Thread Name: Frequently misspelled/confused names.
Subject: RE: Frequently misspelled/confused names.
I agree about the misspelled names of Wyndham-Read. The problem is that the record companies themselves are the ones who caused all the confusion. The early records in Australia were often Wyndham-Reid so when one followed the other they continued to misspell the name. In England the Topic LP had it as Reade and the Broadside LP had it as Reed. Martyn always knew how to spell his name but it seems the people putting his records out didn't bother to check with him...
