Elephant UK Vinyl

Post by vaultcollector »

Hey guys,

Been looking around to complete my White Stripes LP collection and I wanted to ask a question - How do I know the difference between the initial release of Elephant UK vinyl and re-issue version as the XLLP catalogue numbers are the same.... I want to collect the original releases not the repress... same with other releases. Cheers

The originals are likely to be a bit warped...

At least mine was.....

I thought there was only ONE XL version of Elephant (promo copy aside), there are 3 different XL WBC and one of the rest.

Does this mean I need to add this to my ISO? Please help. Took me years to track down both opaque versions of White Blood Cells, the only difference is the matrix numbers

The UK XL first pressing has DAMONT in the run-off and the sleeve is slightly darker than the second pressing.

Edit: Now that i look again, the second is darker in places, but the contrast on the second pressing is more pronounced. The first is on the left.
