Various Artists - Seasons Greetings From The Calgary Sun
You shouldn't have linked the listings if the MCA issue had a completely different catalogue number, which I think it did (not to mention that it's also on a different label). As this is on Universal Music, this is not a 1989 issue, as that name wasn't used in Canada until 1999; the 1989 copyright year comes from the original US issue linked below.

Carole King - Tapestry
I think this is made in Japan for Europe and the rest of the world outside of the Far East and the Americas; the catalogue number is in the style used by Sony in Europe, etc. A Japanese release would have some Japanese text somewhere, as well as the rights society JASRAC. Call it International.

Lee, I've just looked at that Discogs club edition, and it looks ok to me; Capitol appears as the label at the top of the disc, the back of the booklet, the back insert, and both spines. RCA Direct Marketing, Inc. appears correctly with company roles "manufactured for" and licensed to", neither of which affect the actual branded label of Capitol. To my knowledge, that RCA club always allocated its own catalogue numbers to their releases.

Uriah Heep - ...Very 'Eavy...Very 'Umble
Yes, quite possible/probable, but we'll probably never know for sure unless someone can turn up a release sheet, or get access to Universal Music NZ's files. All that can be said at the moment is that the Phonogram Ltd. name makes it no earlier than 9 November 1972.

I believe that the info in Discogs is reliable, as it appears to have come directly from the NZ company registry, which I have just looked at myself, and the following appears under the now-defunct company Universal Music Limited:

UNIVERSAL MUSIC LIMITED (14087) Removed

POLYGRAM RECORDS LIMITED (from 01 Nov 1978 to 24 Nov 1999)
PHONOGRAM LIMITED (from 09 Nov 1972 to 01 Nov 1978)
POLYGRAM RECORDS LIMITED (from 25 Jun 1970 to 09 Nov 1972)
PHILLIPS RECORDS (N.Z.) LIMITED (from 14 May 1963 to 25 Jun 1970)
INTERNATIONAL PHONOGRAPHIC SOCIETY N.Z LIMITED (from 11 Dec 1961 to 14 May 1963)
Last updated on 03 Nov 2013

It's possible, indeed probable, that some of those "1972" NZ issues in Discogs showing Phonogram Limited fall into one of these possible categories:
(1) Represses/reprints of albums that were originally issued by the 1970-1972 iteration of PolyGram Records Limited;
(2) the usual discographical headache of assuming that the phonographic copyright (P) year is the release year - not necessarily the case, as that (P) year is set in the country where the recording is first issued, and other countries might issue it later, and also that (P) year should not change on represses and reissues.
