Right, you didn't enter 'pop'. Someone else did, or somehow defaulted to pop, and their application (iTunes, etc) sent it to the Gracenote Database, which is where your application pulled it from. The database appears to retain alternate sets of metadata and sometimes you are asked by your application to choose which one fits your cd.

Guess I should have said "historic recordings aside ..." Obviously things like Charlie Brown Christmas and Nat Cole's recording stay in print or get the deluxe treatment. But where is the average jazz Christmas recording that gets reissued?

I got the Byas and Sanders sets at the same time. I'll have to go back and recheck how the Sanders loaded but I don't have any presets that would put Byas or anyone else in "pop". It was a weird occurrence and a minor annoyance since my library is pretty large, which causes these tracks to get buried in obscurity bc I rarely if ever access my collection for pop.

Symphonies Nos. 3&4

My father is the real reason I love music so much, and also have an interest in audio playback. I spent many many hours as a kid and as an adult hearing what he was hearing, and I'm so grateful.

Many thanks for your remembrances of Guy, which are quite similar to mine! And also for the links.

Great choice, really cool 👍 I actually don't know what my father liked to listen to, so I am happy you do. Killer record!

And now, I was thinking of my Dad and decided to hear something he would spin. My family rarely played any secular Xmas music when we were growing up, as a minister and a classical music lover he just didn’t want to hear that stuff. THIS was his Christmas go to . . . and I decided to listen to disc 1 of my cd copy this morning.

International Phonograph CD

I regret not knowing how to even be part of the secret society that has heard even the sessions that do "get around", such as the Train Wreck, and I guess the Wayne produced by Pearson. 🤔

You have it??? This is not one that gets around! Cuscuna told me the tape was lost.
