CD Album
Neil Young - Landing On Water
the label on this should be "Geffen Goldline"

Live Music
Bjorn Again @ The Vanderbilt
held at a large dance club on Long Island (now closed as a club and currently the Racing Palace for Nassau OTB).

this was great and cameras were allowed. I went to the gas station next door and bought a cheap disposable camera with flash and took photos, most of which came out quite good being that I was near the stage.

Live Music
Bruce Springsteen And The E Street Band @ Continental Arena
Continental Airlines Arena... (shortened on the ticket)...
formerly the Brendon Byrne Arena, currently the Izod Centre

never saw Bruce 'live', but I've heard his shows are long and well worth a the price of admission.
living in NY, tix aren't that easy to get for someone's hometown that is NJ.
speaking of which.. tix have become harder to get and they're also quite expensive,
especially if you can get a ticket with a decent view.

Live Music
Billy Joel And Elton John @ Giants Stadium
this was the first tour the two piano men did and it's success led to many more 'pairing up".

CD Album
Gloria Estefan - Mi Tierra
the DIDP issue is actually the earlier one. DIDP's weren't present on later issues of CBS group labels. Some had CTDP's

21st Mar 2015
CD Album
Various Artists - Now That's What I Call British
The tag should be, "Now That's What I Call..."
This doesn't have "Music!" in it's title. There are "Country", "Christmas",...

Cassette Album
Buck Owens - Close Up
can't scan cassette shell as I replaced the cassette reels into a new shell
when actual tape snapped and I spliced it and reshelled it. the original shell
was damaged to open what was a molded, not screwed together shell.

Cassette albums were usually recorded on poor or low quality tape, to keep
costs down. When they got old, oxide would shed onto tape player heads.

CD Album
Elton John - London & New York
This has got to be highlights from the "Here and There" live album, recorded in 1974
"Here", being Royal Festival Hall, London -- "There" being Madison Square Garden, New York.

15th Mar 2015
CD Album
Quarterflash - Take Another Picture
Image 360783 was on "Geffen Goldline" which was a reissue label.

I'm uploading my original.. a Target CD, pressed in Japan, for Geffen in the U.S.

GEMSMFAN
15th Mar 2015
CD Album
Donovan - Hurdy Gurdy Man
this clearly is a U.S. release... the EK prefix was for U.S. Epic CD's.

What would make this "International", I don't know.

GEMSMFAN
15th Mar 2015
CD Album
The Gregg Allman Band - Before The Bullets Fly
shouldn't the catalog number be, 462477 2?

GEMSMFAN
15th Mar 2015
CD Album
Javier Solís - Sombras
released on LP, as Caytronics, CYS-1049.

Caytronics was the Latin CBS distributed label, before 1980 (pre-Discos CBS International)

GEMSMFAN

CD Album
Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin
BMG Direct Marketing (music club issue) with no bar code

I'm surprised how Atlantic mistakely used the "SD" prefix used on LP catalog numbers.

GEMSMFAN
13th Mar 2015
CD Album
Toni Tennille - More Than You Know
early U.S. release (target CD) which was pressed in West Germany, by PolyGram.

GEMSMFAN
12th Mar 2015
CD Album
Dion - Bronx Blues: The Columbia Recordings (1962-1965)
Correct catalog number for this is CGK 46972.

DIDP is NOT a catalog number, but a number assigned by Digital Audio Disc Corp., when this CD was manufactured (pressed). They were assigned to discs pressed outside the U.S., for sale in the U.S.
D = Digital
ID = Identification Project
P = Popular (music)

fyi: the last letter would be "C" (DIDC) for Classical CD's, in this program

GEMSMFAN
11th Mar 2015
CD Album
Eagles - The Best Of Eagles
Wondering if I should add another submission. Mine has the catalog number here (you submitted) as the bar code only. The catalog number is 960 342-2 on Asylum. The disc was pressed in Germany by Record Service GmbH, Alsdorf.

PCB5394: Does your release have a bar code on the back of the case?

Don't want to submit, if you're submission info would change (possibly being corrected) and my submission is deleted (really extra work now, for nothing, in the future).

CD Album
Nena - 99 Luftballons
this is an early U.S. CD... I recently read that the original jewel cases were smooth on the top and bottom.. no ridges. This was released in one of those.

GEMSMFAN

CD Album
Eagles - One Of These Nights
Columbia House edition
The odd catalog numbers make it easy to spot these.. also NO bar codes, although the earlier jewel cases didn't have bar codes. Many bar codes were just on the outer packaging.. ah yes, those cardboard long boxes.

GEMSMFAN
5th Mar 2015
CD Album
Dan Fogelberg - Greatest Hits
this is a Columbia House Record Club (CRC) edition... dummy bar code... club editions really didn't need bar codes. BMG/RCA club didn't have any.

GEMSMFAN

Toto - Past To Present 1977-1990
D111510 - BMG Music Club edition (no bar code)

Freddie King - Are You Ready For Freddie?

CD Album
Angelique Kidjo - Black Ivory Soul
not "International', this is a U.S. release. U.S. Columbia catalog number (prefix "CK")
European release is Columbia, 506069 2 or COL 506069 2.

GEMSMFAN
21st Feb 2015
CD Album
The Byrds - Sweetheart Of The Rodeo
curious how this is "International" this is a U.S. release on Columbia / Legacy (and a reissue of the original CD - CK 9670 on Columbia)

Europe release, Columbia: COL 486752 2 or just 486752 2
U.K. (reissue) release, Edsel: EDCD 234

It was re-released as 2 CD's Deluxe as Columbia / Legacy C2K 87189 (U.S.)
and COL 510921 2 (Europe)

GEMSMFAN
21st Feb 2015
CD Album
C + C Music Factory - Gonna Make You Sweat
curious to how this is "International"? It is a U.S. release... Canada released this also with this
number, but does 2 countries qualify as "International"?

Europe/Australia use 467814 2 or COL 467814 2, on Columbia.
