Comments and Reviews


Madame Streggae 20th Feb 2025		Thanks Sidney - you may well be right about the sort dates. Anyway, I've just added TBL 145. Interesting that by and large the producers seem to have got the composer credits! Another headache for the mods perhaps but ideally there should be a 'Producer' column for VA comps. It's probably more important than composer credits for Reggae.



carryonsidney 20th Feb 2025		I think the sort order is affected by the release dates? IE they sort via date first unless the sort is manually done behind the scenes. Trouble is we have some very vague dates for the albums? I'll ask on the Mod forum for you.



Madame Streggae 19th Feb 2025		I do have TBL 145 with the non-die cut sleeve and no poster and I do need to add it. If mods are reading this however, please can they do something about the out of synch numbers in the Trojan listing, which are all over the place. Not sure about TBL 145 being issued in 1973 - sequentially, it would have been issued in late 1970, probably after all the die-cuts had run out and Trojan needed to repress it to meet demand. Pretty sure I bought mine in `72. Maybe it was a bureaucratic thing where they needed to assign it a new number?



carryonsidney 19th Feb 2025		According the 'other' site the version of this with a normal type sleeve but otherwise identical has its own CAT# TBL 145 ? released in 1973? (they say). There is also a DIE CUT TBL35 but this could be a misprint?



Madame Streggae 18th Feb 2023		After the 'poster' copies had sold out, subsequent sleeves were printed without the aperture in the middle. I bought mine in 1972 and this is how it came. I'm not sure I even knew about the poster.
