Critical praise for John Bolig's
Victor Red Seal Discography

"A carefully prepared work... The true enthusiast cannot manage without all the resources mentioned here."                                                                              — ARSC Journal

"What distinguishes this discography is that the information originates entirely from original sources... It's simply a 'must-have' reference for the collector, discographer, and institutional librarian. John Bolig continues to raise the bar, setting new standards in discographical work."                                                                                      — The Record Collector (UK)
