The ShadowMusic Web Community

Due to the generous assistance of several other posters, I have been able to place more detailed images of the Shadows' EP and LP sleeves in the website galleries.

...takes you to the UK LP section. We are currently up to "Shadow Music" (1966) with more to be uploaded imminently, starting with "Jigsaw".

... takes you to the International LP section (though there's currently only one - rare - LP sleeve uploaded there).

...links to the EP section (UK and international). There are currently 35 EP sleeve frontal shots, 34 reverse shots and one disc label. There are - courtesy of Heinz Rolli - 5 more EP sleeves to be added soon.

Many thanks to Charles Campbell for scanning all the LP covers - not an easy task, and one for which I em very grateful.

Each sleeve is accompanied by a commentary. Any discussion or corrections will be most welcome.

Hello, Heinz,

Once more, many thanks for the EP cover scans. Those three ("...Talented Shadows", "Themes From Aladdin" and "Alice In Sunderland") complete the UK EP count for the gallery. I'll include them as soon as I've done a tiny bit of editing and written the commentaries.

Best wishes,

JN

A quick update on these record sleeve galleries...

I've just uploaded Charles Campbell's excellent scans from the sleeve of the 1969 compilation LP "Somethin' Else!" as well as a fairly lengthy commentary of my own on that important (of its type) release. The front cover image and the accompanying screed can be found at:

Just to update on the LP/EP galleries, we (Charles, Heinz and I) are now up to "Shades Of Rock" (the second UK Shads LP release of 1970), with "Mustang" the next to do. The EP gallery will be completed (in UK terms) when I upload the last three "missing" items which Heinz has now kindly provided.

"Mustang" LP (Music for Pleasure, 1972) images now written up and uploaded. Credits to Charles Campbell.
