From when Music & Elsewhere became the label name in April 1992, each batch of new releases would simply be reviewed in our quarterly newszines. However, within a year of that, we'd topped 200 releases, and any new supporters coming along wouldn't know most of them existed, thus the idea came about to produce a catalogue. The first edition was published in May 1993, covering releases up to M&E 186. With regular updates being added in the newszines, that seemed to solve the problem for a while. But of course, with even the best laid men of mice with plans, there are always flaws, and by the beginning of 1995, and 334 releases into the adventure, The Catty Log had become a very expensive item to post (*in the old days, we had to put things in envelopes and jiffy bags and pay to have them personally delivered to the recipient by a postman) monster. Thus came the first cull, removing some of our titles that hadn't generated much interest (a decision I have to say I regret now, as everything we put out was of value) and producing a new leaner "Best Of Catty Log", complete with Roy Conolly's iconic cover art, recently reworked and given a new lease of life as the cover of "Decadion 2". We got 3˝ years out of that one, but come the summer of 1998, having passed the 500 mark, it was time to tidy things up again and there came "The Best Of Music & Elsewhere" catalogue. And here it is, all 36 glorious pages of it, lovingly scanned for your visual pleasure. There were only 96 more releases before M&E came to a halt in 2003, so it was the last of its kind. I hope you'll enjoy looking through it as much as I have, either via the index or the little arrows at the bottom of each page... Mick Magic |
