annaloog ● 29th Aug 2024		Book Gene Wolfe - The Sword Of The Lictor	The cover graphic features a detail from the Timescape hardcover edition's painting, attributed to Don Maitz.
annaloog ● 29th Aug 2024		Book Gene Wolfe - The Claw Of The Conciliator	The cover graphic features a detail from the Timescape hardcover edition's painting, attributed to Don Maitz.
annaloog ● 16th Aug 2024		Book Leslie Charteris - The Saint Intervenes	This is Avon 71 (cat. no. added, and this title added to my Avon list) — the cat. no. should be printed on the book's spine * ... and it is listed in the catalog listing in my copies of Avon 107 and Avon 109. * Avon 1 - 40 are not numbered, but the cat. no. may be found in the Avon catalog listing printed on the inside back cover of these early editions.
annaloog ● 10th Aug 2024		Vinyl Album Jean Ritchie - Songs From Kentucky	Quote: Ah! I thought that Argo had always been part of Decca, so thanks for putting me straight.... Yes, thanks, so did I.
annaloog ● 5th Aug 2024		Book Susannah Leigh - Journey To The Lost Temple	JMO, I seriously doubt that an illustrator is the same as an author (a graphic novel may be an exception). At any rate, John Blackman's name does not appear on the cover.
annaloog ● 4th Aug 2024		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Oklahoma! Motion Picture Sound Track	I have changed the flag to UK. It looks like this entry and Capitol LCT 6100 should be combined. As W.B.lbl mentioned, the original (US) release is Capitol SAO 595 * ... somewhere I have two copies, which I found at the same thrift shop some 3 years apart. * Not to be confused with 'SWAO 595', the later stereo reissue.
annaloog ● 1st Aug 2024		Vinyl Album Julie Andrews, Henry Mancini - Music From The Film Score	Indeed, the "Z" in the "ZPRS" matrix no. prefix indicates 1970. mod edit: year changed to 1970
annaloog ● 1st Aug 2024		Vinyl Album Jean Ritchie - Songs From Kentucky	The main and alternate labels should be swapped: this is a US Westminster release (WN 18021) of a UK Argo recording (RG 3 ?) ... oddly (I'd think) licensed to Westminster rather than released on UK Decca's US London label. The RCA Custom matrix prefix dates this to 1955.
annaloog ● 24th Jul 2024		Book James White - The Secret Visitors	Thanks, that confirms my conclusion. I have combined the two entries.
annaloog ● 21st Jul 2024		Book James White - The Secret Visitors	? Same edition as Ace G-675?
annaloog ● 19th Jul 2024		Vinyl Album Canned Heat - Canned Heat	Perhaps intentional, since Sterno (which was advertised as "canned heat") is a trademarked name.
annaloog ● 11th Jul 2024		Book Jack Vance - The Five Gold Bands	The plot synopsis on the dust jacket flap is suspiciously reminiscent of that on the back cover of the DAW edition.
annaloog ● 7th Jul 2024		Book James Blish - Star Trek 11	Additional images uploaded.
annaloog ● 2nd Jul 2024		Book J. E. Johnson - Wing Leader	Depending on the type of sticker adhesive, try soaking it (the sticker, not the book) in (just enough) lighter fluid and wait a minute or two before attempting to peel.
annaloog ● 1st Jul 2024		Vinyl Album Josh White - A Josh White Program / Ballads	The cover title was changed (to "Ballads") for US release; the labels retain the UK title (with spelling adapted for USA). Some of the tracks were reissued on 12" London LL-1341.
annaloog ● 30th Jun 2024		Vinyl Album Sergio Centi - Canzoni Romane Seconda Raccolta	Jul or Aug 1956 release, judging from the date stamped in the runout area.
annaloog ● 29th Jun 2024		Book D. H. Lawrence - The Virgin And The Gipsy	Quote: ... Maybe the request should be reversed then and .... Already done, 3 editions now linked.
annaloog ● 28th Jun 2024		Book Lord Dunsany - The King Of Elfland's Daughter	There is, perhaps, some room for confusion. Acc. to the Guide (for) Adding Books, Quote: Do please add books using a single canonical version of an author's name, even if there is a variation of the name on the book cover. The name could be that which the author is best known, or how the author is referred to on Wikipedia .... I don't suggest changing, say, all 170 entries (so far) of Jack Vance titles to John Holbrook Vance — the author is "best known" as we now have it ... similarly with Lord Dunsany.
annaloog ● 28th Jun 2024		Book D. H. Lawrence - The Virgin And The Gipsy	"Gipsy" is a variant spelling. This Wikipedia page shows a photo of (what is claims as) the first UK edition.
annaloog ● 28th Jun 2024		Book Denis Gifford - The Great Cartoon Stars: A Who's Who!	Oddly (perhaps), of all the animated cartoon characters that ever existed, from the early (silent) days of Gertie the Dinosaur and Krazy Kat & Ignatz through recent years, those selected for the dust jacket came from Fleischer Studios.
annaloog ● 28th Jun 2024		Vinyl Album After All - After All	She was a recording artist as well.
annaloog ● 27th Jun 2024		12" Single Mike Oldfield - Mike Oldfield Live	The rimtext on my copy's labels is laid out differently (in two lines) than on the earlier label set. Also, on both Side One labels, "Tubular" is misspelled as "Tabular".
annaloog ● 26th Jun 2024		Book Agatha Christie - The ABC Murders	Responding to a correction request, Wikipedia has the title as "The A. B. C. Murders". agathachristie.com, whose connection to the late author (or her estate) is doubtful, has the title as "The ABC Murders", omitting the stops. Which to choose? Does it matter? . . . Perhaps an entry for the original edition might resolve the matter. <edit> FWIW, this 1936 Dodd, Mead edition as listed on ebay shows the title with stops.
annaloog ● 26th Jun 2024		12" Single Dexys Midnight Runners - Come On Eileen	Added a set of label images for a PRC-Compton (26) pressing . . . sides designated as 1 / 2 rather than A / B as with the previous set.
annaloog ● 24th Jun 2024		12" Single Donna Summer - Hot Stuff	Label scans added ... my (used) copy, a Columbia-Pitman pressing judging from the '56' factory code, came in a plain, white, die-cut cover.
annaloog ● 24th Jun 2024		Vinyl Album Pink Floyd - Delicate Sound Of Thunder	Side 3 = 00545 (red label) or A60-00545 (white label) Side 4 = 00546 (red label) or A60-00546 (white label) The 'A60 00543 007' no. is absent from the white labels. Both the red and white labels are from the Leningrad factory (Ленинградский Завод). So much for reading the label info., hopefully it helps.
annaloog ● 23rd Jun 2024		Vinyl Album Carly Simon - No Secrets	Quote: The one with the EKS matrices is the earlier .... FWIW, the 'EKS 75049' no. is a reference to the US release no., not a matrix no.
annaloog ● 22nd Jun 2024		Classical Item Zimbler Sinfonietta - Konzertante Sinfonie Es-dur KV 364 Für Violine, Viola Und Orchester	The cover date here [image # 1418382] is 12/58; on my copy is a later date, 8/59.
annaloog ● 20th Jun 2024		12" Single Keith Jarrett - God Bless The Child (Edit)	The cat. no. is in the Warner Bros. 'PRO-A' series.
annaloog ● 16th Jun 2024		Book Jennifer Adams - Dracula	At $9.99, that's (roughly ) $1 per number . . . not much value for money, esp. when you can teach your offspring for 'free'. John Lennon might have said, "rugby".
