You can get running orders of the editions from Caversham by accessing the camera scripts (rather than the PasBs, which just give an out-of-sequence listing of the content). I gathered a lot of this info myself from the early days when at Caversham a few years back. You should have asked me, chaps - I could probably have helped with running orders for some of the early editions! You still could on a later edition Lawrence. send me a message and ill e mail you Just send me a personal message here or U2U on Mausoleum, Pete. |

TOTP real audio means that some perf's exist as a Real Audio file from that edition But that cannot be the *only* format that they exist in? Surely, this should say "exists on audio tape" or "transcription disk" or something. RA wasn't around in 1972 or whatever! Well you could have got away without colour - and there's no way Kal would have coughed up for it. I would have done it like this: Pre 1976 editions - says where whole edition survives next to title, if nothing mentioned, then *whole edition* does not survive. Where clips survive from an *otherwise missing edition*, this is mentioned next to the actual song. Post 1976 - complete edition survives except where mentioned. I could list dozens of times where it simply isn't clear from what's printed what survives and what doesn't. Even the "Disco" surviving stuff (the complete lists of which are on this forum) is only listed sporadically, and then often not stating it is from "Disco" but saying which VHS has it! Sorry, Pete, don't want to sound negative, but what I see here is "first draft" stuff. It's needs/needed copy-editing and checking in great detail. When Richard M was doing the Kaleidoscope "Upstairs, Downstairs" book, it was the same. What I was given as supposedly the final version was a joke - can you believe, for example, that every quotation opened with a closing quote mark! TX dates (including for "UpDown" itself!) were often wrong! I offered to give it a proper going over, and spent weeks cross-checking every single fact I could, re-reading, re-punctuating, re-phrasing. What we ended up with was a book where only 7 factual mistakes have been noticed to day (and that book has sold in big numbers worldwide). Your TOTP book needed something similar. Steve |
