Reply: Hi John. Yup, an error. I have removed the entry. As you point out, it is already correctly entered under Longman. There was some interaction at the time between Longman and Johnson but I cannot claim that as the source of my error. If you have ABC files of any of these collections please feel free to add links to them. Regards, Chris.

Hey, I just noticed another anomaly in the list. I noticed the entry for Johnson's 24 Country Dances for the year 1770, went to check it out -- and nowhere the the name Johnson seem to appear in it. The file name is http://imslp.org/wiki/File:PMLP90894-Longman_24_dances_1770.pdf, and the title page says "Printed for LONGMAN & Co. ...". I transcribed this collection back in 2010, but didn't record where I found it. Maybe I should add this URL to the files now.

Anyway, was Johnson somehow associated with this publication? I see that there is an entry under Longman. Maybe Johnson published a different booklet, and his entry just points to the wrong URL?
