I'm not bidding as the record looks in poor shape.
However, I know the INTS pressing of this title was mastered by BBJ, but I guess its possible that this later SF pressing was also newly mastered?
Thanks for the info. In better condition it's probably worth having then...ClausH wrote: November 16th, 2025, 4:43 pmCut by Jack Adams according to the Discogs review.rockinrebel wrote: November 16th, 2025, 4:00 pm Just saw this on ebay:

Yes, that's correct it was first issued in the UK the year before in 1982. I think the "Memories of Christmas" LP which had the same cover design but somewhat different tracklisting was the US version of this Yuletide project. The US version also had less tracks on it.martin018 wrote: November 16th, 2025, 2:34 pm i thought this was released in the U K in 1982. I remember buying this and the USA version at about the same time.
Never saw this version before. Thanks for sharing. Could you photograph the label as well?AndrewJ wrote: November 16th, 2025, 1:45 pm I got hold of a copy of 'It Won't Seem Like Christmas Without You' this weekend.

This release is from 1983. The sleeve design is identical to 'Memories of Christmas' released the year before but the track listing is completely different. Still, it has a nice sound consistent with BBJ's work on other releases.
From memory, this was a new release which was sold at mid price, so RCA UK issued it on the blue label but used the INTS prefix.JohnnyByeBye wrote: November 17th, 2025, 9:44 am Help me oit someone:Does this mean that the INTS release we have in our BBJ list actually has an UK sleeve and German PL vinyl,and there doesn't exist a copy with pressed INTS vinyl pressed in UK?
From Discogs it seems that it is the 1982 version that has the BBJ signature and was pressed in the UK and the 1983 version (this version) was pressed in Germany (presumably from the same stamper as BBJ is listed on the cover)JohnnyByeBye wrote: November 17th, 2025, 9:44 am Help me oit someone:Does this mean that the INTS release we have in our BBJ list actually has an UK sleeve and German PL vinyl,and there doesn't exist a copy with pressed INTS vinyl pressed in UK?
Having now gone through the photos in Discogs,i'm inclined to think it is like you wrote there. Will update the list accordingly.AndrewJ wrote: November 17th, 2025, 11:37 am From Discogs it seems that it is the 1982 version that has the BBJ signature and was pressed in the UK and the 1983 version (this version) was pressed in Germany (presumably from the same stamper as BBJ is listed on the cover)
