[78-L] Saturn(e)

[Michael Biel]

  I  am glad to be providing Han with some info this time!!

The best source of info and pictures of these labels I've found is the 
two volumes of The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Picture Discs by Andre 
and Valerie Decerf which I got via Kurt Nauck.  I am not sure how close 
they are to having 100% of them illustrated, but it probably is very 
close.  The pictures are all large and sharp, and the titling and 
numbering details are easy to read.  There is also a discography of 
sorts at the end of each volume.  Saturn(e) is mainly in Vol 1, and Kurt 
might be sold out of it, but some updates are also in Vol 2 which is 
where EGX 105 is.   It is funny how all of these white musicians on 
these three records (and others) are illustrated with paintings of black 
musicians except when there are photos of the actual musicians.

showing Blacks and the other with a photo of Humphrey.)
