A Van Morrison single that was #1 in Holland will probably end up being British although it was made in Germany...

Of the small amount of cds I've added so far, a few have had more than one cat# - a specific one for Europe, a specific one for UK, and often a specific one for either France or Germany (there are almost certainly more variations.). This does apply for the Van Morrison/Chieftans cd - there is a distinct UK# of MERCD 262CD and an "International" # of 870 387-2.

I've also just gone to add a Flaming Lips CD (part 1 of a 2 cd set of She Don't Use Jelly), and the Part 2 is already entered as being European but with the UK cat# of WO246CDX. If this uses 9362-41759-2 then it would have a correct European cat#. Or WE 739 if it had been entered as French, or indeed WO246CDX for UK. All three of these variations would be officially correct, as this would be how the item has been catalogued by the company (WEA) themselves.

I've only looked at a handful of cds so far, but it does look as if the major companies have already done the work for us of defining whether the cds they've released can be added as distinctly separate UK/French/European etc releases...
