MoreFloyd 6th Aug 2019 | | CD AlbumD-A-D - No Fuel Left For The Pilgrims | Have requested the date for this one be changed to November 1989, as all images are of the Cat# "105210-2" CD. I don't know if the sticker for Cat# "D 30175" was just an interim arrangement until new CD's and labels were made or not. Have added image of the original rear of inlay showing barcode.
The original Australian release of this Cd (Cat# 105210-2, Barcode: 9399310521024) was released November 1989 (Distributed by CBS) according to "Platterlog" issued 27/11/1989.
2nd release (Cat# D 30175, Barcode: 9399310521024) was released May 1990 after all "Liberation Records" product was transferred from "CBS" to "Festival" distribution, "Platterlog" issue dated 14/05/1990.
3rd release (Cat# D 19803, Barcode: 9399310521024) was released July 1993 (still being distributed by "Festival", but now falling into their mid-price range), "Platterlog" issue dated 19/07/1993 (See comments Here).

Mine is the same as "gregs45s" with no booklet and plain white interior.

MoreFloyd 19th Jul 2019 | | CD AlbumJane's Addiction - Nothing's Shocking | Unfortunately the perimeter text that runs from approx. 9 through to 3 o'clock on the cd image shows as a thick black line. Text reads:
"ALL RIGHTS OF THE MANUFACTURER AND OF THE OWNER OF THE RECORDED WORK RESERVED. UNAUTHORIZED COPYING, HIRING, LENDING, PUBLIC PERFORMANCE BROADCASTING OF THIS DISC PROHIBITED MANUFACTURED AND DISTRIBUTED BY WARNER MUSIC AUSTRALASIA"
I suspect this is an early 90's release, with pre-90's pressings coming from Germany for distribution in Australia.

MoreFloyd 30th Jun 2019 | | CD AlbumClannad - Legend | Hi Whassup,
Found this listed as a new release in the "03-07-1989" edition of "Platterlog". Don't know if that makes the actual release date sometime in June or July (If PhilMH is out there he might share his thoughts). Either way 1989 would be a far more likely date for this Australian release. Both LP (SPLP 1119) and Cassette (SPCK 1119) are also listed as new releases on the same date.

MoreFloyd 14th Jun 2019 | | Cassette AlbumVarious Artists - Metal Meltdown | Hi Whassup,
This one is listed in "Platterlog" as a "June, 1989" release.
See comments here.

MoreFloyd 6th Jun 2019 | | Vinyl AlbumVarious Artists - Metal Meltdown | Hi Whassup,
We were out by 2 years!
Platterlog has a listing for both LP & Cassette on the 26th June 1989.
Don't know if the 26th is the actual release date but a date of June '89 should cover it.

MoreFloyd 4th May 2019 | | CD AlbumIron Butterfly - In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida | With respect to "The_Vinyl_Junkie" I have added an image of the inside of the inlay showing "Original Masters" and a clearer cd image (though perimeter text still shows as a thick black ring). I purchased my copy in January 2001 though I suspect this is a mid to late nineties release.

MoreFloyd 2nd Apr 2019 | | Cassette AlbumJeff Beck - The Best Of Jeff Beck | Hi PhilMH / Whassup, I stumbled on the Platterlog entry for this while attempting to find something else. Platterlog entry date is 21/11/1988 making your "1988/1989" estimate spot on PhilMH.
|
MoreFloyd 29th Mar 2019 | | Cassette AlbumJimi Hendrix - Cornerstones 1967-1970 | I think this one should be made "International". I have the Australian (manufactured, printed, marketed etc...) version of this, same Cat#, Barcode, artwork and track listing. Looking through "Discogs" LP, Cass and CD entries it appears to have been released almost everywhere (UK, Finland, Greece, Brazil, Australia, India (No Barcode), Netherlands, Austria etc...) with the same respective Cat#'s & Barcodes (interchange of 1, 2 or 4) for their respective formats. If there are no objections I will request to have it changed.

MoreFloyd 28th Mar 2019 | | CD AlbumThe Head Cat - Fool's Paradise | "The Head Cat" is a Rockabilly group formed in 1999 by the late Motorhead vocalist / bass player Ian "Lemmy" Kilmster, drummer Slim Jim Phantom of the Stray Cats and guitarist Danny B. Harvey of The Rockats.
They do mostly covers of classic tracks from the 50's & 60's.
As of 2017, former Morbid Angel member David Vincent took Lemmy's place as vocalist and bassist.

MoreFloyd 5th Mar 2019 | | CD AlbumGuns N' Roses - Appetite For Destruction | My copy of this is identical to "gregs45s" which i purchased January, 2001. A look through the Australian Ebay listings show "Disctronics B" pressings with the same Cat#, Barcode, artwork, tracks etc... which would give a date pre December, 1995. Entered the Australian charts 18/09/1988.

MoreFloyd 27th Feb 2019 | | CD AlbumBryan Ferry - The Ultimate Collection | The notes for this entry state that the booklet has 16 pages which I suspect is a miscount. My copy has 12 which I have added the images for. Perhaps "philwill" could check and have the notes amended if required.

MoreFloyd 11th Feb 2019 | | Cassette AlbumThe Doors - The Best Of The Doors | Hello PhilMH, Thanks for your input. Just to clarify, LP, 60345-1 & Cass. 60345-4 were released 02 June, 1986 in Australia (according to Discogs) which matches your theory of an early June release as stated. This release, although carrying the same Cat#, is slightly different as it has the additional barcode and extra track which I think would mean a separate entry to the 1986 version above. We've narrowed it a little more at the least, 1990-2004.
|
MoreFloyd 11th Feb 2019 | | Cassette AlbumThe Doors - The Best Of The Doors | Unusual version as it contains the supposedly cd-only bonus track "Alabama Song".
The best I can come up with for a release date is 1989 (Elektra Records became Elektra Entertainment) through to January 2004 (Date I purchased it). There are no composer credits listed on this release.

MoreFloyd 4th Feb 2019 | | CD AlbumDire Straits - On Every Street | With respect to The_Vinyl_Junkie I have added a (marginally) clearer Cd image, plus Hype Sticker and alternate images of the rear of the booklet & inlay (white writing instead of red).

Cheeky Records to be added as secondary label.
Track 05 composer credits should read "Dido Armstrong, Aubry Nunn, Rollo Armstrong", (no comma between Aubry and Nunn).
