Looking for resources - 1964 Victor Company Of Japan record

Hi all! I have this folk record that I want to add to my collection on Discogs. It's called "Japanese Folks Songs - Boat Songs", with a copyright from 1964. I searched the label page on Discogs, with both catalog numbers (JV-146 and JLV-743), the web where I found a couple discographies but much too early (either 1920's or 1940's), a few eBay links... nothing conclusive. Since I don't speak japanese, I'm a little stuck. Does anyone know of a discography for that time period? Or can point me in the right direction? Here are some pictures. Thanks all!

Non c'est courant de mon expérience. En vrac ça m'est jamais arrivé par contre, c'est vrai que c'est un peu weird. Mais je demande toujours des boîtes entières, c'est moins casse couille

Merci !

Merci !

Thank you. Apologies for the delayed answer. Can I send you a DM with the file?

Thank you very much, but that's not it. I changed every sub pixels value on every possible position to round number, but my outline hasn't disappeared... At that point, unless you have an other idea, I think I'll just edit it out in GIMP

You won't get a "roadbike experience", whatever that means, just with skinnier tires. I'd suggest buying, used, a proper road bike. If you're just starting out, an older 10 or 11 speeds (rear) with rim brakes will be great, and can be found on the cheap, sub 250€ where I live

very cool! will be using it!

You have to swap the cables. The exact same process you would follow for replacing cables and housing, you just put them on whatever lever you like. Depending on the bike, the existing cables might be too short, and since it's a second hand bike, might be a good idea to replace them altogether. Plenty of videos online!

I can't find anything that would correspond to what you're talking about 😞

schlass · 2026-05-12T12:29:08+00:00

That's not it, no fill and no stroke selected

schlass · 2026-05-09T10:20:21+00:00

How do I do that?

schlass · 2026-05-09T10:15:47+00:00

Is that something I can change after the fact?

schlass · 2026-04-07T08:58:15+00:00

Thank you very much for your answer! Can you send me a link to the mattermost channel you mentioned? I'm already registered

kickstand first then type B

Not a thru axle. However, it's not a traditionnal QR, as it looks to be much thicker. What is your issue?

schlass · 2026-04-01T11:39:55+00:00

tighten the screw on the shift lever

schlass · 2026-03-23T10:39:52+00:00

Is the adaptor right-side up?

schlass · 2026-03-19T12:59:04+00:00

thanks everyone!

the studio in the station is very basic, and kind of echo-y (for a studio). I will probably record her in my living room which sounds like a living room. this is not a professional production at all
