2 album track questions

Recommended Posts

First Question: On my Great White cd Rock Champions, it has track 13 labeled as "Marliese" but it is actually just a remake of Led Zeppelin's "Rock & Roll", anyone know what's up with that??

 

Second Question: On my RATT - Dancing Undercover cd, it has 10 seperate tracks listed on the back, but when I play it it has 9 tracks on the player instead of 10, and for track 4 it has Slip Of The Lip / Body Talk as one track 7min 04 seconds long. This has always been a bit of an annoyance for me, is it like this on all Dancin Undercover cd's or am I one of the "(un)lucky ones"?

I'm not sure about the Great White but I'm almost positive that my RATT cd doesn't do that and has all 10 tracks seperate.

Yeah, the Ratt is weird...I haven't heard of that and mine is not that way either. Strange...

Mine is separate......check a different player, maybe the player you're using is not recognizing that particular track...??

Ok, well I picked up another copy of Dancing Undercover to replace mine that had track 4 & 5 combined as one long track. I sat down and started comparing the two and first I noticed the original copy I had has blue lettering on the spine while the new copy has black lettering. So I looked a little closer and noticed the catalog numbers didn't match up. One is 7 81683-2 while the other is A2-81683. I then took a look at the discs and the one with the combined tracks says "Manufactured by Victor Company of Japan. LTD Made In Japan" while my new copy says "Manufactured by JVC Disc America Co. Made In USA". So I guess the copy I have with the combined tracks is a Japanese pressing? The artwork on both inserts say "Printed In The USA" and everything is the same except for the catalog numbers.

 

Does this seem right? I'm very confused. :unsure:

Mine is dark blue lettering, 7 81683-2 Manufactured in USA by WEA. 10 tracks.

Well this is just strange. The copy I have with the dark blue lettering is the one that says Made In Japan on the disc, but has the same catalog number (7 81683-2) and on the disc itself it has the number 81683-2. What the heck do I have here? Does anyone have a Jap Import of this that could give me their catalog number? Very Odd.

Could be a mess up with the case and the CD being mixed up.

I bought a second hand copy of the Helix CD Back for another taste, that says on the cover that it has the bonus track Wild in the streets, but its not on the CD.

Looking at it, the CD and the case are on different lables, so somewhere along the line the original version of the CD has wound up in the re-release version!

That's what I was thinking also, but the catalog numbers on the disc match the numbers on the case/inserts. If it was a Japan press wouldn't the catalog numbers be different?

    • It seems the song/album game virus has infected this thread. I don't know what the fuck is going on.
    • I just found out about Shotgun Mistress great group.
    • Vain: ‘Disintegrate Together’ (May 1, 2024) https://sleazeroxx.com/vain-to-release-new-studio-album-disintegrate-together-on-may-1st/     I didn't want to put someone else's website up here but I wanted you to see this because if you want the CD it says theres only gonna be 200? Ya why bother for 200 but thats what it say's so I thought you would want to know. Your in the USA with me so you got a good shot a getting one. I think it may be just 200 LP's vinyl ..... 
    • I just ordered, Shotgun Mistress – [2021] Shotgun Mistress & Pre-ordered Shotgun Mistress - [2024] Kings Of The Revolution. I just found out about these guys great stuff can't believe I had never heard of ....
    • Man, I really miss places like this! I could spend hours in them just looking at all the stuff. You’re a lucky man to live near there.
    • New album out June 28. Not my style per se, but well executed IMO.  
    • "Still in Love" and "Sweet Melody" by Lancia    
    • I posted about this record store (well, CD store really... it has a fair amount of vinyl, but the focus is CDs) 2 years ago. I go there about once a year, and every single time I do I keep kicking myself to go there more often. Not only for the sheer enjoyment of being able to shop the music genres we love and view all these releases in hand, but because it's so damned overwhelming. There's never time to go through things at leisure, pulling out boxes under racks to rummage, because even flying through things and NOT exploring new artists, it's still 3-4 hours to go through the alphabet... let alone stopping and using their listening station (they'll let you listen to used/opened material, not still sealed merch). It's only an hour and a half drive for me each way, so there's really ZERO excuse for me not going over there more frequently. This time I remembered to take a bunch of pictures, pulling out releases from artists we enjoy just to show what they had in stock... a lot of material you'll never see at any mainstream store (even if there is any that carry CDs anymore). Sure, the prices are more expensive than what you'll pay at Amazon and other online stores, but they're not as bad as you would think, and there are bargains to be had amongst the used material when it comes to OOP discs. And to be fair, being able to view all this stuff in-hand is worth it IMO. (Although every now and then you'll see an OOP disc that is WAAAAAAAY overpriced, but at least they have the odd and unusual.) They have one of those old-school "buyer club" stamp cards, with 20 spaces. One stamp per disc purchased. Every other stamp you get a dollar off, and when you fill a card you get $16.99 off your purchase and then you get a new card. On your birthday, you get $1 off every CD and that's on top of the buyer club card discounts. First the pics from when I was going through the aisles, starting with some general pics. Every single artist has its own title card, so look at the variety and depth of the artists. Also, look at the overstock in boxes underneath all the racks! That's the shit I never have time to go through (except when there's a specific artist I'm focusing in on). You've got CDs in the racks, then ringing the entire room is a shelf of box sets and limited editions, then above that VHS tapes, and above that vintage audio equipment. Sections for DVDs and blu-rays (not just music, but movies as well, including a small section of 4K and 3D titles). There's a smaller upper room level that is nothing but vinyl. If you're going to go, plan at least a full day, not just a quick drive-by. They're open from 11AM - 7PM Eastern Time.     Expensive at $249.99, but how many places have a still-sealed copy of the Vanden Plas Epic Works box set???     And now the stuff I picked up this trip. Most is completist fodder. There are a few artists where I literally want an example of every single pressing, even if I already have other label/year/country versions... call me OCD.               I picked up this one for trade/resale even though I already have it, as it is the LOOOONG out of print original fan club edition.     Hmmm... didn't know there was a solo effort, and it seems to be thematically related to the Threshold album "Legend of the Shires".       More OCD completist fodder. I didn't know that Avalon Records (Japan) licensed releases for South Korea.         Live albums aren't normally my thing, but this appears to be way out of print, and for $10 why not?   A few OOP releases for my multichannel audio collection       I'll be posting more about these once I get my shit together, but I'm WAAAAAAAAAY fucking late to the game when it comes to the Jethro Tull 40th anniversary CD + DVD special editions. They only reason I knew about them at all is that I saw a blurb about the 40th anniversary edition of "Broadsword and the Beast", which is my alltime favorite JT album, the first one I ever heard, and I love the album cover... which led me down the rabbithole of all these anniversary editions and their multichannel mixes. Unfortunately a few of them are now OOP and insanely in the $150-300 range. I ordered all of the ones that were still in print (or that had been reprinted), but there were still 4 that I needed... and they had one of them.   And lastly, the most expensive purchase of the day, going back to previous box set discussions, this was one that wasn't on my radar at the time it came out. Based upon eBay listings, it's now a tough find... and they had one still sealed. No, it's not the Amazon exclusive that was signed by Biff Byford, but autographs aren't important enough for me to spend the $500-$1,000 that the signed version now brings. This one will do nicely at a fraction of the cost... a huge and hefty tome (literally).   So when all was said and done, a great (and expensive!) shopping day, but a place I wholeheartedly recommend visiting should you find yourself out here in flyover country.
