gregs45s SUBS 28th Apr 2015		CD made in Italy added it was with other "Printed In Holland" artwork however,so i figured it didn't qualify for it's own "Italian" entry?.Rest matches scans 311998 to 726573 inclusive (exactly).



gregs45s SUBS 21st Apr 2015		More scans added.The CD i have really is that much darker,it's not just my scanner.



PhilMH 26th Mar 2014		PM 520 (France), 070 (Italy) What do you think about it? I wasn't even sure if the French and Italian numbers qualify as cat#s. Not absolutely sure about the Italian one, but the French one is just a price code, even though it is confusingly put next to the UK catalogue number; there would be hundreds, if not thousands, with the same code, and all French record companies use them, e.g. PM XXX for Pathe Marconi EMI, CB XXX for CBS, VG XXX for Vogue, WE XXX for WEA, AE XXX for Ariola Eurodisc, and so on.



fixbutte 25th Mar 2014		That's what they say on Discogs: EMI United Kingdom Profile: Despite the name, EMI United Kingdom is a brand that appeared worldwide between roughly 1993 and 1998. It was primarily used for UK artists like Iron Maiden, Pink Floyd, Saxon. Labelcode: LC 0542 Parent Label:EMI



fixbutte 25th Mar 2014		Label blow-ups added. You may be right, but anyway, just for inspecting. The same one is on the disc surface. Re additional cat#s: I had first added "F: PM 520", "I: 070" like on the back cover, although I presumed that F stood for France and I for Italy. On leonard's request I have now deleted these two letters.



Orbiting Cat ● 25th Mar 2014		Agree about the label just being EMI. Regards cat#s, Dr Doom's advice was that we are relaxed about what gets included as a cat#, to save on arguments. If people add numbers from CDs which might not be a cat#, then it's not a problem.



fixbutte 25th Mar 2014		Actually I had thought about adding the additional cat#s as follows: CDEMD 1062 (UK), PM 520 (France), 070 (Italy) What do you think about it? I wasn't even sure if the French and Italian numbers qualify as cat#s. The label even on this European issue made in Holland is EMI United Kingdom. You nearly can't make it out either on the original CD disc and jewel case back or on the scans, but still it is there. Maybe I should upload a blow-up of the label too.



leonard ● 25th Mar 2014		Label should be just EMI, French F and Italian I aren't cat numbers



fixbutte 25th Mar 2014		Wish You Were Here had been my last Pink Floyd vinyl LP bought in 1975 or 1976 (I ignored Animals and The Wall completely although I saw The Wall film in 1982), and it was my first Pink Floyd CD again. Obviously I wanted to listen to the two parts of Shine On You Crazy Diamond consecutively at last, and I wanted to listen to the title song separately. Still I didn't buy the first UK/Europe CD version but waited until this newly remastered version with revised artwork came out in 1994. As a reminiscence, I also bought The Dark Side Of The Moon as a CD then, but I don't remember listening to that one more than once, I somehow knew it by heart. As an aside, this has been Pink Floyd's introduction to 45worlds CD Albums. Though probably still the most popular rock band after The Beatles, they only made it to [Artist ID: 2636] here.
