About this deal

I thought I was getting a bargain, but in the end I have a paper weight that will never see the table again. The two disc and vinyl versions have either as many or fewer songs than the previous multi-platinum collection. Placed in poly liners 3 years ago, vac cleaned tonight with cleaning solution, rinsed with distilled water, vaccumed that off. Diamonds is a greatest hits album by English musician Elton John spanning his hits from 1970 to 2016. Two years later we made the move to our present address, 35 The Headrow, where we have remained ever since.

You can see the telltale dots at the start and end of the pen strokes as well as the judder on some lines. Both records play abysmally, crackling, hissing and surface noise through at least 4/5's of both records. In June 2023, the British Phonographic Industry certified Diamonds quadruple Platinum for sales of 1,200,000 units. The track listing, personally selected by Elton, reflects the setlist with highlights from Diamonds, the Ultimate Greatest Hits Collection.The labels and pressing plants NEED to be made responsible for fixing the never ending vinyl pressing cockups, not retailers.

Quite shameful really, but these 'signed' promotions are far too tempting for some artists not to get involved with. So the 'signed' prints that came with some purchases of the recent EU picture disc and coloured vinyl are actually autopen. In the edit page, go to the 'Metadata' tab and add your Juno artist, label or release page for listeners to purchase your release / releases. The limited edition 3-CD box set version of Diamonds includes a 72-page hardback book with annotations for the stories behind each track and a set of five postcards of illustrations of Elton John by contemporary artist Richard Kilroy. I used my normal ritual in running it through the Spin Clean then the ultrasonic cleaner and then a zap from the zero stat gun and it was a nice listen.It was released in a single disc version, a 2-CD version, a 3-CD deluxe box set, and a 2-LP vinyl version. This blue color edition is really cute, and the liner notes coming with it are pleasant to have and read. Although their collaboration began in 1967, the oldest hit in the album is " Your Song", from John's eponymous 1970 album. The two-CD set (34 tracks) comes in standard jewel case packaging with a 16-page booklet while the 180g double vinyl package comes with printed inner sleeves and a download code.
