GEMSMFAN 28th Mar 2014 |  | CD AlbumThe Beatles - Only The Beatles... | What would be interesting is to see if any other CDs exist in this catalog number sequence.
if there are, check the CD matrices. Quite often, the catalog numbers appear somewhere.
The CD matrix number doesn't include that here. I will say, if it is a bootleg.. and I think it is, they did a nice job. I read the link info on the tape and clearly though that was a legit release... it wasn't approved and the promotion must have been quickly eliminated, making the tape rare and collectable.

GEMSMFAN 27th Mar 2014 |  | CD AlbumThe Beatles - Ticket To Ride | how is the sound quality on one of these? At Beatles concerts the music was always drowned out by excessive screaming. I imagine anyone who attended one would know, you went home not hearing not because of the music, but because the screaming was SO loud.

GEMSMFAN 27th Mar 2014 |  | CD AlbumABBA - Super Trouper | More information on this release.
|
GEMSMFAN 27th Mar 2014 |  | CD AlbumThe Beatles - Only The Beatles... | if it's legitimate, it's amazing how a promotion could predate all the hype to release The Beatles internationally on CD. That is, their actual EMI studio recordings OR maybe the release year is incorrect.
|
GEMSMFAN 26th Mar 2014 |  | CD AlbumABBA - ABBA The Album | this was among the first CD's produced out of West Germany.
The first ones I believe had all red silk-screened Polydor labels
like this: The Visitors
|
GEMSMFAN 28th Jun 2014 |  | CD SingleSting - Englishman In New York | the correct catalog number is CC 31007, note all the other A&M 3" CD's
CSIG# (note also in matrix), is a 3" CD U.S. code number
|
GEMSMFAN 11th May 2014 |  | CD SingleJon Secada - Better Part Of Me (Target Stores Exclusive) | Included in the Target Stores edition of "Better Part Of Me" album.
|
GEMSMFAN 4th Apr 2014 |  | CD SingleNick Cave And The Bad Seeds - Get Ready For Love | "LC" is a Label Code number. Thoughout Europe, most labels and sublabels were assigned these numbers to identify a label.
|
GEMSMFAN 29th Jan 2014 |  | CD SingleGeri Halliwell - Bag It Up | If this is UK, then shouldn't the catalog number be CDEMS560?, with the all numerals EMI number being the alternate? The back of insert image, shows the UK number under the bar code.
I notice the disc only has the all numeral number, so it really should be Europe.
The UK number ought to be the alternate, since it only is printed on the J-card insert.
|
GEMSMFAN 16th Jan 2014 |  | CD SingleAce Of Base - Cruel Summer (Radio Edit) | this should be just Polydor, if it's submitted as German.
Mega logo appears because that was Ace of Base's Danish (Scandanavian) label. Barclay logo also appears (used in France). It's like seeing Polar printed on a Polydor release by ABBA.
Doubt, if anyone else will submit under your created dual Label

GEMSMFAN 12th Jan 2014 |  | CD SingleGloria Estefan - Nayib's Song (I Am Here For You) | This is clearly submitted in Discogs, as a Dutch release and you contributed to the that submission.
|
GEMSMFAN 12th Jan 2014 |  | CD SingleGloria Estefan - Always Tomorrow | Wesco83 (Aug. 8, 2013) - "If it was strictly a dutch promo none of the back info would be in English."
|
GEMSMFAN 12th Jan 2014 |  | CD SingleGloria Estefan - Nayib's Song (I Am Here For You) | your image re-edited (straightened and made larger and encircled). I can't enlarge it anymore, as your original is of somewhat poor quality already. If this was a photo... photos aren't sharp enough vs. a scanner. I tried to restore the original color which is really a deep blue using PS, but couldn't as the CD text blackens too much.
|
GEMSMFAN 8th Jan 2014 |  | CD SingleGloria Estefan - Tres Deseos (Three Wishes) (Album Version) | the catalog number clearly doesn't run in sequence. this probably was 1995, not 1996.
you submitted copyrights of 1995. your submission follows Gloria Estefan promo ESK 7508.. doesn't make sense?? All commercial releases are 1995, that are linked here??
|
GEMSMFAN 8th Jan 2014 |  | CD SingleCeline Dion - My Heart Will Go On (Love Theme From 'Titanic') | shouldn't tracks 3 and 4 (duets) have been submitted as duets "Celine Dion With Clive Griffin" and "Celine Dion With Peabo Bryson"?? They're not being credited to a opened link as duets.
Celine Dion And Peabo Bryson
Celine Dion And Clive Griffin
Mod note: changed and updated artists.

GEMSMFAN 5th Jan 2014 |  | CD SingleGloria Estefan - Wepa (Ralphi Rosario Club Remix) | this also needs tracks added

GEMSMFAN 16th Nov 2013 |  | CD SingleGloria Estefan - Oye | How do you know this was to be a release? I'm curious as to where you gather this information?
|
GEMSMFAN 13th Nov 2013 |  | CD SingleGloria Estefan - Wrapped (Album Version) | I'm curious how you would know the tracks that were on an unreleased single?
|
GEMSMFAN 6th Sep 2013 |  | CD SingleCeline Dion And Clive Griffin - When I Fall In Love | this is a card sleeve, quite often only a 2-tracker.
|
GEMSMFAN 20th Aug 2013 |  | CD SingleMadness - Lovestruck | this isn't a CD Video.. just a CD single including an enhanced video portion.
Enhanced CD's won't play in a DVD player, that is the enhanced portion, only the audio will. Enhanced portion requires a computer drive as it is a CD-ROM.
|
GEMSMFAN 18th Aug 2013 |  | CD SingleShakespears Sister - Goodbye Cruel World | Note the stickers... front was a price sticker, back a number sticker. It used to really annoy me, how shops would sticker merchandise and those stickers were in many cases not removable without ruining the packaging because they had a heavy glue to prevent price switching.
the back numbered sticker, was as a result of many shops opting for the "Lift" system...
CD racking which would only hold empty cases, sleeves and the discs were stored in cabinets behind the sales counter. You'd bring the packaging w/number to the counter and they would
match it up with the disc on a holder with the corresponding number. This also meant every disc was being handled by the shop personnel, with some very careless at fingerprinting discs!

GEMSMFAN 9th Aug 2013 |  | CD SingleGloria Estefan - Oye (Radio Edit) | Wesco83: very nice alternate "Oye" cover ala "Heaven's What I Feel". I haven't seen this available anywhere.

GEMSMFAN 6th Aug 2013 |  | CD SingleGloria Estefan And Miami Sound Machine - Rhythm Is Gonna Get You (7" Version) | harley: you are correct, it is Dutch.. In the UK, the Epic promo had XPCD 106, as a catalog number.
|
GEMSMFAN 6th Aug 2013 |  | CD SingleGloria Estefan And Miami Sound Machine - Rhythm Is Gonna Get You (Radio Mix) | CDR Promo, not Promo... Wesco83: scanning tip: place your CD in a poly sleeve (a slightly blurry one), to get rid of all or most of the reflection of a mirrored CD vs. the bright scanner lamp :)
|
GEMSMFAN 5th Aug 2013 |  | CD SingleGloria Estefan - Right Away (Radio Version) | a CDR promo, not Promo only. CDR promos have the blueish tint on playing side, like the blank discs you can purchase in computer stores.
