Comments and Reviews


Fokeman ● 29th Oct 2024		The problem is that the Highway label clearly shows on the discs and it's the same picture. But we could consider that. They're not technically different labels. I'll discuss it with the Mods.



Gian_paolo 28th Oct 2024		Still I feel the proper Highway label and the Highway / Trailer one, should be two separate entries, just my opinion of course



Fokeman ● 28th Oct 2024		Yes, I can answer that last question, belatedly. The Trailer/Leader catalogue was bought wholesale at the point of bankruptcy of the Leader company. The Zollman family who owned Highway and who operated out of Redditch, Worcestershire used the back catalogue, as best they could and reissued Nic Jones, Dick Gaughan and many other of the excellent recordings that came with the label. They also continued to sell existing stock but put a Highway sticker on the back of sleeve. Sadly, they went the same way only about 6 years later, whereupon they were, themselves, bought out, lock stock and barrel, by Celtic Music, owned at the time by Dave Bulmer. Bulmer had been a northern musician who played accordion and accompanied a wonderful flute and piccolo player, John Doonan, touring the festivals with him in the 1970s.



Lee Wrecker 21st Jul 2017		Maybe we should list this as a Highway / Trailer release as both company logos are prominent on the jacket and label? I'm sure there's an interesting story behind how these two companies are so intertwined but I don't know it. Does anybody know how Highway came to re-release most (perhaps all) of the Trailer catalogue with the same cat#s in the 1970's?



chrisb 3rd Jul 2017		Where this has happened with the other Nic Jones releases, each has been given a separate entry- I was only being consistent with this approach. Same catalogue number yes, but a much later re-release on a different label.



Lee Wrecker 3rd Jul 2017		Ahh! I see this problem has already been encountered here before and might I suggest the same solution of the Trailer / Highway double label billing. It makes sense to me as both are apparent here. The linked release just shuffles the original release images in front of those from re-releases with the same label as this one. Problem solved??



Lee Wrecker 3rd Jul 2017		1971 is the original release date as per the label and a quick scour of the net reveals that this version carries the same cat# so it should be listed as a 1971 release even though it is a reissue. When the original turns up we just shuffle those images into the the primary spots. I'll add 1971 as the release date on the basis of the above. Could be wrong though as this has two labels Trailer the original and this one is distributed by Highway. Think I've jumped the gun here and I might send a correction to remove the date. I'll do some more digging.



chrisb 2nd Jul 2017		Early 80s reissue
