| | I'm sure in a couple of cases I've bought mixed lots which include a full sequence from a set/album but made up with discs from two separate releases.
I guess thinks like the following may have happened:
(1) individual discs were bought by customers as replacements for broken discs
(2) retailers may have found the only way to shift an incomplete album/set was to buy up the freshly-numbered reissue to add into the sequence.
(3) Buyers may have done the same, by dint of ordering "fill-ins" to match up with incomplete disc sets/albums they or a retailer held. . |

| | Two things need further comment. I'm trying to put a list of the HMV numbered 78rpm 'Albums' (around 470) together. But many 'Sets' were also issued. Most Albums and Sets were issued in straight couplings (as here) and auto-couplings. Many of the earlier auto-couplings were issued twice, with different catalogue numbers for each issue. Never simple is it ?? |

| | I'm sure it's somewhere amongst the piles of 78's in my garage if its survived. |

| | Thankfully (for now) we have only 50 entries for Symphony Orchestra , I was thinking of how the record information shows up in Discograpies - of artists or lables
https://www.45worlds.com/78rpm/artist/symphony-orchestra
See discography for SOME inconsistencies of entry
I note for this set D 1191 is not on 78world as yet. |

| | This disc, from the mid-twenties, pre-dates the later convention of putting side numbers on the disc labels - normally 1-2, 3-4, 5-6 etc. Things got a little more complicated when autochangers came into being, and album sets were then also issued sequenced for stacked play - e.g. 1-6, 2-5, 3-4.etc
Whyperion - I think if the Work title e.g. "Symphony no.4 (etc)" is entered in the main disc title field, the descriptions of the individual sides then make more sense. |

| | I think for 78world the "symphony orchestra" artist credit is better as Symphony Orchestra Conducted by Albert Coates
Likewise although the composer gets the composer credit and the Labels dont make the record title the full name, we all know these really as Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 6 In B Minor (Pathétique) - Op. 74
So should here the composer be included in the title |

| | I have seen sets with an unrelated side on the last one rather than a blank. I think it was possible to buy individual discs as making up a set took time at the factory, and one could almost order a disc a week from ones retailer as one got paid. (though waiting for the next intermezzo a whole seven days could be frustrating. Actually I wonder if sets would be shipped without sleeves for the retailer to make up into their card sleeves ? |

| | Good question if someone has the original Album these sets came in that should be loaded up and the individual discs linked to it as several members only have part of a set.
In fact I've often come across the albums for these sets but the classical discs have been dumped and replaced with unrelated 78's.
As for Classical World the emphasis is on the music and artists rather then the 78/LP/CD etc.
So it seems part sets don't make sense there IMHO.
Yes I know what you mean regarding the end of one set on one side and an unrelated work on the other I presume they were only sold as individual discs rather then an album. |

| | Here is a question. These discs often turn up on their own, sometimes as full albums and sometimes full or part sets. Should the Full Book Set be entered on its own on 78 world as well as the individual discs, or should the Book Set only go on Classical World (and has Classical World ruled that individual discs of a work wont appear there ( though what about Disc 10 which often has the Conclusion of Work 1 and a quick segment or something of a shorter Work 2 on its flip? |
