A-ha! There seems to be an error on the credits of BBC Children’s Themes REH 486, 1983 “TAKE HART (The Gallery Theme, "Marguerite") - Bob Morgan and Stepping Out” But the KPM record shows that Stepping Out is a track title.
World Cup! The Story of Britain in the World Cup Championship since 1950 Narrated by Jack Charlton O.B.E. REC 592, 1986 FREE WALLCHART IN FULL COLOUR WITH COMPLETE FIXTURE LIST
BBC Wildlife Series, completed! Field recordings by Ludwig Koch, Eric Simms etc. in delightfully consistent, lecture themed photographic slide sleeves.
I said I would try to add some infographics to my site on how far I am with collecting the BBC Records catalogue. Here's the first bit of that. RE LP catalogue numbers only, and there's an error with the unreleased numbers to fix. Still... www.bbcrecords.co.uk/wp/collectio...
How the BBC shelving is going: update 8 The main RE catalogue has bust further out. I’d already taken out the chunk of Digital Stereo Jazz LPs, now the 700+ numbers are out. The 600s are on borrowed time as I still have bunch of other stuff still to go in here.
There’s… umm, a lot going on in this sleeve illustration. Sound Effects No. 18 Holiday Sounds REC 301, 1978.
Happy #internationalsynthday! EMS Synthi A The Radiophonic Workshop RED 93, 1973 Radiophonic Workshop organiser Desmond Briscoe’s actual shed!
“Think back to your childhood. Do you remember when the anxiety started?”
All reissues of the first nine BBC Sound Effects LPs are mine at last, completing my collection of the UK releases. 9 different images 9 different type faces Back sleeves are all unchanged from the original issues. Same catalogue numbers. Next in my sights is the Wildlife Series.
Need! Sound Effects No.6 reissue sleeve RED 106, 1971 I think I just need no.7 to complete the set of reissues now.
Now playing Mozart Horn Concertos The Four Horn Concertos and The Fragment In E MICHAEL THOMPSON BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra Conductor: Jerzy Maksymiuk REN 600, 1986
Because it’s a wholly musical recording all the explanation is contained in the included leaflet. John Levy’s notes are dated April 1968 and i reckon it was released in October.
