Catalogue soundtrack vinyl

Search for the film, then check you have the edition you own. An expanded reissue, an original album, and a later compilation of the same film are different records. The cover title is the one to save, because that is what you will look for.

A note can hold the composer, the label, or the year of that edition if the cover credit is confusing. People file soundtracks under the film. The catalogue should let you do the same.

If the search attaches the wrong artist, or a different film with a similar name, do not save it. Add the record by hand with the film as the title, and put the composer in the note.

A gatefold, a booklet of stills, or a poster can be the reason you kept that pressing. Mention them in the notes. They are not a second record. They are part of the copy you have.

Two editions you own are two rows. An edition you want, such as the original album rather than the reissue, belongs on the wishlist until it is in the house. The price guide should follow the pressing you selected. Type a price if you know what you paid.

Search the soundtrack title and save the pressing that matches the sleeve. Upload a photo if you want that exact jacket on the shelf. Track lists help when you remember a song and not the film.

Use the name on the sleeve you own for a composer-led reissue, and mention the film in the notes so both ways of remembering it still work.
