TheJudge 16th Oct 2014		CD Album Half Man Half Biscuit - Urge For Offal (2014)	Well, I've just listened to it, and it's an absolute cracker!
TheJudge 16th Oct 2014		CD Album Half Man Half Biscuit - Urge For Offal (2014)	What does it say about me that I've posted this here before I've even had the chance to listen to it?
TheJudge 27th Sep 2014		CD Album Steeleye Span - Wintersmith (2013)	The Dark Morris Song: [YouTube Video]
TheJudge 27th Sep 2014		CD Album Kraftwerk - The Catalogue (2009)	Two hours it took, and that's just the discs and sleeves. I've had to resort to the camera for the front and back of the box, but I've put them at the bottom for now because the images aren't that good. (edit: improved the images enough to put them where they should be) As for the 12"-square art booklets, forgeddit! :-)
TheJudge 26th Sep 2014		CD Album Kraftwerk - The Catalogue (2009)	I think my scanner's just melted...
TheJudge 24th Sep 2014		CD Album Steve Tilston - Such & Such (2003)	Mirror Dance: [YouTube Video]
TheJudge 24th Sep 2014		CD Album Señor Coconut Y Su Conjunto - El Baile Alemán (2000)	By all rights, it shouldn't work. But it does work, and in some cases supremely well.
TheJudge 24th Sep 2014		CD Album Pulp - We Love Life (2001)	A sticker on the front of the jewel case states that this is a 'Special Edition', but I've been unable to find out what differentiates it from the standard one except that the 'secondary' cat# for mine is 586 540-2 and there's also a version (if Discogs is to be believed) with the cat# 586 541-2.
TheJudge 24th Sep 2014		CD Album Señor Coconut Y Su Conjunto - El Baile Alemán (2000)	Tour De France (Merengue): [YouTube Video]
TheJudge 24th Sep 2014		CD Album Steely Dan - Showbiz Kids: The Steely Dan Story 1972-1980 (2000)	With acknowledgement to RPFiller, better front booklet image uploaded.
TheJudge 24th Sep 2014		CD Album Various Artists - Flashing Echo (2002)	As ever, I can't scan the front of the slipcase due to stickers (why did I do that?), but the front of the booklet is identical anyway.
TheJudge 23rd Sep 2014		CD Album Toumani Diabate With Ballake Sissoko - New Ancient Strings/Nouvelles Cordes Anciennes (1999)	Unable to scan the front of the slipcase due to stickers; however, it's identical to the front of the booklet.
TheJudge 23rd Sep 2014		CD Album Mike Oldfield - Tubular Bells III (1998)	With acknowledgement to kab2112, clearer front scan uploaded.
TheJudge 22nd Sep 2014		CD Album Genesis - Archive 1967-75 (1998)	I can't scan the front of the pack due to a sticker, but it's identical to the front of the book.
TheJudge 22nd Sep 2014		CD Album Robert Calvert - Test-Tube Conceived (1997)	Thanks To The Scientists: [YouTube Video]
TheJudge 22nd Sep 2014		CD Album Hawkwind - The 1999 Party (1997)	Unable to scan the front of the slipcase due to stickers. However, it's identical to the front of the booklet.
TheJudge 22nd Sep 2014		CD Album Half Man Half Biscuit - Voyage To The Bottom Of The Road (1997)	Eno Collaboration (Remix): [YouTube Video]
TheJudge 20th Sep 2014		CD Album Datblygu - Wyau & Pyst = 32 Bom = 1987-90 (1995)	Gwlad Ar Fy Nghefn: [YouTube Video]
TheJudge 20th Sep 2014		CD Album Datblygu - Wyau & Pyst = 32 Bom = 1987-90 (1995)	The rear of the insert is supposed to be upside down when the front of it is the right way up. Do not adjust your set.
TheJudge 17th Sep 2014		CD Album Half Man Half Biscuit - This Leaden Pall (1993)	Another scanning annoyance: the background of the back of the booklet and the rear card is supposed to be grey, not nearly white.
TheJudge 15th Sep 2014		CD Album The Orb - Peel Sessions (1991)	A Huge Ever Growing... [YouTube Video] This constitutes one of those musical moments which come along once or twice in your life. I'd never heard of these guys until this, and I remember lying in the dark on a December night in 1989 listening to this on headphones, and having my mind blown open by it.
TheJudge 15th Sep 2014		CD Album Hawkwind - Palace Springs (1991)	Treadmill: [YouTube Video]
TheJudge 15th Sep 2014		CD Album Hawkwind - Space Ritual Volume 2 (1990)	Another scanning glitch: the disc is actually silver rather than bronze.
TheJudge 14th Sep 2014		CD Album Hawkwind - Night Of The Hawk (1989)	Cajun Jinx (illustrated by the cover of Out And Intake, where it first appeared): [YouTube Video]
TheJudge 14th Sep 2014		CD Album Hawkwind - Spirit Of The Age (1988)	The Forge Of Vulcan: [YouTube Video]
TheJudge 7th Sep 2014		CD Album Hawkwind - The Church Of Hawkwind (1994)	Something went completely cuckoo with the front booklet scan on this one. The main colour is supposed to be identical to the one on the rear card, i.e. a sort of slate grey. However, it scans as a sort of mottled green, and the fiddling I've had to do with the image hardly gets close to how it really looks.
TheJudge 7th Sep 2014		CD Album Genesis - Abacab (1987)	Hmmm...my disc was made by MPO not PDO (I knew that one company had that problem, and thought it was MPO. Apparently not). The disc plays OK and - having had it about 20 years - assume that either it's not going to be a problem or that the disc was that colour all along, and I just hadn't noticed until I came to scan it.
TheJudge 6th Sep 2014		CD Album Frank Zappa - You Are What You Is (1995)	You Are What You Is: [YouTube Video]
TheJudge 6th Sep 2014		CD Album Genesis - Abacab (1987)	Having now come to scan this item, I don't remember the disc being that colour before. I seem to remember that there was a problem with discs pressed by MPO in the UK that they did turn brown after a while (although I can't find anything about that with a cursory online search, Could this be one such victim?
TheJudge 6th Sep 2014		CD Album John Cooper Clarke - Snap, Crackle [&] Bop (1994)	Beasley Street - still a classic of its time, still timeless (alas!): [YouTube Video]
