Comments and Reviews

Lee Wrecker 7th May 2019		Added barcode but not keen on donning the armour for this one Phil. I think the fact that it has the embossed stamp on the back cover indicating it was intended for the Australian market is enough to identify this as an Australian release. Other than that Phil, I think it is only you and I on the entire site that even consider the problems of the international category these days. The last few attempts we have made to open up that discussion (here and here) have gone nowhere. Even Leonard (Mr. Everything is International at one stage) has succumbed to the the patriotic nationalism that has swept the site. The MODS don't have a unified position and the guidelines are inadequate so everyone just lists things according to their own preferences. If ever there is agreement on how to deal with this situation the mess that we have created in the meantime will take years to sort out.
PhilMH 6th May 2019		Hi Lee, I just came across this (oo-er) when having a nosey at MCA's Australian releases. Your note "Album made in USA specifically for Australia" is probably slightly misleading, as MCA's catalogue was largely available to all their overseas licensees (with certain territorial restrictions for particular labels or artists), so this same album could well have turned up in other countries with a similar "Export Only" stamp on the back cover - I have seen other MCA albums in Discogs stamped for Netherlands or West Germany, for example. I also understand (from fellow Aussie member The_Vinyl_Junkie, who told me he got this information "from the horse's mouth") that MCA's deal with Astor in Australia required Astor to release MCA's entire catalogue, and that, coupled with the large financial guarantee that Astor paid MCA and never fully recouped (not even after Neil Diamond's HOT AUGUST NIGHT went gangbusters in this country), was a large factor in Astor's eventual demise (ditto a similar monetary guarantee paid to Motown). This 1982 release would be from about the time that Astor was being absorbed into PolyGram, after a big cheese at Philips Netherlands (owner of both PolyGram and Astor) wondered aloud why they had two record companies here, and one of them in a financial hole! Anyhow, we could conceivably lobby for this to be made "International" and don our protective armour, or make another request for multiple country flags to be available, or take the path of least resistance and leave this one as it is, with any similar US copies being stamped for other countries to be entered under those countries.
