DO YOU REMEMBER #THEFIRSTTIME?

#Hammer '#Dracula' LP! 😵 Released back in 1974, I know many of you, Hammer, Cushing, Lee, fans, have copies of this LP, on CD and tape too. It's a big favourite and was our first experience of having Hammer films, Dracula, on tap! Long before we had the luxury of video then dvd / #blu rays. I remember, I got #goosebumps, on my first hearing! 

 

RELEASED first with an impressive gatefold cover, in 1974 to the UK, as a #Quadrophonic recording by EMI! (Above) The US and Canada release also in 1974, was a stereo recording, with a single sleeve, same Dracula AD 1972 cover pic, but the releases didn't have the beautiful glossy photograph of #ChristopherLee as Dracula, from #HammerFilms 'The Satanic Rites of Dracula, tearing his way out of that Hawthorn bush.. just a red cover with bat sketch and listing of album contents...

 

OVER AT THE FACEBOOK PCASUK FAN PAGE, we are asking, if you remember when you FIRST heard yours? Where did you purchase it from and do still have it?

 

YEARS LATER, I bought the #PeterCushing 'Legend of the Seven Golden #Vampires' LP, this was of course decades pre internet and finding this was like finding 'rocking horse droppings!' ... which fab too! There was a planned Cushing / #Frankenstein LP too, that sadly, if recorded was never released.... Happy Days! - Marcus
