Isn't there some sort of EU directive that if any item (whatever it is, no necessarily music) is made in an EU member country, then the packaging has to say "Made in EU"? That notation very frequently appears on product from Ace/Kent, who I feel are most likely to be officially UK-only releases, as they don't have any continental licensees as far as I know. (The same principle applies to Ace/Kent's earlier LP issues that specifically say made in France or Germany; it's not unknown for those to be entered as the release countries at this site, and also at Discogs, which also has a guideline saying that the country of manufacture is not necessarily the country of release). Also, it's hard to imagine a release by a relatively minor artist from, say, Spain, whose CD says "Made in EU" being made available in Scandinavia! Anyway, I'll await the improvements that the good Doctor speaks of with baited breath - and I apologize for losing my rag a bit yesterday.
