musicmasters 27th Jul 2019		CD Album Ultravox - Vienna	I reckon my copy is even earlier - UK issued with same cat. no. - no bar code and says "Made In West Germany by PDO" ... possibly the first issue on cd? - I believe it dates to around 1985?
musicmasters 20th Dec 2018		CD Album Various Artists - The Beat Goes On (1998)	bought this great box set in 1999 - it's taken me 19 years to find it again .... now finally ripped to mp3s on my pc - of course when I first had it, mp3 files were still a new thing and hard drives were small wonder how well this would sell now with one of the cover stars ....
musicmasters 13th Nov 2014		CD Album U2 - How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb (2004)	Official release date was 22nd November 2004, although my copy was purchased on 11th November 2004 Two stickers on the cd case - one states "Includes the hit single 'Vertigo' CIDU 214/986782-8" The other is a holographic silver sticker stating "Special Edition". The cd tray is an extremely glossy black plastic - maybe this is the "Special Edition" to which they refer? In the centre next to the cat. no. the words "Miss You Sugar" are stamped - similar to a run out groove message on a record - I've not seen this on any other cds.
musicmasters 20th Sep 2014		CD Album Freddie Mercury - Mr. Bad Guy (1985)	my copy initially appears identical, however on close inspection of the CD, it only has the numbers "342" in the silver part of the disc - this indicates to me that mine is a bootleg. I've had it for over 20 years, and only paid about £8 at the time, so I suspected as much. Real copies, like the one in the picture, have the catalogue number in the silver of the disc around the centre hole. Be aware there are quite a few bootlegs out there - however the quality of the disc is as good as a real one, as are the paper inserts - well they are on mine. There's a 'new' Queen album out soon which features an alternate version of the track "There Must Be More To Life Than This" - except that version features Michael Jackson. It also has a Queen version of the Freddie solo single "Love Kills".
musicmasters 22nd Apr 2014		CD Album Bruce Woolley And The Camera Club - Bruce Woolley And The Camera Club (2009)	cd album is still available here - http://www.cherryred.co.uk/shopexd.asp?id=927
