I have a copy of the album Joe Jackson - Look Sharp! 10" of which the cataloguenumber has been re-stickered from SP-3666 to SP6017.
This is the only difference from the original SP-3666.
Should this be a new entry or shall I just add the image of this re-stickered record with the old entry?
In the early 80's it was common for A&M to re-sticker their old stock with a new cataloguenumber. And only when the old stock was sold out, new records would be produced with this new number.
Probably A&M never reprinted this SP6017 record.
I say new listing. Regardless of how it was presented on the label, the record has a new cat number. Always, a different cat number means a different entry.
But why were the 2 seperate entries of a Canadian release of Joe Jackson - Big World combined to 1 release by the moderators?
They even had the cataloguenumbers printed on the labels and back cover.
Looks like a borderline case. The original cat number is on the second press as well, but there's an additional one. It maybe hasn't changed, so much as been added to.
