Comments and Reviews

fixbutte 25th Jun 2014		Hi doormanperdomo. That's fine but we have to keep an eye on the note because other label designs will appear (there are about five different). I also have to adjust my previous comment: This CD (the first issue) may have been made (manufactured) in 1982 but it was not sold then because no CD players were available, see wordnwot's plausible comment on ABBA's The Visitors.
doormanperdomo 25th Jun 2014		Thanks fixbutte - I have put a line in the notes to that effect
nboldock 24th Jun 2014		Great; then it appears all is in order. :-)
fixbutte 24th Jun 2014		Barcodes and packages are identical here for both discs displayed, and even for the first CD issue with blue swirl logo and blue text on the disc.
nboldock 24th Jun 2014		The Making Movies pressings have different bar codes. Don't know if these here do?
doormanperdomo 24th Jun 2014		For Making Movies, the red and blue disc versions are listed separately.
nicoldo64 21st Jun 2014		Add CD a second press blue swirl 18 Apr 1984.
fixbutte 2nd May 2014		Different from the copyright and producing declaration, this CD was definitely not made in 1982 (as said before, there were no CDs available outside of Japan in 1982). It was apparently first issued early to mid 1983 with this catalogue number and barcode, but with another design of the disc, as the first Vertigo CDs all had a blue swirl logo, and the earliest, very collectible version also had a blue text. See Vertigo Blue Swirl question for more.
