Mike's Records

Welcome to my site!

This website lists all my collections, including BBC Records (British Broadcasting Corporation) and other television themes, BBC Transcription Discs and BBC Radioplay Music, Doctor Who, BBC Radiophonic Workshop and BBC Sound Effects as well as other more 'mainstream' artists like The Cure and The Stranglers.

I use the site to check that I am not buying something I already have, unless the one for sale is of better quality! Please note that none of the items listed on this site are for sale at this time, however, there are some items I am actively buying. If you have any missing BBC or Doctor Who items, then please make contact with a reasonable asking value.

This site probably has the most complete discography of BBC Records on the internet!

BBC Records, people ask ...

	Was the price you paid for a BBC Record based on the catalogue number?
	Did early BBC Albums have different catalogue numbers for each side and did others seem to follow odd orders?
	Did original BBC Transcription Discs and BBC Radioplay Music discs have a very small print run?
	Did the BBC label have the widest selection of subjects of any label?
	How many unique standard releases are there on the BBC label that I catalogue?
	How many BBC Records label designs over the years have there been?
	Do I have more tracks written by members of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop than any other for BBC releases?
	Has BBC Records had success in the UK music charts?
	What was the first standard official BBC Records release?
	Which format did the BBC release the most items?
