Listing observed

Amazon.com lists "PROKOFIEV Scythian Suite KHACHATURIAN Gayaneh: Scherchen/Vienna Symphony Orchestra", brand Deutsche Grammophon, ASIN B000063DSB, new from a marketplace seller and used; the page prints no barcode. MusicBrainz links this barcode's release to the same ASIN on Amazon UK (^mb). The article is out of print, so offers are likely second-hand or old stock; no price recorded

A listing is evidence that this barcode is sold there, on that date; a price is what that listing showed, not a recommended price.

Coverage & research gaps (7)

Coverage measures the evidence recorded here. It does not rate the product.

  • Identity: 3 / 3 · Name, brand and classification recorded
  • Release details: 5 / 5 · Profile fields recorded: artists, label, media, released, catalogue_number. Missing fields may require research or an applicability note.
  • tracks evidence: 15 / 15 · Recorded rows linked to source evidence; does not measure whether the list is complete
  • Context: 1 / 2 · Evidence groups assigned to a researched label, edition or analysis
  • Label photographs: 0 / 1 · Researched contexts with an assigned photograph
  • Specifications: 0 / 13 · Recorded specifications mapped to comparable property keys
  • identity · disputed: Label: Discogs files the release under Westminster with label code LC 00393, the Westminster code; MusicBrainz and the Deutsche Grammophon catalogue page name Deutsche Grammophon (LC 0173). The brand follows the Westminster imprint of the series; no cover photo was read to settle which logo signs the spine.
  • identity · unknown: Discogs lists a US club edition with the same catalogue number made for BMG Direct under licence; it carries club number D 143531 and no UPC, so it is not treated as this article.
  • identity · unknown: country_of_origin is left blank: the inlay reads "Made in the E. U."; only Discogs' company credit names Germany (Universal M & L).
  • relationships · unknown: No source names the licensee of GS1 company prefix 0028947; no gs1_prefix_owner edge is recorded.
  • markets · stale: The only retailer listing found (Amazon.com) prints no barcode; the MusicBrainz release group could not be re-read for other editions (HTTP 503 at the time).
  • schema · schema_gap: Review and assign legacy facts to coherent observations.
  • schema · schema_gap: Some specifications retain source labels without comparable property keys.
