The_Vinyl_Junkie SUBS 2nd Sep 2016 | | CD AlbumStevie Nicks - Rock A Little | In the very early days of CD's in Australia, the major companies had 90% of their CD's manufactured in Europe for local distribution. Small time independent retailers purchased all their stocks directly from the major companies. When central distribution came about along with minimum value orders the rules were relaxed by the majors allowing the independent retailers to get stocks from the one-stop wholesaler. Of the Independent retailers in Western Australia only a couple did direct importing (including myself) for product not readily available from the major companies. This title was available from EMI with the disc as shown in image # 1142739.

The_Vinyl_Junkie SUBS 1st Sep 2016 | | CD AlbumKazuyuki K. Null And James Plotkin - Aurora | ReviewOn first listening it was like an extended intro with the disc ending while you are still waiting to get into it. After subsequent listens it still did not do anything exciting to get you wanting more. Can understand why a chain retailer ended up with it on special for $2.

The_Vinyl_Junkie SUBS 25th Jun 2016 | | Vinyl AlbumWheeler Walker Jr - Redneck Shit | Transferred from notes.
As submitted by VinylTeeka:
"Yes, I know that Wheeler’s debut album is already being called “the filthiest country album in history”. But to merely label it as that would be a crime. It’s one of the finest country albums ever put to wax (or files, or whatever). Eleven songs of the most ass-kicking, moving and heartfelt real country you’ll ever hear.
Produced by the great Dave Cobb (who’s produced Jason Isbell, Chris Stapleton, Jamey Johnson & Wheeler’s old pal Sturgill Simpson) and backed up by a crack band of Nashville’s finest players, this is what country music is supposed to be."

The_Vinyl_Junkie SUBS 21st Jun 2016 | | CD AlbumVarious Artists - Monster Sounds And "Boppin" Tracks Vol. 1 | The artwork on the front is the same as the Power Records 342 cover for "Frankie Stein And His Ghouls". Also the back artwork is from his first LP with Power.
|
The_Vinyl_Junkie SUBS 16th Jun 2016 | | CD AlbumWillie Logan - The Legend Lives | Complete with the artwork/design to catch the unsuspecting they were getting Marc Bolan.
Don't worry I purchased it just to see how good/bad Willie was.

The_Vinyl_Junkie SUBS 3rd Jun 2016 | | CD AlbumSonny Landreth - Outward Bound | Added booklet pages. I am pretty sure BMG distributed this in Australia as an import release.
Track 2 is great for the line dance "What's Your Name" without restarts.
|
The_Vinyl_Junkie SUBS 13th May 2016 | | CD AlbumBurning Spear - Reggae Greats | Perth was similar to Adelaide, we did not have any HMV stores. In the Perth CBD Sanity had their specialty store which had a tremendous range of imports for material that was not released in Australia. This also acted as their own distribution center of imports to the suburban shopping center stores for customer orders. The Perth Sanity store only lasted a short time.
|
The_Vinyl_Junkie SUBS 15th Mar 2016 | | CD AlbumSusumu Yokota - Mother | Good one Lee, I've still got a long way to go. As for "Z" I have five artists, six CDs.
Jasper your Zombies, are they the UK 60's group or the locals from the 90's led by Steve Tallis?
|
The_Vinyl_Junkie SUBS 10th Mar 2016 | | CD AlbumPrem Joshua - Dance Of Shakti | The back inlay sheet is poorly printed, the colours were out of alignment.
The cat # differs between the disc and the inlay so I have entered both.
|
The_Vinyl_Junkie SUBS 10th Mar 2016 | | CD AlbumJack Johnson - On And On | The booklet has printed the lyrics out of sequence to the disc. The lyrics on page 9 need to be swapped with page 12.
|
The_Vinyl_Junkie SUBS 10th Mar 2016 | | CD AlbumJo And Kong - Particular, Special | A lady from Thailand did this translation for me.
|
The_Vinyl_Junkie SUBS 7th Mar 2016 | | CD AlbumVarious Artists - The Ultimate Sun Rockabilly Collection | The first three digits of the barcode are the Netherlands. MRA distributed along the same lines as Shock, some local manufacture and some import only.
|
The_Vinyl_Junkie SUBS 3rd Mar 2016 | | CD Album[no artist listed] - Essential Karaoke Favourites | I suspect that the music is by a Studio Band assembled by Janda Music.
|
The_Vinyl_Junkie SUBS 2nd Mar 2016 | | CD AlbumJade Warrior - Elements: The Island Anthology | The booklet for this set has been misplaced.
|
The_Vinyl_Junkie SUBS 25th Feb 2016 | | CD AlbumIron Butterfly - In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida | The perimeter text on the disc does not scan and shows as a thick black ring. The complete text is:
All rights of the manufacturer and the owner of the recorded work reserved. Unauthorised public performance, broadcasting, leasing and copying of this disc prohibited. Manufactured and distributed by Warner Music Australia Pty. Limited. A Time Warner Company.

The_Vinyl_Junkie SUBS 8th Feb 2016 | | BookMartin C. Strong - The Great Rock Discography | What is the diffference between this entry and this entry?
|
The_Vinyl_Junkie SUBS 26th Jan 2016 | | CD AlbumIggy Pop - Brick By Brick | This is the only "Disc World" that doesn't put entries into individual countries. As the entries grow the display for an "Artist" becomes messy and awkward to find a particular "Title" for a particular "Country".
The only way for it to stay reasonable with this form of display is to go along with PhilMH's idea of giving away with "Country" altogether.
With that said it now leaves a lot of discography options unavailable: such as, release dates for individual countries of a particular Title, the discography of an Artist in a particular country, and so on.
I have been dwelling on this for some time and for every thought I have had that may work kept running into a brick wall of problems.
If nothing else this may keep Iggy Pop on the top 50.
|
The_Vinyl_Junkie SUBS 21st Jan 2016 | | CD AlbumRolling Stones - Volumen 1 Coca Cola Presenta | I have a vague suspicion from ages ago that if playtime is greater than 20 minutes of different song titles then it is classed as Album.
|
The_Vinyl_Junkie SUBS 18th Jan 2016 | | CD Albumk.d. lang - Shadowland | This is Australian made and should be Australia for Country.
Both inlay and disc quote "Manufactured and Distributed by Warner Music Australasia".
|
The_Vinyl_Junkie SUBS 19th Dec 2015 | | CD AlbumCaptain Beefheart And His Magic Band - The Legendary A&M Sessions | I agree with Lee Wrecker. I can't see that it would cause any dramas to have it listed in both CD Singles and CD Albums. Perhaps a cross reference in the "Note" with something like "Also listed in CD xxxxxxx"
I should probably list LOUD 2 in both.
|
The_Vinyl_Junkie SUBS 16th Dec 2015 | | CD AlbumHan Bao Yi - Selected Sounds | ReviewThe most played disc in my collection. An album of Mandarin pop, with track 7 "Looking At The Moon" outstanding. The whole album gets you to want to sing-a-long. It still rates number one of my top ten, ahead of Social Distortion's "Somewhere Between Heaven And Hell" holding the number two spot.
