added to uk-flagged "ace vanguard masters" as this was the closest pre-existing label choice to what's on the cd & package inserts. a uk-flagged? eu-flagged? world-excluding-usa(-&-canadada?)-flagged vanguard label would probably be better for the whole series.
n.b. disc mfd in eu, so a cd of the album's quite likely to've been issued in merkia previously, unless the digital mastering was done by, or commissioned by, ace records. there isn't much data upon the ace vanguard masters's package inserts as relates specifically to the digitally mastered editions and they also do not give the original vanguard recording society's lp cat#s in full, only quoting the numerical parts of the stereo lps' cat#s. "fire & fleet & candlelight", for example, will have seen a mono lp release as VRS-9250 in 6/67 unless the vrs'd abandoned releasing mono counterparts to albums they could release in stereo by then.
The title of the CD is meant to be "Fire & Fleet & Candlight" with no mysterious quotation marks around the ands according to Ace catalogue. I'll send a correction. A great album though.
Added release date from Ace website, which shows the label as just Vanguard. Ace is just the distributor here, I think, and Vanguard Masters would qualify as a series.
