THE UK POLYDOR ISSUED RED ATLANTIC 2091 SERIES THE ORIGINAL LISTING OF POLYDOR RECORDS LTD CATALOGUE OF THE UK RED ATLANTIC 2091 SERIES WAS INITIALLY COMPILED OVER 20 YEARS AGO WITH THE HELP AND RESEARCH FROM MANY KNOWLEDGEABLE SOURCES AT THE TIME. THAT LISTING HAS BEEN FURTHER ADDED TO AND CORRECTED, WHERE NECESSARY, WITH THE ADVANTAGE OF AN ACTUAL COLLECTION OF ALMOST EVERY SINGLE RECORD ISSUED. IT IS THAT COLLECTION THAT IS NOW UP FOR AUCTION. THAT ORIGINAL LISTING SHOWS A TOTAL OF 170 CATALOGUE NUMBERS (2091-001 TO 2091-170). HOWEVER THERE ARE MANY GAPS IN THE ACTUAL ISSUE OF SINGLES RELEASED. ONLY 131 OF THE 170 CATALOGUE NUMBERS IS ACTUALLY DETAILED TO AN ARTIST & TITLE OF RELEASE. THIS CAN ONLY BE ATRIBUTED TO BOTH POOR CATALOGUE LISTING MANAGEMENT AT THE TIME AND PERHAPS AN OVERLY AMBITIOUS PLAN OF FUTURE RELEASES OF THE SERIES. THERE ARE A FEW INDIVIDUAL LISTINGS THAT HAVE NOT BEEN FOUND BY THIS COMPILER, DESPITE HAVING COMMENCED THIS COLLECTION IN THE EARLY 70s. THE POSSIBLE REASON FOR THIS IS, THAT THE LISTING WAS SCHEDULED FOR RELEASE , BUT FOR EITHER PRODUCTION OR SOME OTHER ISSUES WAS NOT ACTUALLY RELEASED. QUITE WHY POLYDOR INCLUDED ATCO LABELED SINGLES WITHIN THE RED ATLANTIC 2091 SERIES IS NOT KNOWN. PROMO SINGLES ON BOTH THE RED ATLANTIC AND ATCO 2091 SERIES, UNLIKE MANY OTHER RECORD LABELS, DO NOT DIFFER FROM STANDARD RELEASES. THEY ARE SIGNIFIED BY A SIMPLE DATE STAMP, OF THE DATE OF ACTUAL RELEASE, ON THE STANDARD PRESSINGS LABEL.
