for a buddy who got hold of a copy of the very rare Phillipines baseball glove sleeve 12 of Opportunities .

Did anyone else on here order the limited signed print for the RAH show by Pete McKee? Had an email today to say it'll ship before the end of April. I'm hoping it is numbered too. 50 made.
Hi all, completely new to collecting. My dad had the above in pristine condition (passed to me). Just wondering if something like that is a collectible/worth something/will be worth something?
Many thanks...

i'd also reccomend popsike.com because there you'll see *how much peope actually got* when they sold the item on ebay unlike in discogs where you'll just see what some people *would like to get* (discogs has a sales history too but it's a bit hidden)
I guess this would be a good title for a thread on how file-sharing is destroying the old business of being a collector... but actually, it's not about that. I have a tricky question for all the PSB collecting experts out there: namely, how can you obtain the B-side track 'We're All Criminals Now'...

Hi.
I have this cassette with PSB.
I was wondering if it was something for collectors and what it might be worth.
I've got a highend Denon cassette player, only played the tape once and the tape is in very good condition.
Can someone help me please

Please listen to it, if there´s any hearable difference or different tracklength.

See my original response, I already said it :wink:
I think they remain in the unreleased category until today...
Yup, they were only available on the PSB official site for a short time when it was possible to download the stream only material. I think everything was deleted or the site structure was changed when management found out. :wink:...
I watched this auction and nearly put in a last second bid before coming to my senses. Half of me thinks I've been sensible and the other half thinks, Heck you only live once and it got away..

Hi,
Would you consider yourself a hoarder or just a very serious collector?!...do you collect anything and everything regarding PSB?,ie paper cuttings,magazines ads infact absolutely anything regarding PSB?...if so is your collection so big that you simply dont have the space to store it at home...

I recently docummented my whole collection in a photo album, in case anybody's curious:
I try to collect as much as I can without paying more than the price for a regular record, so real collector items are out of the question for me. Also, I only go for variant editions of about the same thing...
Anyone know anything about this? I assume it's a bootleg:

My big question here is if the demos there are sourced from original lossless files, not mp3. If they're lossless, it´s a very good item for any collection!!

I am interested to know if there is more than one actually longbox with/without the double pack.

The UK vinyl is the same - the credits and the blank TV screen design are printed on the reverse of the card so you have to peer inside the cover to read all the details. They've got a history of printing on the inside of record covers - Bilingual has yellow squares inside, Behaviour has bright red...
This cassette had:
Heart (Disco Mix)
Heart (Dance Mix)
Always On My Mind (Extended Dance Mix)
on both sides. I picked it up at a flea market in Cape Town, but sold it a few years later. Does anybody know which country released it?
