the only diff is the barcode  thats not enough to warret a new page. just a foot note.

Not sure about all the digital stuff but all the records are very different in many obvious and various ways but yes there can be some very bewildering reasons that dictate whether things are different or not on discogs

I was referring specifically to Allen's collection of 8,154 on Discogs.  

It's 8164 now, Fathers day was good to me.

And there's 14 versions of this in my collection all different, I do wish they'd stop pressing the bloody thing in different bootleg colours though so I could stop buying them, I'm sure it's some sort of addiction now.

Allen... Don't support counterfeits.

Normally I'd agree and I don't but I started buying the various colours of this years ago on a whim and now because I've got that many I feel I've got to continue.

With the repress/remaster and considering it sounds so good I expect that will be the end of them now because for the last 10 to 12 years they've been satisfying a demand that can now be satisfied legally and for a lot less money as Island will have pressed a shed load of these and I expect will continue to do for a while, you quite often see these things re pressed in smallish numbers when a band has a new album to push that the record company is not sure of but not in this case.

 

Also the counterfeits have got steadily worse in quality in every department in the last couple of years so unless you are buying it to collect the various colours or to hang the actual record on the wall rather than the sleeve (because playing it isn't a good idea) buy the new repress, it sounds a lot better than all the counterfeits, better than the original US and UK releases and almost as good as the 7" box, I've been playing mine to death.
