Title: BB Vinyl Record Question Post by: Shane on October 11, 2011, 10:49:06 PM Today, I wandered into a local thrift shop, and was completely shocked to find a Capitol Record Club issue of the Sunflower LP in the dollar LP bin. In doing some research, this led me to an interesting thread on this board from a few years back, concerning different label variations of these Capitol Record Club LPs. That thread can be found here: http://smileysmile.net/board/index.php?topic=8012.0
This then leads me to my actual question. Regarding NON-record club LPs from 1962-1967... did these LPs ever remain in print long enough to be reissued on late-1970s and early 1970s Capitol labels, such as the "Subsidiary print" label, the lime green label, or the red label? I've never seen any copies of those before.

Sounded superb (still do).
I have Surfin USA, Surfer Girl, Deuce Coupe on yellow; Xmas LP and Summer Days were reissued in 1978 in the UK on a purple label. Don't know if that helps.

Little Deuce Coupe ST 1998 Black (1963), Black (with Subsidiary) (1968/69), Lime Green (1969/71, Red (same label design as Lime Green) (1971), Orange (with gold Capitol at bottom) (1972) The Beach Boy's Christmas Album ST 2164 Black (1964), Black (with Subsidiary) (1968/69) Beach Boys' Concert STAO 2198 Black (1964), Black (with Subsidiary) (1968/69) Title: Re: BB Vinyl Record Question Post by: Shane on October 12, 2011, 11:23:23 PM Thanks for the info. It makes sense the Christmas album would stay in print through label changes, as it has a bit of resurgence of popularity every December.
