(Comment by mickey rat on the now-deleted entry on 45cat on 13 April 2018):

"Gilt-Edge was a subsidiary of 4-Star Sales (BMI) and this'd be a radio station only release to promote some of their songs. Must admit I've never seen a ten inch 45 with large centre hole. I once had a 4-Star white label promo-only '50s LP in a plain card sleeve with a selection of then-current 4-Star Sales songs."

Jack Lancaster And Robin Lumley - Marscape
One of two concept albums Lancaster and Lumley made for RSO at this time. Peter And The Wolf was the other.

This is one of (at least) two concept LPs Lancaster and Lumley made for RSO at this time. Marscape was the other.

Agreed, but as this entry is under 'Europe', it shouldn't make any difference to where the images go.

Captain Sensible - Captain Sensible's Stop The World
We don't go by country of manufacture, but country (or territory) of release. This disc may have been pressed in NL, but it was for distribution through much of the continent. This was common from the early 80s onwards, which is why we decided to have a 'Europe' category to try to avoid this sort of disagreement.

Sarah Yary (שרה יערי) - Bni Bealonim
I don't think Bni Bealonim is the artist. The phrase doesn't appear on the B-side, for example. I think that it's the title of the first part of Side A, with 'Avigail' being the second part. A medley, perhaps?

As to the actual artist, I'll have to do a bit more work on that...

Update: The singer appears to be Sarah Yari, but I can't find anything online for an Israeli singer of that name at the moment.

Further update: I've found a recording by Sarah Yary on eBay (here - for the moment. So I think we're on sound ground changing the artist's name to that.

Final comment: I think this is sorted now - unless someone knows better...

All entries go live as soon as they're submitted. You may be seeing (or, rather, not seeing) a server caching issue. Certainly nothing sinister going on.

Choir Of H.M. Chapels Royal - Welcome Yule / Infant So Gentle
Perhaps because the A-side contains an 'original' work as well as arrangements of other - presumably 'Trad.' - songs.

A House - Endless Art
B-side has '12 R 6346' scratched out in the run-out. Probably the originally-intended cat# for a release on Parlophone alone? See the 7")

Shouldn't this be listed under 'Rhino'? Or 'Upfront'?

Aldo Nova - Specially Banded Radio Sampler
Inclined to agree, bearing in mind that 'AS-' was a designation for Portrait's 12" promos.

Kraftwerk - Ultra Rare Trax
I don't think it's quite as clear cut as it is with the 'Meccano' one. These are unofficial remixes of KW tracks rather than the originals. I don't have this one, but I have the URT CD of remixes of The Orb: ORB 1

Please use the 'Make Correction' link down there at the bottom of the page. That way, one of us will definitely pick it up; otherwise, we might miss it.

Review
The 23rd(?) album by the Mael brothers finds them rejuvenated and operating with supreme confidence in their material.

The quirkiness is there, of course; but it is allied to a strong understanding of such a variety of styles and genres that there is no sense of novelty for novelty's sake here. From the borderline Drum 'n' Bass silliness of Giddy Giddy, via a cheeky tribute to horizontal jogging to the orchestral pop of the title track, there is an assuredness and cohesion about the whole work. And only Ron & Russell could have the lines, "When you're a French director/You're an auteur as well/What does this mean?/Every scene/Must be obscure as hell" sung by an actual French director (their friend and sometime collaborator Leos Carax).

There are so many echoes of other things here: the near-Beatles musical sensibilities of Scandinavian Design (Norwegian Wood Part II?), echoes of the style of early/mid-90s Chumbawamba in So Tell Me Mrs. Lincoln..., plus other influences which someone more au fait with the modern scene than I am would pick up on.

All this is underpinned by superb arrangements and a very solid band behind them.

This is Sparks' strongest album in nearly two decades, and it may be their most consistently strong outing ever. My album of the year!

The Connecticut Collegians - That Goes On For Days And Days / He Ought To Get A Stripe For That
I can see only one listing for 256 on that list, and it's a different coupling to this entry. He lists this entry under 257 (and there's only one of them as well, as far as I can see), albeit with the tracks listed the other way round (That Goes On... has the lower matrix #).

[I've now switched the track order according to the matrix numbers. Mod.]
