ppint. 5th Apr 2015 | | CD AlbumThin Lizzy - Classic Airwaves (2005) | I suspect there is no such label as "americal legends".
|
ppint. 5th Apr 2015 | | CD AlbumTom Petty - Broadcast Rarities (2005) | tyop/spello for american legends label.
|
ppint. 5th Apr 2015 | | CD AlbumFrank Zappa - Transmissions (2005) | looks like a tyop/spelloes for (sanctuary music group's? someone else's?) american legends label/series.
|
ppint. 5th Apr 2015 | | CD AlbumNat King Cole - The Collection (2006) | the "therb" prefix stands for "the red box": is the red box "label" - logo, for cds - on the disc?
5/2021 edit: as may now be seen after the disc image has been added, it does bear the red box logo.
|
ppint. 5th Apr 2015 | | CD AlbumJanis Joplin With Big Brother And The Holding Company - Live At Winterland '68 (1998) | 01 485150 10 is one of the sony cat no. & bar-code no.-derived numbers appearing on the disc and package. persons objecting to this are welcome to complain or otherwise take the matter up with sony.
|
ppint. 5th Apr 2015 | | CD AlbumVarious Artists - Atlantic Soul Classics | stax (and satellite, before stax), volt & enterprise were never part of the atlantic records corp, inc.
jim stewart's account of ahmet ertegun's response when - pretty mildly, all things considered - reproached for not, eventually, putting matters right may also be instructive, as well as very definitely germane.
|
ppint. 4th Apr 2015 | | CD AlbumChris Hillman - Desert Rose (1990) | the production run is signed by no-one.
|
ppint. 4th Apr 2015 | | CD AlbumJethro Tull - Benefit (1987) | dated to 2000 from the date on emi ltd.'s card sleeve, but may be from 1986 by comparison with other chrysalis cd cat#s. only the date of the original lp appears on the cd itself, and the inserts.
|
ppint. 3rd Apr 2015 | | CD AlbumProcol Harum - Shine On Brightly (1995) | the original regal zonophone lp sleeve painting's far better (imnsho :-) ).
|
ppint. 3rd Apr 2015 | | CD AlbumVarious Artists - Atlantic Soul Classics | 50% of "atlantic soul classics" are stax records? - that figures.
|
ppint. 3rd Apr 2015 | | CD AlbumJanis Joplin With Big Brother And The Holding Company - Live At Winterland '68 (1998) | no references other than to sony music entertainment inc. (& variations thereupon), but may be a yeurppean, uk or international edition.
|
ppint. 2nd Apr 2015 | | CD AlbumJethro Tull - Minstrel In The Gallery (2002) | uk edition of identical track listing, bar-code & cat#, on emi/chrysalis label disc, emi label front insert booklet & back insert, ©2002 copyright owned by chrysalis records ltd. 2002 emi records ltd.
|
ppint. 2nd Apr 2015 | | CD AlbumJethro Tull - This Was (2000) | dated 2000 cos that's the date on emi ltd's card sleeve; only bears the 1968 date of the original lp, and may properly be dated 1986(??).
|
ppint. 2nd Apr 2015 | | CD AlbumDionne Warwick - The Windows Of The World (1994) | the hinged pasteboard box's colour-printed front, back and top declare this to be "the original album - limited edition"; the front & back inserts and the disc itself, which bear a different disky cat# and bar-code, do not. the fly front edge of the box states "includes bonus tracks"; there are sixteen tracks listed on both the rear of the box, and on the disc & back insert.
the limited nature of the pasteboard boxed edition would seem to lie solely in its extra packaging.
disky cat# of the disc (and inserts): DCD 5400; bar-code: 8711539061579.
|
ppint. 2nd Apr 2015 | | CD AlbumMary Chapin Carpenter - State Of The Heart | mods: the "col" prefix to sony inc.'s cat# suggests this may be a uk edition, but all references are to columbia/sony inc, and none to any uk/eu entity except perhaps in mary chapin carpenter's "heartfelt thanks to cbs records john and bob, and my band."
|
ppint. 1st Apr 2015 | | CD AlbumThe Byrds - The Byrds Collection (1988) | "all tracks licensed from cbs records & original sound recordings made by cbs inc."
|
ppint. 1st Apr 2015 | | CD AlbumBurning Spear - Best Of The Fittest (2001) | unfortunately the 6pp incl. f&b cvrs of the booklet in my copy of this cd are struck together and would need to be steamed apart - with legibility uncertain, even then; anycdcatter out there with an openable - and legible - booklet, who'd bsgat provide composer, musicians, producer, engineer(s) credits, perhaps?
|
ppint. 1st Apr 2015 | | CD AlbumThe Ventures - Driving Guitars (2002) | kab2112: do the front or back printed inserts give no clue as to the source of these recordings (or re-recordings), nor give the tracks' any composer credits?
|
ppint. 1st Apr 2015 | | CD AlbumThe Marvelettes - Compact Command Performances (1986) | eu edition motown 530 041-2, 731453004122 © & (p) 1986 mfd in germany, distr by polygram. front insert is a flimsy singly-folded piece of paper listing track titles, composers, publishers, producers, publication dates, and credits john matousek for compilation & mastering the cd.
|
ppint. 1st Apr 2015 | | CD AlbumSimply Red - Stars (1991) | produced by stewart levine for oliviera prodns ltd, co-produced by hucknall for simply red records. see notes for compact cassette version, 9031-75284-4, for full musicians listing.
|
ppint. 31st Mar 2015 | | CD AlbumSon House - The Original Delta Blues (1998) | all tracks recorded 12-14/4/1965, in new york: no further recording information given on disc or on package inserts.
|
ppint. 30th Mar 2015 | | CD AlbumRising Sons - Rising Sons Featuring Taj Mahal And Ry Cooder (1993) | colour balance dept? my copy's inserts are definitely printed in red, blue & black on white paper (rather than dull orange, blue & black) - but sony eu (the disc was mfd in austria) may've ordered/imported more than one printing of the inserts, so who knows?
|
ppint. 30th Mar 2015 | | CD AlbumDonovan - What's Bin Did And What's Bin Hid (2001) | card slip-through sleeve of this "expanded deluxe edition" of "donovan's original album" bears inset in four colour printing on dull cobalt blue picture of the singer-songwriter leaning against a trolley-bus or tram (wires) cast-iron standard (a common piece of inner-big city & metropolitan "street furniture" through the sixties).
|
ppint. 30th Mar 2015 | | CD AlbumDonovan - Fairy Tale (2001) | castle music cat# for this cd is actually cmrcd360, not mmrcd360.
tracks 13-16 are the pye ep, "universal soldier", NEP 24219 13/8/65, which made at least some of the then rival singles charts, uncommon for the four-track 7" ep which cost between 1.5 & 2 times the price of a single.
track 1 lacks donovan's harmonica bridge featured on the hit single version, and
track 14 is an alternate version to track 10, lacking a verse of the album version.
tracks 17-18 are the a & b-sides of pye single, 7N15984 29/10/65.
this "expanded deluxe edition" of "donovan's original album" comes, or came, in a slip-through card sleeve, front printed in a dull cobalt blue featuring the singer-songwriter leaning against a trolley-bus or tram (wires') standard post; the original front cover is inset, in black on white.

ppint. 28th Mar 2015 | | CD AlbumThe Velvet Underground - The Velvet Underground (1996) | philmh: the data is as i have stated, above and in comment, below: and i rather doubt that a&m records, inc, were managing the polydor label in germany, the uk or across yeurrrp at that time - or any other...
|
ppint. 28th Mar 2015 | | CD AlbumNina Simone - The Nina Simone Collection: A Selection Of Tracks Recorded For The Colpix Label 1959-1964 (2004) | composer credits are printed in very small light orange type on the white ground; misreadings may have been caused thereby, and corrections are invited accordingly.
|
ppint. 27th Mar 2015 | | CD AlbumNina Simone - Fine And Mellow (2004) | the english language translation of jacques brel's "ne me quitte pas" is entitled "if you go away".
|
ppint. 27th Mar 2015 | | CD AlbumNina Simone - My Baby Just Cares For Me (1993) | the logic (?) of the liner notes suggests the "missing" tracks are "for all we know", "he needs me" & "he's got the whole world in his hands"; but i am not sure of this. and to further complicate calculations, she also recorded her own "african mailman" for bethlehem, who released it. . .
|
ppint. 26th Mar 2015 | | CD AlbumDinah Washington - Dinah Washington (2001) | composer credits on back insert are in tiny, and very thin white type created by reversing out black print on a white field - the results are not exactly clearly legible: corrections're invited.
|
ppint. 26th Mar 2015 | | CD AlbumDave Davies - Chosen People (2005) | first released in 1983 on warner 92-3917-2, apparently; a fact that the recorded music side of that doubtless very worthy conglomerate neglected to make widespread - else i'd've got it then.
- did any vinyl/cdcatter buy or otherwise get hold of it, that first time around?
