strombringer101 Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 Hey Zeppelin collectors need your help. I have a small cottage in Guangzhou China, and it means I am really close to Hong Kong. so I went to a HMV music shop and bought the CD version of TSRTS. Are these bootlegs? As you see I’m showing you the original one I bought years ago, and the one I bought couple of months ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveAJones Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 I don't believe either is a bootleg. The first, dated 2007, with the full color Swan Song logo, 8122799611 ends with "atlantic.com.au" AU is music industry code for Australia. So that seems to be a 2007 Australian cd. The second, SS201-2-1 with "Made in USA by WEA Manufacturing" seems to be a USA cd (date unknown) (possibly older stock...pre 2007). Bear in mind there are over 250 variations of TSRTS soundtrack across all formats (LP, 8-TRACK, CASS, CD), not including pirated copies.

I was not happy how they cut NO Quarter and the Guitar Solo from Celebration Day. So I kept my old copy because they have the original. Yeah the AU copy does sound better but I was shocked about the cutting of those songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rm2551 Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 (edited) au is the Australia domain on the www - not restricted to a music code. ^I might have phrased that a bit wrong - but you get what I mean. Edited April 9, 2019 by rm2551 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
