ppint. 22nd Jul 2015		CD Album Art - Supernatural Fairy Tales (2015)	originally released as island lp, ilp967 (note not ilps (and not 9067) december 1967; it was released only in mono, and island then distinguished stereo versions of their lps from the mono by interpolation of a "0" after the "9" and before the last two digits of the mono cat# as well as appending the "s" to the "ilp". (this was a system doomed to fail after the ilp999/ilps9099 couplet - if any further mono/stereo pairs were to occur; luckily, island ceased issuing mono lps before reaching this singularity/event horizon...)
ppint. 21st Jul 2015		CD Album The V.I.P.s - The Complete V.I.P.s (2006)	the v.i.p.s (sometimes the vipps) evolved into the group "art", who recorded an lp, "supernatural fairy tale/s", and continued to evolve - into the band, "spooky tooth".
ppint. 20th Jul 2015		CD Album Deep Purple - Now What?! (2013)	£9.99 = £10 to two significant places - and to most people.
ppint. 19th Jul 2015		CD Album Various Artists - Ars Longa Vita Brevis (2004)	gregs78s: it is? it's also possible they both borrow the classical dictum: truly it is. (it's the latin translation of the first two lines of hippocrates' "aphorisms", with the order reversed from that in the original greek.)
ppint. 19th Jul 2015		CD Album The Shangri-Las - Greatest Hits (1993)	also available on musicassette, cat# qbmc 6, q.v. for expansions of the abbreviated composer credits given.
ppint. 16th Jul 2015		CD Album Jussi Björling, Victoria De Los Angeles, Leonard Warren, Robert Merril, Franke, Cehanovsky, Wright, Renato Cellini And Rca Victor Orchestra And Choir And Chorale - Leoncavallo: Pagliacci / Opera In Two Acts And A Prologue (2003)	track 01, which is the only track in the section, "prologue" (cf. sections "act one", etc.), is entitled" si puó? si puó? (tonio)" (as submitted). (the names in parentheses are those of the characters in the opera taking vocal part(s) on each track plus, in the play, the parts these characters take.)
ppint. 16th Jul 2015		CD Album David Wilson Johnson, Gennadi Rozhdestvensky And Bbc Symphony Orchestra And Singers And Chorus, Rozhdestvensky And Moscow Radio Orchestra - Tchaikovsky: Symphony No.6 'pathetique' • Glinka: Overture (1995)	corrections to artist fields on individual tracks: 01 is conductor & bbc symphony orchestra; 02 is david wilson johnson, conductor & bbc symphony orchestra, bbc singers & bbc symphony chorus; 03-06 are conductor & moscow radio orchestra. (also submitted in a correction)<mod - done!>
ppint. 12th Jul 2015		CD Album Various Artists - Mojo Presents My Generation (2015)	why not the year after, too?
ppint. 12th Jul 2015		CD Album Ray Davies - Other People's Lives (2006)	original item submitted is released cd in jewel case.
ppint. 12th Jul 2015		CD Album Various Artists - Mojo Presents My Generation (2015)	so the release date is that of the month after the month it is officially released. . .
ppint. 9th Jul 2015		CD Album Robbie Williams - Reality Killed The Video Star (2009)	okun69: seems unlikely.
ppint. 6th Jul 2015		CD Album Karel Brazda And (Mitglieder Der/des Members Of) Philharmonia Slavonia - Brandenburgische Konzerte 1-6 • Brandenburg Concertos 1-6	i am not sure the german titles of each individual konzert should be described as "brandenburgisches", which looks plural to this ppint. - but this, too, is "sic" (& "stet!")
ppint. 6th Jul 2015		CD Album Various Artists - The Sixties Decade: 1961	beware of tringness...
ppint. 5th Jul 2015		CD Album Clara Matec, Stephan Nagy, Dragutin Hrdjok And Solisti Di Zagreb - B. Bartok: 15 Ungarische Bauernlieder U.a. / Béla Bartok: Tänze, Lieder, Stücke Für Kinder / Dances, Songs, Pieces For Children (1992)	- hmmm... evilamazon attribute this series to old friends, "digital sound" - makes sense, given the front inserts' "digital-classic" under the apparent label name, "vienna masters series", and the form of the cat#; but "digital sound" nor "digital-classic" appear to the viewer of the disc... - yr hmbl srppint leaves this problem to a suitable semi-divine being - is klepsie about? :grin:
ppint. 5th Jul 2015		CD Album Clara Matec, Stephan Nagy, Dragutin Hrdjok And Solisti Di Zagreb - B. Bartok: 15 Ungarische Bauernlieder U.a. / Béla Bartok: Tänze, Lieder, Stücke Für Kinder / Dances, Songs, Pieces For Children (1992)	given last sentence/2 lines in notes, should this be re-flagged "international" ?
ppint. 5th Jul 2015		CD Album Clara Matec, Stephan Nagy, Dragutin Hrdjok And Solisti Di Zagreb - B. Bartok: 15 Ungarische Bauernlieder U.a. / Béla Bartok: Tänze, Lieder, Stücke Für Kinder / Dances, Songs, Pieces For Children (1992)	i do not know why "allegro barbarco" is not included in the cd title, but it isn't. (i also s'spect it of being one or more mistranslations and/or tyops. . .)
ppint. 5th Jul 2015		CD Album Clara Matec, Stephan Nagy, Dragutin Hrdjok And Solisti Di Zagreb - B. Bartok: 15 Ungarische Bauernlieder U.a. / Béla Bartok: Tänze, Lieder, Stücke Für Kinder / Dances, Songs, Pieces For Children (1992)	tracks listed as 2-01 through 2-11 should be numbered 1-31 through 1-41 respectawigglily. (mod. comment: done!) the judge: thanks.
ppint. 5th Jul 2015		CD Album Various Artists - Mojo Presents My Generation (2015)	despite the cover date, the date of publication, and therefore of the release of the cd, is a month earlier - i.e. the august 2015 issue of the magazine is on-sale throughout the month of july 2015, and so the month of release of this cd is july 2015.
ppint. 2nd Jul 2015		CD Album Laurence Siegal And The New Philharmonic Orchestra, Alfred Scholz And The New Philharmonic Orchestra, Anton Nanut And Radio Symphony Orchestra Ljubljana - Tchaikovsky: Romeo And Juliet / The Sleeping Beauty / Symphony No. 6 B Minor Op. 74 "pathétique (1988)	sorry; track 1-07 composer credit should^W be^W now is "michail glinka". correction submitted. (3/7/15: thanks, o semi-divine being, redpunk.)
ppint. 30th Jun 2015		CD Album N. Kennedy, B. Greevy, R. Cohen, N. Del Mar &, V. Handley And London Philharmonic Orch, Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orch, O A Hughes And Hallé Orch, R. Hickox And Northern Sinfonia - Favourite Elgar (1993)	a pretty good intro-to-elgar sampler, and a great in-car cd; but it's too frustrating, for me, to not have the full pieces to sit down & listen to. . . come xmyth, i'll likely give this to a young friend. . .
ppint. 30th Jun 2015		CD Album Various Artists - Time Machine (2005)	comprehensive corrections to track-listings submitted for disc2. - ppint.
ppint. 30th Jun 2015		CD Album Various Artists - Coca Cola Commercials	- i think this'd be enough to drive anyone mad - that is, if they weren't mad already. - has anycatter sat down to listen to this all the way through - and succeeded?
ppint. 29th Jun 2015		CD Album Gabriel Bacquier, Hugues Cuénod, Placido Domingo, Joan Sutherland, Huguette Tourangeau, Richard Bonynge And Orchestre De La Suisse Romande And Choeurs - Offenbach: Les Contes D'hoffmann (1990)	the barcarole is perhaps better-known in the yuk for its use in a seasonal tv advert for cats, open fires, and plush sofas^W^W^W^W^W^W "a certain well-known irish cream & whisk(e)y liqueur". . .
ppint. 29th Jun 2015		CD Album Various Artists - Hits Of The Sixties Volume One (1989)	caveat emptor: watch out on *all* tring "product" - and any other sub-labels, & other labels emnating from ails^W tring - for cheap, non-original versions of what're headlined as the hits, on cds & tapes that often - usually? - 're not by the original line-up. (live in-concert recordings, whether by the original bands, & whether by the line-ups of the bands as're the same as those that had the hits, are another matter, and may well be worth your while - and the purchase price! :smile: - so long as it's clear that's what we're getting.)
ppint. 29th Jun 2015		CD Album Bill Wyman - Back To Basics (2015)	caught the interviewlet he did at glastonbury with jo wiley (sp?) on tv, with a clip or two: it sounds good - and so did he. i must keep an eye open for this.
ppint. 29th Jun 2015		CD Album Various Artists - That's Doowop (1991)	and there's a fair few there that aren't anyway doo-wop; not a bad "random radio" selection from the fifties & sixties - depending on whether they're the original, or inferior re-, recordings - but an album of doo-wop, it ain't.
ppint. 29th Jun 2015		CD Album Various Artists - The Best Of Buddah (1990)	buddah/kama sutra really was a split-personality operation, wasn't it - inspired singer-songwriter-driven folk groups; sublime "brill building"(& -style) commercial pop by stylish, sometimes manufactured, girl groups; "progressive" (fcvotw ;-) ); stone soul - and bubblegum. i know manglements change over time, and some keep their finger on the pulse pretty well, and some manage to move with changes in public taste, whatever their private preferences - "but. . ."
ppint. 28th Jun 2015		CD Album Chairmen Of The Board - Finder's Keepers (2002)	gosh - i wonder who they licensed these hdh-owned label's recordings from?
ppint. 28th Jun 2015		CD Album T. Rex - Loony As August On A Drunken Baboon	no cat#, no bar-code nor 12-13(+)-digit id no; declared label looks deliberately close to "capitol" - is this "a bootleg bolan" ? (- and the contact address for capital records's given as via exile, monte carlo - maybe germany's wrong, too?)
ppint. 28th Jun 2015		CD Album Uriah Heep - You Can't Keep A Good Band Down (2002)	nicoldo64: does no part of the outside of the box bear a bar-code & no. ~505015915272(n) (where "n" = a digit from 0-9 or X) ? - or any other twelve-thirteen digit no. including "...5272(n)" ? - or any sticky label attached to the outside of the original shrink-wrapping?
