BUY WITH CONFIDENCE - If you don't like the item, just return it in the way you received it and we will gladly return the purchase price.The Schwann Catalog (previously Schwann Long Playing Record Catalog or later Schwann Record And Tape Guide) was a catalog of recordings started by William Schwann in 1949. The first edition was hand-typed and 26 pages long, and it listed 674 long-playing records (see LP record). By the late 1970s, over 150,000 record albums had been listed in Schwann. The company was honored by the record industry both at the 25th anniversary (1974) and 35th anniversary (1984).The Schwann Catalog changed hands several times, sold in 1976, then again in the late 1980s to Stereophile, then to Valley Media in the 1990s. In 2002, the company was purchased at a bankruptcy auction by Alliance Entertainment Corporation.From the beginning the catalog had sections for jazz and Broadway shows, but at first Schwann did not claim any degree of completeness in areas other than classical. There were also the Artists Issue (classical listing by artist) and Basic Record Library (a list of 750 classical records). It could be used for research -- where else could you find a convenient list of all Beethoven's piano sonatas with their keys, opus numbers and dates of original publication, as well as a list of all the available recordings? -- and soon enough it became the Bible of popular music as well. It became the monthly Schwann Compact Disc Catalog in May '86, and by '92 had become two quarterlies: Schwann Opus for classical and Spectrum for popular, jazz, religious, spoken word, international and the rest; each book had feature articles in the front and provided more info than ever, often including recording dates and personnel on jazz CDs. Spectrum changed to a larger page size in 1995 and was still 500 pages of small print.
