I won an eBay auction for "Jan August: Piano magic"; it's an album from Diamond Discs "with tones that sparkle" (Cat# D5).

The album cover clearly states that the three records inside are:
1. "Tea for two" b/w "A pretty girl is like a melody" (Cat# 2010)

2. "Make believe" b/w "My melancholy baby" (Cat# 2030)


3. "Ol' man river" b/w "Some of these days" (Cat# 2031)


But instead of disc 1, I received:

"My shawl" b/w "Without you" (Cat# 2032)

It seems, numerically, to belong to this album, but the problem is that all four discs have something like a series title "Piano magic" next to the spindle hole.

My questions are:
1) Was this album released in different versions, with one disc substituted in the later edition? Or, is the cover just a misprint?
2) Was "Piano magic" a catchphrase that appeared on all of Jan August's discs, or is it exclusively this album's name?
3) To what does the phrase "Rhythm Stylists" refer, appearing below Jan August's name on each disc?

Thanks for any help in resolving this.
