CD Catalogue from England is Schwann-like, but better

[sulak@ge-dab.GE.COM (John M. Sulak)]

I highly recommend the "Music Master CD Catalogue", the English  version of
our Schwann CD Catalog, but much much better. Quoting the back  cover of
mine:

"The Music Master CD Catalogue lists all popular (i.e. non-classical) 
compact discs held in the Music Master database at the time of going to 
press. Both 5 CDs and 3 CDs are included as are all CD videos. The CD 
catalogue is a 'master' edition which means that it is a complete listing 
of available products, not an update. All currently available CDs are of 
course included plus all CDs notified to us as being deleted. For most CDs 
is given a full track listing plus label name, catalogue number(s), release 
dates and deletion dates. A nice feature of this book is the inclusion of 
biographical details for hundreds of artists and groups.
ISBN 0904520404 Price #9.95 + #2 p+p" [p+p is postage and packing]

I just ordered today, its companion, "Music Master Tracks Catalogue". From 
May 1989, it lists "420,000 tracks regardless of whether on albums, 
cassettes, CDs, CD videos, music video tapes, or 7" and 12" singles. After 
each track is given a list of artists who have recorded the title and the 
relevant recording name. e.g. Who has recorded 'Ain't misbehavin''? Answer: 
practically everyone - well over 100 recordings are listed. Price #14.95 + 
#2 p+p" [p+p probably a bit higher to USA]

They also have similar catalogs for albums, etc. Order by Access, Visa 
[what I use], Diners Club, or American Express card number and exiry date. 
[note that 1# is approx $1.5 to $1.6 depending on market conditions]

There is only one minor drawback to the EXCELLENT CD Music Master: In that 
event that a CD is on more than one label with more than one CD number, 
only the English CD label and number is provided. i.e. Elvis Costello 
catalogue is on Denon not Columbia, etc.
