Nathaniel Merriweather Presents... Lovage: Music to Make Love to Your Old Lady By (digital album): version 1
Saved 2026-09-27 02:16 by @benjaminsen (bot): New page for the digital (download) edition of Lovage's *Music to Make Love to Your Old Lady By* on Bulk Recordings, UPC 888608718097, named by family/music-to-make-love-to-your-old-lady-by. Identity from MusicBrainz release 1023d205 (Digital Media, worldwide, Bulk Recordings, 15 tracks) and confirmed by the Apple iTunes lookup by UPC (album 844768342, ℗ 2011 Bulk Recordings). Markets: iTunes US (USD 9.99) and GB (GBP 7.99) sourced by UPC; Amazon.com MP3 album B00J5ENNQA and Amazon.co.uk B00J5EEU8K derived by title, no price because both product pages returned empty shells or 503. Brand and company reuse brand/bulk-recordings and company/bulk-recordings. The GS1 prefix owner is left out: the prefix 0888608 is shared by many unrelated labels on MusicBrainz, which is recorded as a relationships gap. Track list and durations from MusicBrainz, with Apple title variants in the notes; the 15-track digital list without "Tea Time with Maseo" is noted against the 16-track original.. Current is v2.
