Unicorn - Lost/Unreadable Discs + Newer Titles
Posted: Mon Mar 15, 2021 7:52 pm
Hi Folks,
Great to see many of you from the old BZ over here. I hope that all of you are remaining safe during this pandemic. Thanks to Billy for getting this up and running!
As I mentioned in one of my last postings (re missing YD's), I've been collecting since the early '90's, starting with cassette and then to purchasing silver cd's to cd-r trading and ultimately torrents and saving to hard disk. I actually had one of the first cd-r burners back in the mid 90's when they were close to $1k for a 2x drive!
Long story short, I was one of the folks that enjoyed printing out nice colorful labels and carefully affixing them to my collection. This was before it was considered a big "no no", as no one knew the damage that these labels could cause.
I literally have thousands of discs that have been rendered useless. So, needless to say, I'm somewhat heartbroken at the lost music. It was so much fun collection all of the different labels, along with their nuances over the years.
Here where I'm hoping that the kind folks here can help. I've been going label by label with three different drives trying to salvage whatever I can. I'm up to Voxx and Unicorn now. They were a personal favorite back in the early 2000's - not really sure why, but I enjoyed their discs immensely. Perhaps because I used to trade with one of the guys that was allegedly a source for some of their material.
I was able to salvage a handful of titles and download some others.
Here's what I have been unable to salvage so far:
Update: STILL NEED:
UC-069 Beatles - Yellow Submarine DVD Remixes
UC-071 Lennon - In The Middle Of A Cloud
UC-073-074 McCartney - Live At Wembley Arena
UC-079/80 Lennon – D.J. Winston O’Boogie - WNEW-FM
UC-081 Lennon - Apple 2x1 Sided Rough Acetate
UC-089 McCartney - Live At The Cavern Club - SFX Radio Network
UC-121/122 Lennon - Imagine Les Archives
UC-123/124 Beatles - Blackpool Nigh Out ’64 Upgraded
UC-S025-S034 Get Back Camera B Rolls Vol. 2
FILLED:
UC-072 Beatles - Tussen De Bollen (Thanks Mojo !)
UC-077/78 Beatles - At The BBC - Parts 1 & 2 (Thanks Track06 !)
UC-083 Lennon - Acetates & Alternate Mixes (Thanks Phil_Lip and General Pepper !)
UC-090 Harrison - The Concert For Bangladesh - The Apple Acetate (Thanks 20YearsAgo !)
UC-PRO-01-GB Getting Best - The Best Of Unicorn Records (Thanks 20YearsAgo !)
Voxx 0001 McCartney & Wings - Learning To Fly (Thanks Phil_Lip !)
Voxx 0004 Harrison & Starr - Lost And Found (Thanks Phil_Lip !)
Voxx 0007 McCartney - The Lost McCartney II Album (Thanks Phil_Lip !)
Voxx 0012 McCartney - The Nashville Sessions (Thanks Mojo !)
Voxx 0013 Lennon - Walls And Bridges Revisited (Thanks Phil_Lip !)
Voxx 0014 McCartney - Belgium 1972 (Thanks 20YearsAgo !)
Voxx 0016 McCartney - The True Saturday Night Live Rehearsals (Thanks 20YearsAgo !)
I hate to be one of those people asking for so much. Please also let me know if this is out of line asking here. I realize it's a decent-sized list. Many of you have been so generous that the last thing I want do is impose on any of you.
if this is considered acceptable I hope to rebuild my collection label by label, along with the help of the kind folks here. Again, I hate to be asking for so much.
I don't have a complete "list" of my collection, but please feel free to post or PM something that you might need and I will do whatever I can to help.
Thanks to all.
-all the best!
