Helen Willemse 14th Jun 2022		PhilMH, been a Diana/Supremes collector for a long time.... I am using a program called Music Collector for years, you can put in a whole lot of info into it. Had this listed as 1986 because of Discogs, until today... for some reason I only just noticed the different cat. nr. today... bought the CD somewhere in the 80's... Every time a DR CD was released I bought it, some I ditched and bought newer versions of because they sounded better. Back in the day some CD's sounded like they were recorded in a can LOL! A nightmare is the right word for those cat. nrs.. man, since I rediscovered this site I am digging into the CD's and LP's again I am seeing things that drive me crazy hahaha! On the bright side, it is a good distraction from life right now. Gives the brain something else to worry about. Do you remember when in about one year time Polygram left and Universal stepped in and the entire back catalogue was rereleased...again (we need a tired smiley here). I had just bought The Boss remaster and a few months later it was released AGAIN... this time with bonus tracks. For a moment I stopped buying reissues, too much of the same. Untill the expanded stuff came yaaay! Anyway, thanks for your explanation :-)



PhilMH 14th Jun 2022		Hi Helen, the first CD release of this album was in April 1985 as MCD06133MD; MCD09046MD was released in June 1987, according to the discography in Sharon Davis' 1988 book MOTOWN: THE HISTORY (and I don't know why I didn't think to check that when I previously commented in 2014!). The renumbering to MOTD-758 (numerically the same as the original LP and cassette issues) took place sometime between June 1988 (when Motown was sold to the joint venture of MCA Records and Boston Ventures, and became Motown Record Company, L.P.) and July 1989, where it appears with that catalogue number in MCA's catalogue. MCA's catalogue numbers in the 80's were a nightmare! It wasn't unusual for LP, cassette, and CD to all have completely different numbers (Motown, from 1983-1988 distributed by MCA, but not yet owned by them, had some vinyl issues in the 2800 series, cassettes in the 5000 series, and CDs in the 9000 series), but after the MCA/Boston Ventures takeover, MCA started rationalising their numbers to have all formats numerically the same; I remember seeing the The Supremes GREATEST HITS CD, which was originally in the 8000 series, renumbered to MOTD-237, matching the 1982 LP and cassette reissue, by way of a sticker on the jewel case, and this was also done for Stevie Wonder's 1970s albums and the CD versions of the 1970s ANTHOLOGIES. This is analogous to MCA's early 80s renumberings of their LP back catalogues by way of gold stamps on the front covers, and sometimes those old stamped covers would contain new pressings with the new numbers on them! EDIT: It's probable that your copy with 9046 on the cover and 758 on the disc had a sticker showing the new number 758 (and corresponding barcode) on the jewel case at some point, and it came off.



Helen Willemse 14th Jun 2022		I have a real weird one here: Cat. Nr. on cover: MCD09046MD Cat. Nr. on CD: MOTD-758 Barcode: 050109904624 Both package and disc say: Made in USA Distribution MCA. Inner ring says made by JVC Text on disc is blue Does anyone have a clue as to when this was released? I've always thought it was a 1986 release. This thing is driving me nuts LOL! I have had this album for ages.. never noticed the different cat. nr on the disc LOL!



noel181 5th Jan 2019		This Is A 1st Pressing Of The Album And It Was Printed In USA But CD Was Made In Japan.



noel181 24th Dec 2018		The correct bar code is 05010961332



cussincarryinon02 3rd Oct 2014		Barcode is incorrect, too, unfortunately. Anyway, we need scans here before being able to sort it out.



PhilMH 3rd Oct 2014		I think this is a lot earlier than 1993, my European issue seems to have the date July 1985 (7/85) on the back page of the booklet. The catalogue number is the giveaway, and suggests a pre-1988 issue when the company was still Motown Record Corporation. Following the sale to MCA and Boston Ventures in late 1988, the catalogue numbers were reformatted, so that this one would have become MOTD -6133, and the company name then became Motown Record Company, L.P. Motown separated from MCA in late 1991 and moved to PolyGram, and the catalogue number (and barcode) would have changed again to 3746361332.



RPFiller 3rd Oct 2014		* dialogue tracks from the film Tracks 1 - 22 are mostly short music clips. Remaining tracks are full versions of songs.
