GEMSMFAN 9th Aug 2015		CD Album Céline Dion - Les Premières Années (1995)	I disagree, this clearly looks like a French release.. the disc label is Versailles AND look at the French language printing encircling the outer rim of the disc... the Epic logo could be a secondary label with the EPC prefix number. I don't think it was released in the UK, but rather it may have been available there, like other imports. Versailles label should prevail as well as the VER 488104 2 catalog number. This is a reissue (of course with less tracks) of the release I submitted. It definitely isn't UK, Europe maybe.
GEMSMFAN 9th Aug 2015		CD Album Céline Dion - Celine Dion (1998)	Unknown Country... I would consider this a "Bootleg"
GEMSMFAN 9th Aug 2015		CD Album Alanis - Alanis (1991)	[YouTube Video] from the Canadian "MuchMusic" channel ..and yes that's Matt LeBlanc, who was Joey Tribbiani on Friends.
GEMSMFAN 9th Aug 2015		CD Album Alanis - Now Is The Time (1992)	Alanis Morissette's 2nd album, only using her first name, like on her self-titled debut. She signed a year later with Sire-distributed, Maverick, also transforming to alterantive rock.

GEMSMFAN 3rd Aug 2015		CD Album The Statler Brothers - The Best Of The Statler Brothers (1987)	disc pressed in West Germany, for U.S. market. this copy has the "Special Price" outer fold
GEMSMFAN 2nd Aug 2015		CD Album Various Artists - The Sound Of Music: Original Soundtrack Recording (1995)	I added the 45th Anniversary edition... it is worth noting that while Christopher Plummer acted in The Sound of Music, it is not his vocals, but rather Bill Lee, who sang his parts.
GEMSMFAN 2nd Aug 2015		CD Album Various Artists - The Sound Of Music: Original Soundtrack (2010)	45th Anniversary Edition
GEMSMFAN 28th Jul 2015		CD Album The Beach Boys - Pet Sounds (1990)	who is changing info, based on the later images added... greg78s? I submitted this as a U.S. release and my back inlay and disc label look different. If anything, make this "International", (as was done on The Beatles Parlophone/Capitol/Apple releases), but not Europe based on plocky45's 3 images.
GEMSMFAN 26th Jul 2015		CD Album Connie Stevens - The Complete Warner Bros. Singles (2011)	added Released date from RG website the proper catalog number is RGM-0006 (on spine).. RGM = Real Gone Music the other number, on the CD is for the secondary label (Rhino Custom Products), smaller logo.. the OPCD prefix was always used for Warner's special products, sometimes TV advertised CD's [Mod:changes made, also adjusted barcodes with floating numbers]
GEMSMFAN 26th Jul 2015		CD Album Shelby Flint - The Complete Valiant Singles (2011)	added Released date from RG website the proper catalog number is RGM-0008 (on spine)..

GEMSMFAN 25th Jul 2015		CD Album Sheena Easton - Greatest Hits (1995)	this CD probably came with an wrapround jewel case obi... bought it used, so it was lost.

GEMSMFAN 21st Jun 2015		CD Album Buddy Holly - From The Original Master Tapes (1985)	DIDX-203 is not an alternate catalog number... it is a mastering code when discs were pressed by DADC or CBS/Sony in Japan. read this
GEMSMFAN 21st Jun 2015		CD Album Joe Walsh - The Best Of Joe Walsh (1986)	disc pressed in Japan by JVC.
GEMSMFAN 21st Jun 2015		CD Album Jackson Browne - Lawyers In Love (1984)	I added another Target label disc image... mine just has "Made in West Germany", no "by PolyGram"
GEMSMFAN 15th Jun 2015		CD Album The Everly Brothers - EB 84 (1984)	to vidman45: The submission is a U.S. release... the disc was pressed in West Germany, but look at your jewel case most notably the back inlay (back of case)... if that has a U.S. address or anything printed as U.S... this is U.S., regardless of the disc info.. early discs were VERY often pressed in Germany or Japan. In 1984 U.S. pressed CD's were rare, especially for PolyGram Group labels.
GEMSMFAN 13th Jun 2015		CD Album Foreigner - Records (1983)	copies were pressed by JVC in Japan and by PolyGram in West Germany (Target design) .
GEMSMFAN 13th Jun 2015		CD Album Carpenters - The Singles 1969-1973 (1991)	This was the Columbia House release (note "CRC" on back inlay) and the bar code while in that place is invalid. Columbia House discs weren't sold new in stores the A&M bar code was 075021360129.

GEMSMFAN 5th Jun 2015		CD Album Céline Dion - Let's Talk About Love (1997)	those aren't Sony Canada markings... copyrights are to Sony Music Entertainment (Canada) Inc. and that is confusing you. Note that info follows the (C) or (P) and year. That is on all of her CD's. Canadian CBS Group Labels catalog numbers don't use 6-digits followed by a 2. That is Europe. The Canadian disc number resembles the U.S. number in most cases. Check out the Canadian pages for releases from Columbia or CBS and Epic... you'll see what I mean... there are NO releases using the number sequence. Then check out the Labels on the Europe and UK pages and you'll see what you submitted more than likely belongs there.
GEMSMFAN 5th Jun 2015		CD Album Pink Floyd - Animals (1986)	DIDP 20206 is not an alternate catalog number.. it was a mastering code issued to this CD by manufacturer, DADC. DIDP numbers were printed under catalog numbers of discs that quite often had been pressed outside the USA. (most likely by CSR=CBS/Sony Records, Tokyo, Japan). (Digital IDentification Popular). NOTE: the DIDP number is the matrix number (check out CD center ring)
GEMSMFAN 3rd Jun 2015		CD Album Gloria Estefan - Oye Mi Canto: Los Éxitos (2006)	those images are so orange, overly processed
GEMSMFAN 30th May 2015		CD Album Agnetha Fältskog - Eyes Of A Woman (1992)	using the original catalog number of the Polydor "ring" release, and jewel case layout. note typo "Eyes Of A Women" wasn't corrected on back inlay spine.
GEMSMFAN 25th May 2015		CD Album Various Artists - Christmas With The Kranks: Music From The Motion Picture (2004)	Track 10, The Butties' version of "Joy to the World" is done Beatlesque with very noticable hints (guitar riffs, harmonica) of "Please Please Me"
