This page is part of a list of original releases by release date of international commercially-released regular stereo Dylan albums. They do not contain rarities or obscurities and are not eligible for the Searching For A Gem list. Nevertheless, their interest value or scarcity means they're worth listing here - as far as I know some are not included on any other Internet site. Promo releases of regular albums are now listed here and no longer in the former yearly Promo sections. For releases of this album in Columbia multi-packs, see International Album Releases (Regular) - Multi-Packs. |

"MTV Unplugged" - faked promo 2LP set, Columbia C2 67000 (USA), 1995:
 Columbia C2 67000 (USA) - front scan by Gerd Rundel (faked "promo" release) |
Gerd Rundel has a "promo" 2LP set from eBay which is definitely faked. The front sticker is actually printed on, the small text on the rear sleeve is blurred, the labels look hand printed and are badly glued on. The matrix number on all four record labels to the left of the centre hole is "BL 67099" - the numbers should be "AL 67098", "BL 67098", "AL 67099" and "BL 67099". Arie de Reus bought one at a record fair and also says it is definitely a fake. The records of this copy have unlikely handwritten matrix numbers: Side 1 - 001-A, Side 2 - 001-B, Side 3 - 001-C, Side 4 - 001-D. Thanks to Gerd Rundel and Arie de Reus for information and scans. |

"MTV Unplugged - promo stereo cassette releases, Columbia CT 67000 (USA), 1995:
 Columbia CT 67000 (USA) - insert scan by Tom Willems (promo variant 1) |
The first promo cassette release has a pink insert with black
text, blank on the reverse. "U.S. VERSION" has been added in handwriting to
show the cassette does not include Love Minus Zero/No Limit. On Side 1 the
order of Desolation Row and Rainy Day Women #12 & 35 is reversed compared to
the CD release. The cassette itself is transparent smoked grey with
pink Columbia labels with black text. The second promo cassette release was made by NOW!

There is a lime green insert with black text, blank on the reverse, this time with the "CT 67000" catalogue number. The cassette is again transparent smoked grey, this time with lime green paper labels with song titles. It also does not include Love Minus Zero/No Limit. |

 Columbia 478374 1 (NL) - front with sticker, scan by Gerd Rundel |

This release has the extra track, Love Minus Zero/No Limit, and is also listed in 1995. Because of this the inner sleeves are different from those of the US release, which doesn't have the extra track on Side 3. |

"MTV Unplugged" - CD release, Columbia CK 67000 (USA/Canada), 30 Jun 1995:
 Columbia CK 67000 (USA) - front scan by Harald Sigvartsen |
As far as I know this release is still on sale in the USA and Canada. It has a long folded front insert. Harald Sigvartsen has the US release and noticed that the running order of tracks 6 and 7 are different from the European release. Track 6 on the US and Canadian releases is Rainy Day Women #12 & 35, and track 7 is Desolation Row (as on the vinyl and tape releases). On the European version below these two tracks are in reversed order, with Desolation Row being track 6, and Rainy Day Women #12 & 35 being song 7. |

As well as the extra track, this release also had the clapping loop on Knockin' On Heaven's Door on its first release. The release with the clapping loop and its replacement were both SRCS 7616 - the faulty CD has matrix number DP-7482 1 (on the clear centre of the CD), the corrected CD has matrix number DP-7552 1. Promo and commercial copies of the faulty CD are shown. The promo copy has a pink numbered sticker on the rear insert and the text "SAMPLE" in the clear centre of the CD. The faulty CDs have a purple Sony logo, while the corrected CD has a blue Sony logo (much harder to see in the scan). All copies of this album had a grey, white, black and red obi with the price ¥2,300 (¥2,233 plus sales tax) and release date "95-5-11" (11 May 1995). The withdrawal date was 10 May 1997. The front is a 12-page folded insert in English and there is also a 4-page folded inset in English and Japanese.
Thanks to Hans Seegers and Wil Gielen for information and scans.

the US rear insert. Thanks to Hans Seegers and Jack from Canada for information and scans. |

"Alben Für Die Ewigkeit [Albums For
Eternity]: MTV Unplugged" - CD release in box, Columbia/Sony Music
(catalogue number?) (Germany), 25 May 2012:
This release in a white card sleeve is part of a set from Sony
Music/Columbia in Germany called
"Alben
Für Die Ewigkeit [Albums For Eternity]". The front sleeve has the normal
artwork, the white German text is printed on a clear plastic outer sleeve! As
this is a European release, it includes Love Minus Zero/No Limit, so is also
listed in 1995.
 Front picture from www.amazon.de |
The
rear of the sleeve now has the new Sony Music logo. All the albums in the
2012 series were live, but 2001's
"Love And Theft"
was added to this series in Mar 2014. Thanks to Wiebke Dittmer and Tom Willems for information. |

This massive set is the latest in a series of "Complete Columbia Album Collections" featuring artists such as Miles Davis, Charlie Mingus, Duke Ellington, Dave Brubeck and even Blue Oyster Cult. The CD version of the set includes 41 Dylan albums in card sleeves, 14 of which have been remastered for this project, plus a 2CD set of previously released non-album tracks entitled Side Tracks. The albums exclude all compilations and The Bootleg Series sets, but do include the deleted 1973 Dylan album, also see 1973, and the extra 2CD set Side Tracks includes one side of the 1971 single George Jackson (Acoustic version), R-0085, see 1971. The set is therefore listed in 2013. The set also includes a hard cover book with extensive new liner notes and previously unseen photos.
All the CDs come in card sleeves. The European sleeves are made of thicker card than the US sleeves, but they are otherwise identical, so are not shown. The catalogue number on the sleeve is "88691924312JK35" plus "DISC 39". The CDs are different in detail, the US MTV Unplugged CD has catalogue number "88691924312D39", whereas the European CD has catalogue number "88691924312-39". The European CD was made in the EU (probably Austria). The US and European copyright details are printed at the bottom of the Bob Dylan CDs, and round the circumference for The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan onwards, so I haven't shown them for these CDs. Unusually the European CD39 release does not include Love Minus Zero/No Limit, so it must have been copied from the US release.
For more details of the set, see International Album Releases (Multi-Packs) 2010s.
