(2 days in a row)
|
Alenko 24th Mar 2017 | | CD AlbumJeff Beck - Truth | Well, what is an identical album?
Same cover? Label? Catalog number? Track listing? All of the above?
We add different issues of the same album because they are not identical. Whatever the difference might be. And then we link them together so all of the different issues of the same album can be easily seen at the same page.
The site is getting bigger and it's getting harder and harder to locate all the issues of the same album, especially because many users after adding CD don't link it with already added issues of the same album. Linking releases is very helpful and convenient.

Alenko 23rd Mar 2017 | | CD AlbumHüsker Dü - Warehouse: Songs And Stories | #1 on "CD Albums - Top 50 Viewed" for yesterday
|
Alenko 23rd Mar 2017 | | CD AlbumThe Kinks - Something Else By The Kinks Deluxe Edition | Universal is not primary label here. As a matter of fact Universal should not be mentioned at all.
I can't see their logo. label is always represented with the logo.
Sanctuary is correct label here.
|
Alenko 22nd Mar 2017 | | CD AlbumJeff Beck - Truth | Reissue is reissue of an original album no matter how many bonus tracks they put on or if they remaster the same original master tapes over and over.
It's not the point to link identical issues. The point is to link all issues of the same album.
|
Alenko 22nd Mar 2017 | | CD AlbumJeff Beck - Truth | It's the same album.
Different track number or different remastering doesn't mean the issues should not be connected.
Both issues (this CD and 2005 remaster with bonus tracks) are reissues of the same, 1968 release and as such should be linked

This release includes all of their archival material except the A-side of their only original single release, (Theme From "Valley of the Dolls") which was omitted for legal reasons.
|

[Moderator: Done]
|
Alenko 16th Feb 2017 | | CD AlbumThe Guess Who - Canned Wheat | Image should be removed and D number should not be added to this issue since it's not the part of it.
Club issue should have it's own entry
|
Alenko 13th Feb 2017 | | CD AlbumThe Guess Who - Share The Land | [expanded] is not part of the title

Catalog number and barcode are the same.
|
Alenko 15th Jan 2017 | | CD AlbumLaurie Anderson - Mister Heartbreak | Just out of curiosity, why some of your images have small black border around (like the cover image here) that is not a part of the cover art?
|
Alenko 12th Jan 2017 | | CD AlbumDavid Bowie - Pin-Ups | Well, first of all, we should not make a special rule what label is and what label is not.
Like I said in my previous comment, label is represented with a logo. If there is no logo, it's not a label.
I can see why some users might be confused and reading fine print instead of looking for the label logo.
|
Alenko 12th Jan 2017 | | CD AlbumDavid Bowie - Pin-Ups | Bigger labels are usually distributors. Choosing correct label sometimes has nothing to do who actually released the album. Label is like the badge, symbol used on the release, hence label logo has to be present.
Whatever is written in the fine print has nothing to do with the label. For example, Virgin Records America doesn't really exist as a label on its own. Although it is written on the release Virgin Recirds America, label logo on those releases belongs to mainline Virgin. Virgin Recirds America is just an American office of Virgin Records, not a label on its own.
Rhino for example has many releases that have Rhino written in the fine print and use Rhino catalog numbers. However, if there is no Rhino logo, Rhino is not the label. Just a manufacturer/distributer.
|
Alenko 12th Jan 2017 | | CD AlbumDavid Bowie - Pin-Ups | This is really great discussion and a lot of interesting information. However, who owns who has nothing to do with determining the label. Label should be chosen based on the label logo. In this case correct label is Parlophone.
Also, if there is more than one label logo, correct primary label is the smaller (smallest) one.
|
Alenko 3rd Jan 2017 | | CD AlbumLoudon Wainwright III - Album III | Thanks Phil. That's the date I had too. However decided to use month only.
|
Alenko 2nd Jan 2017 | | CD AlbumLoudon Wainwright III - Album III | Well, all the sources point to 1990. This might be later pressing with the new Columbia logo.
|
Alenko 1st Jan 2017 | | CD AlbumM People - Elegant Slumming | Added full set of scans to this entry, including bigger front cover image
|
Alenko 14th Dec 2016 | | CD AlbumNana Mouskouri - La Dame De Cœur | Added full set of scans from US issue of this album with same label/catalog number/barcode.
Maybe this should be made into international release?
