[ Yes, I double-checked it later, too. It seems that the Apollo full-length
releases follow a pattern like this:
AMB 39 [ R & S Release Ordinal Number ]
Otherwise, I seem to be correct. At least I do not seem to have any
overlapping catalog numbers on my database. There are some interesting
exceptions, like Sun Electric's Kitchen, which has a catalogue identifier
of RS933. I suppose they just did not want to put RS93033 on it, but
abbreviated it. This is, of course, only a supposition :-) ]
