Complete list of "Verve Originals"?

[Big Al]

I've Googled "Verve Originals" and nothing comes up. The Verve website doesn't list it as a series. Even Amazon's list isn't up-to-date. Does anyone know what all has been released in this series?

Nobody knows? Or cares?

There are previous threads listing the LPRs (out of which the "Originals" evolved - in yurp the package and design changed a bit earlier, LPRS > digipack-LPRS > jewel case originals > digipack originals is the way they took here - I think in the US the change to digipack took place later, and maybe you never had any jewel case versions in between?)

Best you do a search for those older threads, maybe some of the originals batches are listed there. Also look through the recently active Universal reissues thread. Some batches are listed in there. Also if the org-search won't help much, try a google domain search (hit ... ah, shucks, look below for links, doing the search right now myself).

I'd be very much interested to see the complete list (though all the smooth crap they included recently doesn't interest me the slightest bit), but I don't have time to do a lot of searching now.

Now you can do the hard work

Thanks, ubu! It sure doesn't help that the Verve website's been down for the last couple of days.
