GEMSMFAN 18th May 2016		CD Album Joe Jackson - Night And Day (1983)	DIDX-18 is not part of the catalog number
GEMSMFAN 8th May 2016		CD Album INXS - Listen Like Thieves (1985)	catalog number on this release is 7 81277 2
GEMSMFAN 7th May 2016		CD Album Linda Ronstadt And The Nelson Riddle Orchestra - What's New (1983)	looks like this was pressed by Mitsubishi most Japan pressed discs from WB labels, for the U.S. were pressed by Sanyo
GEMSMFAN 7th May 2016		CD Album Foreigner - Agent Provocateur (1984)	Columbia House club release
GEMSMFAN 23rd Apr 2016		CD Album Céline Dion - The Colour Of My Love (1994)	this should have 15 tracks. "I Remember L.A." is track 11 (missing)... all tracks listed after this move up with "The Colour Of My Love" being track 15 removed / 01-474743-10, this not an alternate number, but rather a variation (the CD matrix printed). Check CD ring, as this number should be etched there.
GEMSMFAN 18th Apr 2016		CD Album Joe Walsh - Songs For A Dying Planet (1998)	correct label is "Sony Music Special Products"
GEMSMFAN 12th Apr 2016		CD Album Johnny Cash - The Essential Johnny Cash (2002)	Columbia Legacy should be Columbia / Legacy, look at the spines on the back inlay
GEMSMFAN 30th Mar 2016		CD Album Canned Heat - In Concert (1995)	I think "International" would be a better Country. Note that the back inlay mentions, not only Germany, but the Netherlands and the U.S.A.
GEMSMFAN 23rd Mar 2016		CD Album Tangerine Dream - Electronic Meditation (1999)	this is either Europe, or Country: UK. The disc was pressed in the USA, but note the label code (capsule)
GEMSMFAN 20th Mar 2016		CD Album Dan Hill - Dan Hill (1987)	I would've left "Duet" off on Track 03, that way another release with the same duet is linked with this
GEMSMFAN 20th Mar 2016		CD Album Maria Muldaur - Maria Muldaur (1993)	jewel case with white CD tray
GEMSMFAN 20th Mar 2016		CD Album Cream - Strange Brew (1983)	curious how this winds up being French?, why wouldn't it be Europe? it was pressed in West Germany and the back inlay has the UK printed. There is no French printing anywhere. This more than likely was sold all over Europe
GEMSMFAN 20th Mar 2016		CD Album Cream - Strange Brew (1983)	Club issue
GEMSMFAN 20th Mar 2016		CD Album Gloria Estefan And Miami Sound Machine - Let It Loose (1987)	the Canadian number is WEK 40769.
GEMSMFAN 13th Mar 2016		CD Album Madonna - True Blue (1986)	[YouTube Video] Danny Aiello as "Dad"
GEMSMFAN 13th Mar 2016		CD Album Madonna - True Blue (2001)	[YouTube Video]
GEMSMFAN 5th Mar 2016		CD Album Guns N' Roses - Appetite For Destruction (1987)	BMG Music Club issue
GEMSMFAN 2nd Mar 2016		CD Album Liberace - The Best Of Liberace (1987)	BMG Music Club issue it's amazing how many music club issues turn up in Used CD bins.
GEMSMFAN 29th Feb 2016		CD Album The Beatles - Please Please Me (1987)	it's funny.. this clearly states U.S. in image 322682 (jewel case back) the disc was pressed in Japan, but it's not a Japanese release... Japanese releases were on Toshiba-EMI with TOCP prefix (as stated by bobzyeuncle)
GEMSMFAN 29th Feb 2016		CD Album Linda Ronstadt - Heart Like A Wheel (1986)	BMG Music Club issue pressed by Sonopress
GEMSMFAN 27th Feb 2016		CD Album Greg Lake Featuring Gary Moore - King Biscuit Flower Hour Presents (1995)	How about "International" as Country, since several Countries are printed on back?
GEMSMFAN 21st Feb 2016		CD Album ABBA - The Visitors (1984)	this has already been submitted as "Sweden".. Polar was the Scandanavian label... Polydor was the European release... ALL early discs (Polar and Polydor) were pressed in West Germany by PDO (PolyGram) and all of them have GEMA printed on them. You're confused for that reason. this was pressed for sale in Scandanavia. You may have purchased it in the UK, but it was as an import. Mod Edit: Agreed, German entry removed. scans amalgamated into Swedish entry.
GEMSMFAN 20th Feb 2016		CD Album George Clinton And The P-Funk Allstars - T.A.P.O.A.F.O.M. (1996)	duplicate of 550 Music submission
GEMSMFAN 12th Feb 2016		CD Album Britney Spears - ...Baby One More Time	the back inlay has enhanced logos... do the enhanced features work in a computer? it defintely looks like it's unofficial, but other than the disc, it's a counterfeit... bootlegs I believe are more about collectible/unreleased material, like a live concert recording or unreleased studio mixes or tracks and the one who produces such an item, titles it with an unused name, similar to your disc (mistakes, in most cases poor printing).
GEMSMFAN 31st Jan 2016		CD Album Scandal Featuring Patty Smyth - Warrior (1984)	released in a cardboard longbox this has an original jewel case (the earliest CD's were packaged in these), smooth top and bottom sides (most jewel cases have ridged sides).
GEMSMFAN 31st Jan 2016		CD Album ABBA - The Albums (2008)	What a waste of money. ABBA's music has been compilationed over and over. This set was just a way of making more money! Only the completist would want this OR someone who wanted to finally have all ABBA albums and didn't buy them individually. Everything here has been released many, many times including the bonus album where all tracks were bonus tracks in the year they were recorded and released originally as B-sides to 45's. "The Complete Recording Sessions" (similar to this) in my opinion, is a better box set and it is only for one reason... it includes DVD's (mostly available content), but offers a television concert not available anywhere else, and unfortunately not complete, as SVT lost some video footage, that originally was shown.
GEMSMFAN 31st Jan 2016		CD Album Teddy Pendergrass - TP (1987)	I think Stephanie Mills is actually a "Featuring" artist on both Track 2 and 6.
GEMSMFAN 17th Jan 2016		CD Album Joe Morello - Morello Standard Time (1994)	Dave Brubeck's drummer
GEMSMFAN 9th Jan 2016		CD Album Various Artists - The Soul Train Christmas Starfest Album (1997)	U.S. release has catalog number: EK 68679
GEMSMFAN 9th Jan 2016		CD Album Crosby, Stills And Nash - Allies (1985)	this was pressed in West Germany by PolyGram, but for the U.S. market it has a U.S. Atlantic catalog number
