Mainly to discuss Bruce Springsteen collectables: official vinyl, CD, tape... and maybe some physical bootlegs too.

Yugoslavia LP variants: all albums

Post by eddy_wehbe »

- Darkness On The Edge Of Town: 3 versions
- The River: 4 versions
- Nebraska: 1 version
- Born In The U.S.A.: 8 versions
- Live/1975-85: 2 versions
- Tunnel Of Love: 2 versions

Notes:
- I don't know if I listed the versions in the correct chronological order.
- Please have a look at your copies and tell me if you have one that's any different from the ones I listed.
- I need confirmation of all what is marked in red. Please compare with your copies.
- There could be a red label version of Darkness On The Edge Of Town, but I haven't seen one so far.
- There could be a red label version of The River, but I haven't seen one so far.
- There could be a version of Nebraska with the new Suzy logo on the rear sleeve.

As far as I know, there are at least 3 versions of the Yugoslavia vinyl pressing of Darkness On The Edge Of Town. They all have the same catalog number. Some sleeves have the old Zuzy logo and some have the new one. The labels vary from one version to the other.

As far as I know, there are at least 8 versions of the Yugoslavia vinyl pressing of Born In The U.S.A. They all have the same catalog number, and they all seem to have the same front sleeve with a printed hype box (not a sticker). The main differences in the labels are the color, the position of the title and artist name, the text on the left side, and the text on the right side. There are many more differences, like in the text under the track list, the text around the labels, and the font.

I previously had three separate topics:
- Yugoslavia LP variants: Darkness On The Edge Of Town
- Yugoslavia LP variants: The River
- Yugoslavia LP variants: Born In The U.S.A.

I merged them into one and included the remaining LP's pressed in Yugoslavia: Nebraska, Live/1975-85, and Tunnel Of love.
