    WOW! Camden Market and Covent Garden record stores. Just wow. Scored a bunch of amazing stuff. More to come...
    Find me a British version of Rubber Soul. I'll pay you.
    Going back tomorrow before heading to the airport. They had a Dutch Rubber Soul at one of the places for around 80 pounds (~120 bucks), but I think they might have had a UK one for about 15 pounds. I balked on grabbing the Abbey Road UK release that was 13 pounds. I'll keep ya in mind tomorrow and we'll catch up when I make it back to the old country.
    Nice and thanks! The American and British versions of Abbey Road are the same. They went the same, starting with Sgt. Pepper.

    Is 15 pounds like $30 here?

    The rate is like 1.5 and change, so 15 pounds is about $22.50.

    Good to know about the Beatles vinyl timeline.

    Oh yeah, so I had a nice discussion with the bloke working at one of the shops, comparing British punk with American punk. I also asked him how much vinyl has made a comeback in the UK (a la the US). His reply, "Vinyl has never gone away here. We know and appreciate the difference and always have."

    Apparently she's holed up in her castle in the suburbs, waiting Wills return from action. Her face is everywhere around here though. They plastered both of their faces on every piece of souvenir merchandise imaginable.

    You're welcome and glad to know the British know what's the right format.

    Sorry Newch, Rubber Soul was like 80 pounds. Not worth it.

    Thanks for searching, though. One day, I will own it...just not at that expensive price.
