Audio: International Album Releases (Regular)

John Wesley Harding (1968)

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.

This page is still incomplete - more international stereo releases of this album required. For releases of this album in CBS/Columbia multi-packs, see International Album Releases (Regular) - Multi-Packs.

Self Portrait (1970)

Original US stereo LP, Columbia KCS 9825, 9 Apr 1969.

The front photograph is by Elliot Landy, taken not in Nashville, TN, but at Woodstock, NY.

This album did not have a separate mono mix, but a mono version reduced from stereo was released outside the USA - for this see Mono Album Releases.

For details of quadraphonic releases of Nashville Skyline with rarities, see 1974

Thanks to Tim Dunn for information that this tape with five takes of Lay, Lady, Lay is part of what in 1993 were known as "The Lost Warehouse Tapes". These were between 2200 and 3000 reels of tape recorded between 1953 and 1971, discarded by Columbia and acquired by record producer Clark Enslin. Other recordings by Bob are known to be Mr. Bojangles (released on the 1973 Dylan album), Wild Thing, Blue Moon, Ring Of Fire and Take A Message To Mary.

Lars M. Banke has a copy of the US release KCS 9825 bought in Denmark that has had the "Columbia" logo replaced by "CBS". The record  has US red labels with three logos - there is a shaped red sticker with the CBS logo covering "COLUMBIA". On the front sleeve Lars' copy has a silver foil "CBS" sticker over "Columbia" - it has matrix numbers: Side 1 - XSM139756-1F, Side 2 - XSM139757-1G. Rene Kejlskov Jørgensen has a copy also bought in Denmark with different stickers - it has matrix numbers: Side 1 - XSM139756-1AB, Side 2 - XSM139757-1AF.

Lars M. Banke also has a copy of the US release KCS 9825 bought in Sweden that again has had the "Columbia" logo removed and replaced by "CBS". On the front and rear sleeves this copy has red shaped "CBS" stickers over "Columbia". On the record labels there is a similarly shaped sticker over "Columbia" on each side.

Thanks to Lars M. Banke and Rene Kejlskov Jørgensen for information and scans.

Rene Kejlskov Jørgensen also has copies of albums by other artists bought in Denmark with stickers with text in German "Aus warenrechtlichen Gründen muss dieses Etikett überstickert werden [For copyright reasons this label must be stickered over]" on the labels as shown. Every instant of the name "Columbia" is also blacked out on the front and rear sleeves. The album shown by The Chimes also has a front sticker with "US Pressung [US Pressing]".

CBS SPBG 63601 (UK) - Side 2

Shown on the right is a flyer for the album distributed by CBS to record shops - this was acquired by Henry V. Bell when he worked at Shear's Records in Belfast in 1969.

The paper inner sleeve is generic, and contains details of current CBS albums including The Byrds, Simon & Garfunkel, Blood Sweat & Tears, and Leonard Cohen. The reverse of the inner sleeve is interesting in that it contains an eight point propaganda piece about buying music on vinyl records. At the time the only serious alternative to vinyl was 8-track cassettes, which were much more prevalent in the USA than in the UK. The "Compact Cassette" medium had not yet become established. The rear sleeve has the then CBS postal address of CBS Records, 28/30 Theobalds Road, London WC1. Henry V. Bell points out the sleeve actually shows Nashville Skyline, and also has albums with later catalogue numbers, so may not have been printed at the release date of the album. His copy has a plain white sleeve. However, as far as I can remember, I bought the album on the day it came out or very soon afterwards! Crispin Ollington has a copy with the Upton sleeve, a plain white inner sleeve, and matrix numbers SBPG 63601 A1/B1 (the "S" is handwritten). It does not have a gold foil "STEREO" sticker on the rear sleeve, nor is there a mark on the sleeve when one could have been. This may therefore be the earliest UK pressing.

This album has a sleeve virtually identical to that from the UK. Peter Lindberg's first edition copy has a sticker promoting "Lay, Lady, Lay" as above. The record has orange CBS labels with "CONTROL" and the Allan's logo to the right of the centre hole on Side 1 and just "CONTROL" on Side 2. Stuart Moore has two copies with the same sleeve without the sticker, the first is from the early 1970s and has orange CBS labels without "CONTROL" or the Allan's logo, the second is from the mid 1970s and has the later design orange/yellow CBS labels. (Allan's were music publishers in Australia for Bob Dylan records between 1965 and 1969.)

The first release of this album has the catalogue number SBP 473654 and a "STEREO"/arrows logo in the front blue box. The rear sleeve is in monochrome with a wide white border. There is no country of origin on the sleeve. The record has orange CBS labels with the Allan's logo on Side 1 only.

This rare CBS India stereo vinyl release has the US catalogue number and a unique rear sleeve (sadly without the Johnny Cash poem). The front picture of Bob is pasted on to the white card sleeve, so there is a white border at top and bottom and on the spine side. There is no spine text. The record has black CBS labels with silver text unique to India and came in an EMI generic inner sleeve. The album was made in India by the Gramophone Company of India, a subsidiary of EMI, for CBS Records.

Thanks to Hans Seegers for information and scans.

Another very rare release from South America, this edition has the title on the front sleeve and yet another unique rear design omitting the Nashville skyline picture. The sleeve is made of thin card with three folded-over flaps on the rear. The record is of heavy vinyl and again has orange CBS labels with song titles in Spanish and English. It is described as "Stereo/Mono" but to play it on a mono deck you would have needed a stereo needle. On Side 1 of Hans Seegers' copy of the first release Bob's name is misspelled as "BOD DYLAN". On Side 2 it's correctly spelled "BOB DYLAN".

Thanks to Renaud Depierreux for finding two promo copies on eBay. The first promo copy is of the first release and has promo stamps that say "Para uso publicitario, muestras sin valor [For publicity use, material without value]" on the rear sleeve and on the Side 1 "BOD DYLAN" label (the Side 2 picture is missing). The other eBay promo copy (listed below as the third) is of the second release and has promo stamps that say: "Disco de propaganda, prohibida su venta [Promotional disc, sale prohibited" on the rear sleeve and on both record labels. The Side 1 label has now been corrected to "BOB DYLAN". Manuel Garcia Jara has a promo copy of the first release with "BOD DYLAN" on both record labels and promo stamps which also say "Disco de propaganda, prohibida su venta [Promotional disc, sale prohibited" on the rear sleeve and on both record labels, as the second eBay promo copy. The record of Manuel Garcia Jara's promo copy has matrix numbers: Side 1 - XSM 139.756, Side 2 - XSM 139.757.

CBS CL-5299 (Mexico)/CBS CLS-5299 (Mexico) - detail of rear, scan by Hans Seegers (mono/stereo)

This is the regular Nashville Skyline album with an alternative title (just as Bringing It All Back Home was retitled Subterranean Homesick Blues in Holland). There was also a mono version, see Mono Album Releases. The 1970 front sleeve is the mono sleeve with a sticker says "ESTEREO: SONIDO 360°". Sides 1 and 2 are reversed! The rear sleeve has a completely different design from the US/UK releases with a picture of Bob at the Isle of Wight Festival on 31 Aug 1969. It still contains the poem by Johnny Cash, translated into Spanish. The titles are also translated into Spanish.

CBS SPBG 63601 (Greece) - Side 1 scan by Paul Prince

This rare record with the same catalogue number as the US release has “360° SOUND” red stereo labels with three CBS logos. There is no country of origin on the sleeve or record labels, although all instances of "Columbia" have been replaced by "CBS". The record labels have the US format but the catalogue number is in a different type face, and the word "Nonbreakable" is present. The record of the copy shown has matrix numbers: Side 1 -  KCS 9825 A 9615 written, Side 2 - KCS 9825 B A 691 stamped.

Thanks to Hans Seegers and Manuel Garcia Jara for information that the sleeves (and records without labels up to 1967) were imported from the USA, but the CBS record labels were printed locally. CBS had a record pressing facility in Singapore from 1967, so records after that were sourced locally. Thanks to Daniel Pritchett for scans.

Columbia/Sundazed LP 5124 (USA) - rear scan by Patrick Helfrich

The first CD pressing of this album in Japan was CBS/Sony 32DP 373, which had a red and white obi with price ¥3,200 (the "32" in the catalogue number means the price is ¥3,200).

CBS/Sony 28DP 1024, which had a green and white obi in the "CBS CD ROCK 100" series with price ¥2,800 (again, the "28" in the catalogue number means the price is ¥2,800). It had a 20-page booklet.

Sony Records SRCS 6159 had a black, red, white and blue obi in the "Nice Price Line 15" series with price ¥1,800 (¥1,748 plus sales tax) and date "91-12-1" (1 Dec 1991).

The first release of CBS CDCBS 63601 has no barcode on the rear insert and the disc was made in Japan. The second CBS release now has a barcode and the disc was made in Austria. The Columbia release has a "Nice Price" sticker, a different rear insert design and a CD with two red panels.

The Spanish 1990s CD release is on CBS/Sony because the Columbia name could not be used in Spain for legal reasons. It has the Sony Music Spanish address, Paseo de la Castellana, 93, 28046-Madrid. The artwork was printed in Spain. The CD has the CBS/Sony logo and the Dutch "BIEM/STEMRA" copyright details, although it was almost certainly made in Austria.

Thanks to Bill Hester, Keith Schweiger and Stuart Moore for scans of the Australian releases, CBS and Columbia CDCBS 63601. The CDs were manufactured in Australia but the artwork is the same as the late 1980s European release and was printed in Holland. The CDs of the 1980s and 1990 CBS releases were manufactured in Australia by Disctronics. The 1990 release also came in a double pack with John Wesley Harding.

The two Columbia releases are almost identical except that on the early 1990s CD the text "MANUFACTURED IN AUSTRALIA BY SONY MUSIC ENTERTAINMENT (AUSTRALIA) LIMITED" in on three lines, and on the 1995 CD the text is on four lines.
