Label Blanc Records discography

Blanc Records is Keith LeBlanc's label mainly, but not exclusively, for the release of his own 'musical' material (as opposed to his sample albums). The list below contains all known items that have been assigned or nominally allocated a Blanc catalogue number and is ordered by nominal number. Gaps in the catalogue numbering system may be due to Keith's sample CDs released through AMG also being allocated nominal Blanc catalogue numbers, but as this is not confirmed they have not been included.

Jump to:
1: 'Album' series 2: Singles 3: Miscellaneous Items

In common with the other label discographies, tracks given a [Rhythm xxx] notation link to the corresponding rhythm in the Rhythm Directory but the Rhythm Directory only links back to it here if it doesn't appear in any of the non-label orientated discographies. If the item also appears in a non-label discography then the Rhythm Directory links to the track in its listing there preferentially.
