Helen Willemse 12th Jan 2023		CD Album Donna Summer - Live And More (1990)	That is why I dumped this version and got the 2012 remaster which is as the 2LP was, complete.
Helen Willemse 11th Jan 2023		CD Album Donna Summer - Walk Away (Collector's Edition	I remember buying this one in 1987 together with All Systems Go. My 2 very first compact Discs. It is safe to put this one in 1987 I guess.. Unfortunately, I lost the Walk Away somewhere in one of the divorces and they weren't even fans LOL!
Helen Willemse 11th Jan 2023		CD Album Donna Summer - Lady Of The Night (1999)	Back + disc added. Original LP had 10 songs, Full of emptiness was left off.
Helen Willemse 11th Jan 2023		CD Album Donna Summer - Les Inoubliables (1998)	Repress 9978658 LOL!
Helen Willemse 11th Jan 2023		CD Album The Sugarhill Gang - The Best Of (1995)	Liebrand is misspelled on the cover as Leibrand.
Helen Willemse 6th Jan 2023		CD Album Snoop Dogg - Dead Man Walkin (2001)	https://rateyourmusic.com/release/album/snoop-dogg/dead-man-walkin/ Even though the cover says "Snoop Dogg" the recordings were made under the name Snoop Doggy Dogg.
Helen Willemse 4th Jan 2023		CD Album Sheila E. - Sheila E. In The Glamorous Life (1985)	The Starr * Company = Prince and yes, I heard that rumor too :-) He composed most of the music, that is pretty obvious LOL!

Helen Willemse 17th Dec 2022		CD Album Alexander O'Neal - Love Makes No Sense (1993)	hmm mine has Tabu on it only, missing the A&M + AM/PM logo's. Barcode and Cat. are the same. On rim: Made in Germany Interesting! Should I add scans as variation?
Helen Willemse 17th Dec 2022		CD Album Alexander O'Neal - All True Man (1991)	covers + disc added
Helen Willemse 16th Dec 2022		CD Album Nuttin' NYCe - Down 4 Whateva... (1995)	Why is this group spelled different? NYCe and Nyce... Isn't it easier to keep the spelling on the cover instead of 2 different ways? Everywhere you check on the net it's "Nyce" one cap only.
Helen Willemse 14th Dec 2022		CD Album Naughty By Nature - 19 Naughty III (2003)	Reissue
Helen Willemse 4th Dec 2022		CD Album Brian McKnight - Evolution Of A Man (2009)	See backcover for original typing... for some reason website does autocaps.
Helen Willemse 2nd Dec 2022		CD Album Bob Marley And The Wailers - Exodus [Deluxe Edition] (2002)	Right... I was under the impression that the EU was Europe LOL! But I see now that Europe is well you know and EU is a club that likes to meddle (or so I am told). I am not blond but I just don't into these things a lot... ;-) Thanks for your reply, Phil as always you teach me a bit more here and there :-) Sorry England, dear neighbours!
Helen Willemse 2nd Dec 2022		CD Album Bob Marley And The Wailers - Exodus [Deluxe Edition] (2002)	this is a UK and EU release at the time, the UK was still part of Europe.
Helen Willemse 1st Dec 2022		CD Album Bob Marley And The Wailers - Burnin' (Deluxe Edition) (2004)	Added variant of back.
Helen Willemse 1st Dec 2022		CD Album Mantronix - The Incredible Sound Machine (1991)	There are more of these type of things. Cover US, Disc Japan. Capitol has this more often, I have a few in my Diana Ross collection like this and I bought those directly in our shop, sealed and all. Got this one at our shop as well, sealed. First Swept Away UK release: disc Japan > cover UK. Etc. Sometimes when a country (factory) did not have enough covers, they'd get them from the US, UK, France. Japan did the same with Europe. In those days Compact Disc factories were not worldwide, sometimes they were small. So they helped each other out. Saw this a lot in the 80's and early 90's. Capitol/EMI had a factory in Uden. After that one closed down, most discs were pressed in Germany for most of the EU and UK. Later on when I moved from CD/LP dept to audio, Philips (inventor of CD) became our distribution for their equipment. He said; that is common.. we had to do it too sometimes. There was always a rush to get the music in the stores. The 100% US pressing has different text left of the barcode, checked of course :-) And what Phil says...
