Annotation

The cover at discogs is missing the 2 FOR 1 FREE BONUS SAMPLER notation. It isn't a sticker on the jewel box or on the paper cover, it is printed right on.

The bonus sampler is called CONDUCTOR'S CHOICE, and has a catalog number 60698-2-RCDJ which at the moment does not appear on MB but is in discogs at https://www.discogs.com/release/19696132-Leonard-Slatkin-Saint-Louis-Symphony-Orchestra-Conductors-Choice

The notation at discogs says "Limited release, bonus sampler, part of two-box set with Copland Symphony No. 3 & Music for a Great City."

But it was also released on its own as a promo -- you can find them on eBay, for example: https://www.ebay.com/itm/11561185134

and I've seen it with and without a "promotional purposes only" notation in the lowed left -- I don't think it's on this one.

I'm not QUITE sure how to deal with this in MB. I have it as two mediums for the moment. Advice solicited.
