Researching UK Catalogue Numbers

Post by jim devlin »

Just doing a bit of research and looking for a few UK/CBS catalogue numbers. If anyone can find them for 'More Best Of' (from 1997), 'Field Commander Cohen' (2001), The Complete Columbia Albums Collection (the 18-disc box set, 2011), and Live In Fredericton, the EP, issued on 21 April 2012 (for 1 day only!!) - I'd be grateful.
Thanks,
Jim

Mini Discs! Remember them? Seems that a few of Leonard's albums were issued on them 1994-2001, according to the notes on the Collectors' pages on this site. I have (why?!) The Future Mini Disc, with its catalogue number as per CD, replacing the final 2 with 3; the pic on that Collectors' page has More Best Of, again final 2 replaced with 3; safe to assume, perhaps, the others are the same: by which i mean Live In Concert (1994) and 10 New Songs (2001). So, can anyone verify the existence of these two Mini Discs please? And their catalogue numbers too please?
Thanks, Jim

I don't think this will be of any help regarding the MiniDiscs, but this is a great source:

I don't own any MiniDiscs, so can't help you out here...

OK, a new challenge!! Can anyone please confirm a US catalogue number for me please, for the fabulous film 'McCabe & Mrs Miller' film?
I have Columbia 7684; what i need is confirmation that it is a commercial release, NOT just a promo or demo for radio stations and the like (cos there are loads of LC singles like that I can tell you!!).
Thanks again, Jim
