*** REVIEW FOR THE 2012 8TH EDITION ***The 5th Edition of this massive American publication came out in 2000 and at 1226 pages (A4 size) was an impressive beast. Version 6 turned up in 2008 and had expanded to 1392 pages and even contained a DVD attached to the back cover (both issues covered 1950 to 1975). I then -reviewed the 7th EDITION because its parameters had expanded from 1948 to 1991 for the first time - and covering many more 'genres' than the preceding issues in its huge 1344 pages (published 2010). Well here is the 8th Edition from September 2012 - and again the detail is gargantuan - and worth explaining...Published in the USA by Krause Publications and costing $38.00 (three more than the last issue) - it carries 150,000 entries across a whopping 1344 pages (1219 of actual valuations & discographies). The first 24 pages feature Contents, How-To-Guides, Grading and Pricing Charts, articles on the escalating value of 'sealed' vinyl, interest in the mixes of Quadraphonic LPs, US 7" picture sleeves for Teen Artists, the effect of eBay on collecting, how to downsize a vinyl collection to digital - and more. The last 20 pages carry full-page colour adverts for stores, dealers and suppliers as well as a very handy STORE DIRECTORY for each US State (addresses, phone numbers, e-mails etc). This oversized paperback is huge and heavy - so check those P&P rates...LAYOUT:The layout is the same as before - each artist gets their vinyl 45's first, then EPs and last their LP albums (all in label `numerical' order). A fantastically helpful thing is that the 78" and 7" entries have the A & B-sides listed - while the LPs feature both Mono and Stereo issues (including partial and re-channelled Stereo as separate entries where applicable).
