Hi guys
I have a question that has certainly already been discussed, but I cannot find a satisfactory answer. I'm starting to enter my beloved collection of New Zealand bands. It is well known that an extremely large number of records with 5 to 7 songs came out. Very many at 45rpm. I have seen that some things are listed at 12 "s, which I think is generally wrong, as they are mini-LPs that I would generally see in the LP section. Up to 4 songs closer to 12" s. What is the rule there? I don't think you should fix it in terms of speed. On the one hand I have 3 track records that run on 33 under 10 minutes, then many run on 45 longer than some LPs. Before I really started, I would have liked to know how I can / should deal with the problem.

There's no hard and fast rule the main thing is how it was marketed so if all the adverts state it was mini LP then that's where it goes if all the data shows it as an EP than 12". The same problem occurs with regards to CD's some have ended up posted as both albums and singles as there is doubt about which they are.
So add to the world you see as the best fit.
