medjuck Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 Ok so they made a mistake on both the outside and the insert of the double disc cd. Empty Hearted is not the 13th cuton disc one-- it's the 20th, so every cut between those two numbers is incorrectly listed. However when I insert thedisc into my computer, iTunes lists the cuts the same way as the package. Is that because the discs are entered intothe data base manually?

Chuck Nessa Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 It was entered from the information imbedded in the discs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medjuck Posted July 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 So the incorrect information is actually embedded in the disc? Wow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Nessa Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 Only a guess on my part but it makes everything else work. The other possibility is bad "hard copy" was sent to the internet databases but that seems so "old hat" today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 The first disc of the Vocalion Benny Goodman In Moscow thing loads up as a totally different album altogether, Something called Seven Come Eleven.Disc1. Disc two is correct, which is a drag because Disc 1 is the one with most all the stuff on it that I really listen to a lot. So I can fix it in iTunes for the iPod, but not for my hard copy viewing pleasure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Magnificent Goldberg Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 Well, he got a three year old to fuck up the artwork. MG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul secor Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 Don't know if Mr. Keepnews had anything to do with it, but the sound on the CD issue is better than the sound on the 2 LP issue - at least to my ears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John L Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 Often the information is not embedded in the discs and iTunes gets it instead from the CDDB database. The CDDB database relies on users to send in the data. So the likely story is as follows: One of the first people who loaded the set into iTunes got the message that CDDB database does not yet have the information. So he or she entered it manually based on what is (incorrectly) listed on the disc package. CDDB took that information and has distributed it for all subsequent inquiries.
