strombringer101 Posted April 7, 2019 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
SteveAJones Posted April 7, 2019 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. Quote

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
rm2551 Posted April 9, 2019 Posted April 9, 2019 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. Quote
