We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be.

True, but they make identifying the exact version you have that much closer to being 100% accurate!

I thought your eagle eye would be all in on correcting wrong entries 😂

No they don't !

Some twat kept changing the Craft Black Impressions of Orpheus listing and notes removing any mention that it was a 3 LP set.

Only some confusion over

"Format -
first line with 'Vinyl, LP, Album' for a 'Reissue' of 'Jazz Impressions Of Black Orpheus';
2nd line with '2 x Vinyl, LP' for the 2 additional vinyl of Alternate takes & Outtakes.

So we have 1 x Vinyl + 2 x vinyl = 3 x vinyl."

It's been changed since the last time I looked !

The record companies own simpler, easier to read description "Deluxe Expanded 3 LP Edition" was rejected.

1/ done
2/ done it occasionally
3/ found a holy grail cd last year and paid mightily for it
4a/ sell records
5/ maybe they deserve to be forgotten. We all make mistakes
6/ no
7/ no
8/ as I sell them
9/ why if they don't have a worthwhile or any cd selection

Done😁
