Hello,


I am from Argentina and yesterday bought in a record shop ¨Some Girls live in Texas¨ in cd + dvd digipack. Also they have just released Ladies and Gentlemen and Live at the chekerboard lounge with Muddy waters both in cd+dvd digipack format. Digipack as the from the vaults series, same size.

Did not see this kind of format at amazon, just cd with no dvd in jewel case.

Does anybody knows if this are some kind of special releases.

Thanks
Fernando

Who issued that CD+DVD combos? Are there any copyright information?
Can you flip the CD, check the play side, read matrix number and post it here? There should be a string of letters and numbers around the hub of the CD including two IFPI codes. Those ifpi codes will provide you info on the pressing plant and country of origin. I shall not be surprised - the combos you saw are Argentinian products for regional market.

Ironebelly,

this are the numbers I see in the play side of the CD: 41247-1 0416652 / 00.

The companys are Universal and Eagle Rock. I am sure now this are official domestic market releases becouse it is a record and book store chain that dont sell bootlegs where I bouught it.

Many thanks for your help.

Fernando, what about ifpi codes? Matrix string is OK, but if you want to know the origin (pressing plant for the CD) you need to look for ifpi.

Here is the list

But I am almost 100% positive that you got regional product for Argentina. Here, in EU we had regular DVD-sized packs for CD+DVD combos SGLT 78 and Checkerboard 81. Both are out of print but can be found in selected stores.

Recently we got stand alone CDs of L&G, SGLT and Checkerboard in jewel cases. But no combo yet.

Ironbelly,

IFPI LL02 thats all the numbers I can find in the CD.

Many thanks for your info. I purchased years ago the CD+DVD combo in the rectangular digipack edition, but i was surprised to find this new format now togenther with L&G and Checkerboard.

Sounds logic, if you have this 3 shows in video why not to make CD+DVD combos, but my surprise was that seems that were released only here at least by the moment.

Bye
Fernando

This could be Teltron Argentina or Terax (Masterdisc) S.A. Argentina. Anyway, it seem to be product for local market.

Yes it is, it is Teltron Argentina, and its seems a local market product by the moment.

Thanks for your help.

I see that here in Germany (at Amazon.de and also at jpc.de) the DVD and CD combinations of Some Girls Live In Texas and Checkerboard Lounge (in the rectangular DVD boxes) are no longer available. So maybe these digipacks will be the successors. Let's wait and see...

I believe it is all around EU at this moment. Actually, SGLT CD+DVD combo in rectangular DVD type case was on sale as low as 7 Euros this spring in FNAC in Lisbon. I believe you can find it in regular stores in discounted bins. Though I did not check those recently.
