UK RCA Singles
On these pages (click the links above) you will find the UK & Irish RCA singles.
There are many pressings of most of these singles, this was because most of these records were kept on catalogue from the time they were released until the ‘Lifetimes’ re-releases in 1983. A lot of the songs, or the version of the songs were only available on these singles for many years, so they stayed constant sellers.
In November 1973 RCA announced they had sold 1,024,068 David Bowie singles in the UK alone, great figures in less than two years.
I know there are other label variations out there! The good thing about a website is it’s updatable, so please email me if you have any. I am adding all the time!
I show some Test Pressings on a few of these records, there are test pressings of most UK RCA records, the majority came with the standard RCA Test Pressing label;
