Quote: Kenneth @ October 28 2009, 1:02 AM BSTSort-of not really. Henry Badowski was part of Captain Sensible's very short-lived band King, which covered Elton Motello's Jet Boy Jet Girl. Badowski then joined the Damned for a while. And of course the Damned still had Brian James, who had earlier played in Bastard with Alan Timms (aka Elton Motello). Simple.
I'm still trying to remember where my copy of "Jet Boy jet Girl" came from. I know it was free with an album - on Radar I think.

Ah, I meant a yellow Parlophone label rather than yellow vinyl.

I was not previously aware of the significance of the Parlophone labels in denoting the age of Beatles records. So 'black and gold' is a first or second pressing, while third to seventh pressings are 'black and yellow', and everything after that is 'black and silver'? I've just looked through my little stack of Beatles records and only 'Rubber Soul' has the black and yellow label. The rest are all black and silver. I did look on eBay and saw there's quite a bit of bidding on the "yellow vinyl" pressings of Yellow Submarine. I bought mine new out of a discount bin when records were being sold for a dollar to clear space for CDs. I should have bought a pile of them.
I haven't watched this, but apparently it's all about the increasing popularity of vinyl: http://vimeo.com/4552155
