The Library Catalogue Thread (UK Edition)

[Moon Monkey]

Hiya, I've got nothing else I'm afraid. If I ever get any more info it will be on here within hours!

[Lord Thames]

I assume the Cavendish catalogues make no mention of the missing CAV 3?

I'm impressed at how much B&H were charging the ordinary man on the street for one of their LPs in 1981 - it's the equivalent of about £70 these days!

[Moon Monkey]

Can confirm that the pesky CAV 3 is missing from the red 1974-ish catalogue, the green 1976-ish and the 1982-ish.

A few updates:

Chappell Recorded Music Library, 1962 [Version D] - yet another iteration of this one!

Chappell - Yet more Supplements - five more covering C.829-894

Chappell Catalogue, c.1985 + additional pages, 1985-86 - the 80s version of the big red folder

Chappell Recorded Music Library: Brochure, c.1997?


Rouge, c.1975 - don't get excited. Two pages found in a De Wolfe folder.


KPM, c.1966

[Mr]

Wow, I love the design of that KPM cat.! It looks like an alternative sleeve design

[Moon Monkey]

Oh gosh, I hadn't even noticed! I don't actually own any early KPM LPs so wasn't overly familiar with the real thing. Definitely looks like the work of the same designer, doesn't it. Lovely stuff.

[Moon Monkey]

...And the first catalogues I've seen that are Year 2K compliant! Two KPM catalogues on CD-ROM:

KPM Music Finder v2.0, 1999
KPM Music Finder v3.0, 2001

The KPM CD-ROMs are now joined by two more catalogues-on-disc from Carlin. Huge thanks to nidostar for getting the antiquated disc to run and providing screengrabs.

I've also upgraded some of the photos that were hosted on Imgur, as they're no longer viewable in the UK without a VPN. Still a few more to do that I'll get round to at some point.

ALSO ADDED: an FDH catalogue, c.1966 and some Canadian Boosey & Hawkes Statements and Complimentary Slips, 1956/57.

[Moon Monkey]

A few tweaks and minor additions, including BBC Sound Effects and revised entries for Chappell 1962 Versions A and B. I've lost the full list as my computer has just died, so might be a while before any more updates.

Also added JW Theme Music sleeves, 1957 and 58. Once everything's back up and running I'll replace these with proper scans

EDIT: Also added to the Miscellaneous section, a Chappell Catalogue & Order Form for sheet music from 1978. Not library music but quite cute!

[Mr]

Nice finds, as always! I'm amazed you're still finding new stuff.

I find it a bit amusing that one of the piano pieces you can order sheet music for through that miscellaneous Chappell catalogue is, in fact, "Eye Level", a library cue from... De Wolfe.

A few Chappell additions -

News from Chappell Recorded Music Library, c.1969 --- newsletter announcing forthcoming changes to the Chappell range.

Assorted supplemental pages for both Chappell Big Red Catalogues, 1969-1979
