Proton 1 - Discogs, again

 PROTON 1 compilation 


Obviously it is a Compilation.    Discogs just won't list it as one.

You could say 'Sampler' but it was put together.   That is what a compilation is.

Am I wrong?

Proton 1


It is of course on YooTuube, at least at this time.

Discogs Donnybrook

well, another   brou-ha- ha at Discogs over data entry of the radio station premium.   I had maintained that the Premiums were Not Bootlegs and should not be labeled as Unofficial Release or Unauthorised. Assumed some sort of permission was given by the artists or their agents. (well ok that was naive).   Premiums were given to people  who had donated to the station, after the fact, and were marked Not For Sale.  [ The station is 100% listener-supported , no N.P. R. , no current university status or or anything like that  ]  They, the CDRs,  were Not Sold at the point that they were released.   Later, of course, as used items, they get sold any old place, as would a WCBS Compilation or any other record, CD or CDR... or cassette.   Exception you cannot sell them on Discogs if they are listed in discogs as "unauthorised".     Eventually decided to avoid Discogs in order not to to sow confusion---->   ( because, according to goobypls, these are all bootlegs !)   Really, just avoiding adding any more of these to the database.   No more in the mix.   *Pity, since the mission of discogs, apparently was to help eliminate confusion.

Well, as it turns out, The items in question were mostly from a collection of DJs at a certain radio station*   and they are mostly basically Mixtapes.  (The exception being the in-station Live performances, of which there are several.    The dispute was about the Compilations.  
So yeah,   I was wrong.

* the station is clearly the best on the planet in terms of music programming,  no doubt about it in my mind.

(Various) - Spanning The Globe With Todd-O-Phonic Todd (2015 WFMU Premium)

wow. Finally got this entered into the Discogs database. Probably always should check that it wasn't there already. Amazingly there are many videos associated with this, likely because some were big hits in the home countries. Another Video, "Pregunto" And Another Lots of 60s Beat stuff here, not so much Garage. The lone Surf contrbution, unless I missed one, was this see also Rollin Beats video- and >Beatmen Todd always delivers. Recommended ! in fact, g00gLe Todd or search DuckDuckGo or Ask Jeeves if you get a chance, folks: - found this: Rubinoos. The Rubinoos "Sheena Is A Punk Rocker" (Live) Uploaded by Bouloup on Nov 5, 2021 Live on Todd-o-phonic Todd's Show WFMU-FM Studios, le 22 Octobre 2016
