Hi Lee. I must say I find the country of origin for cd's a bit tricky. I also had a look through Discogs listings for this release prior to adding this cd. In the end I went with "International" because of the similarity to the versions you mentioned above. I suspect the two "add on" numbers of the Canadian barcode may refer to the year of manufacture only (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barcode). As it happens I bought this cd at the start of 2001 to replace a rather worn out cassette! My gut feeling is that this cd does meet with "Dr Doom's" guidelines for an "International" listing. Having said that, I'm more than happy to see it changed to an Australian release.
Hi MoreFloyd, I'd say this is an Australian release rather than international. A quick check of images here reveals that only the Canadian release has the same cat# (exactly) and that the Canadian issue has two extra digits 97 on the barcode (so not an exact match). The UK (IMCD 179) and French (CID 9980) editions use the same cat# but only as a secondary cat# and do have the same barcode though.
So little differences would make this a uniquely Australian release unless barcodes trump cat#s but that is not usually the case. What do people think?
