The Library Catalogue Thread

Yeah, no problem. Give me a few days though.

Sounds good! Thank you.

Under the 1976 supplement for Emil Ascher, what library labels have the catalog numbers FS 106, TMGG 1-6, and ERP X2 listed under the Harmonic Mood Music Library?

Tried typing them into the "Catalog #" input field on the advanced search page on Discogs, but couldn't find anything.

This is unrelated to the Ascher catalogs, but still, it's a rare new addition to the list that I encountered in my absence from the site. The final image in this archived eBay listing is the introduction page to a master catalog to a REALLY obscure sound effects library called Globe Sound (aka General Music), run by library music entrepreneur Gordon Zahler. What I'd do to read the full thing someday...

Good question! Just to be clear, that's TMGG 1 through to TMGG 6, then two discs with the ERP prefix. And, oops, FS 106 is another bloody typo - should have read FS 1-6 (again, FS 1 through to FS 6). I'll get some shots up in a few days time. IIRC, the very same pages also appear in the Music People folder from around the same period.

Excellent find, thank you! Will add shortly...

OK, just done a few quick shots of the Ring pages and the mystery Harmonic listings.. Anyone know what they are?

EDIT: These shots are from the Music People catalogue - the pages are identical to their Ascher counterparts apart from the branding at the bottom of the page.

The "TMG" albums are reissues from the French Timing library, with different cat. numbers for some reason and retitled. For instance, Timing No. 2 (TIM 2) has been renamed to "Hard Water" (TMG 2).

The first Ring album, "Big Band Skyline", is a reissue of an album released on the Austrian WM Produktion label. The rest are early releases of some of the earlier Golden Ring albums.

Ah, yes, it should have occurred to me that FS stood for "Freesound".

For the ERP labels, on the other hand, they were originally releases from the "Kuckuck" label in Germany, and were licensed in the U.K. through C. Brull, Ltd., which was the company that distributed their own Harmonic Mood Music label.

Thanks for clearing this up!

Thank you for this. Regarding Regency Line. RL 1032 and RL 1035 have been missing. Does the catalog also mention which is which? RL 1032 could be the Baroque album Bruton reissued. RL 1035 could be India / Arabia?

Bad news with this one - the Ascher and Music People catalogues both finish at 1033 but skip 1031 and 1032. They're both complete up to that point though.
