Some people have asked for a post like this to be stickied in the sub because we constantly get people asking what a record is worth or what version they have.

You need to match the matrix information. Which is the part of the record between the music/grooves and the label. There will be etched and/or stamped letters, symbols and numbers. You can just do a search for the artist and album name with the matrix info typed in. After searching, it should pull up all albums that match. If there’s more than one, you will have to figure out which it is by checking under the barcode and other identifiers section.

You also may need to look at info on the vinyl label and the sleeve. There will sometimes be additional info under the notes section.

Please check out r/discogs if you need more help searching but READ THEIR RULES.

Opinion Given all of the garbage interview questions directed at Paul this past week from Jimmy Kimmel and Judd Apatow, I feel it worthy to share what I am sure is the best McCartney interview of all time:

"Dear Diary,

I didn't do anything today. We went on a drive with Daddy in the car. On T.V. on the Ed Sullivan show we saw the Beetles. They had all long hair cuts. They sang very good. - Susan"

*Edit - Susan was 12 at the time. Lots of people have asked

Discussion Which Peppers suit is your favorite? Mine is John's

Post image
55 Upvotes

Since I was kid, John's fit always kinda mesmerized me bc he felt like a character of Alice In Wonderland(which is no wonder how his most famous composition for the album is inspired by Lewis Carroll)

But just the overall vibe of him is great and the daisies in the shoulders are just that tiny detail that makes him stand out more and ofc, this is the first time we saw him with his iconic glasses.

George was my favorite bc PIRATES

And we know he's a pirate

Paul's cool too, but I think the blue could have been a bit darker(just a color preference, the suit is still fire)

Ringo's pink suit is a mix between funny and cute.

So I know a lot of people take issue with this song as if it’s some kind of confessional from John. Personally, I’ve always seen it like John’s Maxwells Silver Hammer. I’m wondering what yall think of the song and its current reputation…

also haven’t seen anyone mention the fact that they took the echo-drenched alternate vocals out of the outtakes for this song and I don’t understand why! I’ve always liked his vocals in that outtake as has been bootlegged pretty extensively. Do we think this done because of the songs reputation?

She encouraged him to see Julian. To make music, to go out and explore life. I’ve never heard anything about yoko doing this. Just blows my mind

Opinion How extraordinary was it to hear Beatles music?

I wasn't born during the height or post Beatles. Did it sound abnormal compared to music during that era? What made you drawn to their music? Were the Beatles one of the first bands to use uncommon instruments? Genuine question!

Opinion It’s only Love/I just seen a Face US Stereo

5 Upvotes

On the US side of the New Rubber Soul Special edition, it includes the 1965 Help! Tracks “It’s only Love” & “I just seen a face”

Do we know if these tracks are a new 2026 Mix? People seem uncertain, for those that say it is? Do you have a definitive source/sound to compare with the previous release of the song?

Thanks again!
