It makes you wonder how genuine these 24k gold discs are, or is it just a dye?

The Music Master Labels Catalogue 10th Edition has it dated for 1988, but looking at the cars on the front sleeve it looks to be 70's. Ford Escorts and Ford Capris, very 70's

@gregs45s. It looks like your disc is genuinely "Gold Coloured". I was searching around the web looking for info on PDO disc bronzing and came across THIS PAGE and it seems that at one stage PDO added a dye to the lacquer that gave them the gold tint

Various Artists - 60 Number Ones Of The Sixties
There's another disc on the database HERE called 40 Number Ones Of The Sixties which has the same Cat# & Barcode as this disc, 60 Number Ones Of The Sixties. I can't find anywhere that lists 40 Number Ones Of The Sixties and was wondering was the other disc some kind of mock-up. The quality of the images would certainly point to that and it is totally void of any other evidence to check up on. Disc 1 is Disc 3 on mine and Disc 2 is the same as mine. I've checked the Music Master Catalogues, EBay, Amazon & Discogs and can only find entries for 60 Number Ones Of The Sixties. Anybody?

Just seems very odd that after 50 years in the business they change all the names. Tony Iommi becomes Frank Iommi, Ozzie Osbourne becomes John Osbourne, Bill Ward becomes William Ward and Geezer Butler becomes Terence Butler. Weird!

Four Day Hombre - 1000 Bulbs
The disc image included here is not the disc supposed to be in the Jewel Case. It seems to be some sort of CD-r promo or gift for somebody but it isn't an actual official album / single / EP. Tracks from it can be found on some of their releases but I couldn't find an Official release of the 1st track "Pretend Your Blind". I include it here because it was in the case and possibly an unreleased track on it?

Shopgirls: The True Story Of Life Behind The Counter (2014)
Here Come the Girls

Episode 1 of 3

Today, it is taken for granted that many shop assistants are women, but 150 years ago, being served by a shopgirl was a strange new phenomenon, and the story of how an army of women swept on to shop floors is a fascinating one.

Dr Pamela Cox presents this three-part series following the journey of the shopgirl from an almost invisible figure in stark Victorian stores, to being the beating heart of modern shops. With retail the biggest private sector employer in the UK today, this series charts how shopgirls have been central to Britain's retail revolution and at the cutting edge of social change.

Pamela begins in the mid-19th century, when shops up and down the country were owned and staffed by men, and shop work was a closed world for most women. A new, emerging middle class had money to spend, but the idea of shopping as a pleasurable experience was still a world away.
As jobs opened in factories, shops no longer had the same ready supply of young male apprentices, and groups actively sought to promote women's employment and shrug off the notion that shop work was somehow 'unladylike'.

The Victorians became consummate shoppers and the experience of shopping became more attuned to the demands of female customers who preferred being served by women. By the late 19th century, the doors to shops across the country were flung open and thousands of women poured in looking for work. Pamela lifts the lid on the working conditions and realities of life for shopgirls, many of whom 'lived in' above the shops and new department stores.

By the turn of the century, nearly a quarter of a million women were employed in shop work. They had forged new kinds of work for women and even helped transform the experience of shopping itself. The shopgirl was here to stay.

Shopgirls: The True Story Of Life Behind The Counter (2014)
Revolution on the Floor

Episode 2 of 3

In the second episode of this series about the history of Britain's shopgirls, Dr Pamela Cox reveals how the lives of shopgirls and the stores they worked in were revolutionised in the early 20th century.

Venturing behind the scenes of some of our most iconic department stores and high street chains, Pamela reveals how feisty shopgirls rebelled against their poor working conditions and started to demand more from their jobs. No longer content to just be servants on the shop floor, they were becoming a respected workforce - professional young women at the heart of the nation's blossoming love affair with shopping.

Pamela learns about shopgirl Margaret Bondfield who, in the late 1890s, went undercover in shops to reveal the harshness of life behind the counter before rising to become Britain's first woman cabinet minister.

Larger-than-life proprietor Harry Gordon Selfridge set out to train his shop assistants to be modern businesswomen, while the First World War gave women the opportunity to step into shopwork like never before, including at Harrods.

In the turmoil of post-war, John Lewis shopworkers went on strike, while the founder's son, Spedon Lewis, honed his plans for a revolutionary idea in which staff would become partners in the business. By the 1930s, the boom in chain stores gave rise to a new type of shopgirl with a new shopping concept: to hang back and let the customer 'browse'.

Shopgirls: The True Story Of Life Behind The Counter (2014)
The New Cool

Episode 3 of 3

Dr Pamela Cox looks at how shopgirls threw off their staid reputation to become hip in the second half of the 20th century.

Pamela begins by discovering heroic stories of shopgirls during the London Blitz, with shopworkers rescuing evacuees and serving customers from bomb-damaged premises. She also explores how the Second World War created flexible working opportunities on the shop floor and gave rise to a new concept, the working mum.

The postwar baby boom created a massive demographic shift, producing record numbers of teenagers with a keen eye for music, film and fashion. By the 1960s, teenagers emulated the beautiful shopgirls working in trendy boutiques like Mary Quant's Bazaar in London's Kings Road. Being a shopgirl was more than just a job - they were status symbols who had become the embodiment of the brand. Shopgirls were crucial to the success of stores like Biba, where their jobs were more about modelling the clothes and hanging out rather than giving customers the hard sell.

Pamela looks at the 1970s, when the unstoppable growth of chain stores and the introduction of shopping malls signalled the death of many independent shops, and explores the impact that growing up above a shop had on the country's most famous grocer's daughter, Margaret Thatcher.

Pamela visits the supermarket where she worked on the checkouts in the 1980s and, glimpsing into the future, she considers how our shops and shopworkers will adapt to an increasingly online world.

@sheepdip1234, My disc, cover + CD Tray Insert has "Music From And Inspired By The "City Of Angels" Motion Picture " while your disc has "Music From The Motion Picture City Of Angels", does your Front Cover inlay + CD Tray Insert match with the disc?
