Too bad Dark Round The Edges isn't a vertigo. But ,then again ,it would not be worth more than your house.

Speaking of Colosseum 'Valentyne Suite', the one I just scored today is first press! (Easy to tell - first press Vertigo's say "A Phillips Record Product" on bottom of side B label.)
Somewhere I read that only 89 of these were made for this particular title.

I can't believe this.

Does the label carry 847 900 under the V01 Cat number?

It’s the perfect album on the perfect label and Steve Giles is a top bloke. It just doesn’t get better than a first press DRTE. Just a pity I only have some reissues.

I got one for peanuts a few years ago. I so hope that’s true.
