RELEASE DATE & LIST YEAR

Release: 1965

Release: 1965Source checked

V3.6 reconciles the original release year with the reviewed Artist Essentials entry for this exact retained recording ID. Year precision is used; an album-first release is not silently replaced by a later single, reissue or annual-list year. The reviewed original recording and single evidence support 1965. Later album, chart, anthology and re-recording dates are kept separate; year precision does not claim an exact worldwide day.

The large badge identifies this listening list, not a newly issued recording. Later reissues and renewed chart popularity do not replace an original release date. How years are assigned.

Owner-supplied release annotations
Reported dates in 1965.html. Not independently established; neighboring dates can reflect album/single or regional differences.

Too Many Rivers - licensed original 1965 studio program
The original 1965 album program identifies the solo title recording. The named original single is also reviewed in the licensed anthology; year precision leaves the same-year single/album day order unspecified.

Brenda Lee - licensed original single versions
The licensed historical program labels the original single presentations, explicitly calls Dynamite the 1957 Single Version and preserves the original 1963 As Usual field. Compilation-year placeholders do not date the older recordings.
