COMMENTS Rock And Roll Music, Music For Pleasure, Vol.1 MFP 50506 and Vol.2 MFP 50507.

EMI Records  decided to issue the remixed recordings. They split the two albums, put them into new sleeves after receiving numerous complaints about the original sleeves (Rock'n' Roll Music (PCSP 719)) and issued them on the Music For Pleasure label as Rock And Roll Music, Volumes 1 and 2. These two albums are worth buying if only to compare the original recordings with the remixes.

Unlaminated gGarrod & Lofthouse Ltdh sleeves. White paper EMI custom inner sleeves.

Red-black labels with the bottom text gCOPYRIGHT RECORD ALL RIGHTS OF THE MANUFACTURER AND OF THE OWNER OF THE RECORDED WORK RESERVED UNAUTHORISED PUBLIC PERFORMANCE BROADCASTING AND COPY OF THE RECORD PROHIBITEDh. Matrix for these albums were made with the Capitol Records laqueurs.
