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 entries required. For releases of this album in CBS/Columbia multi-packs, see International Album Releases (Regular) - Multi-Packs. |

 Original album sleeve |
Original US stereo LP, Columbia TC 37496, 12 Aug 1981. The "pop-art" front sleeve is by Pearl Beach, with the rear photograph of Bob contemplating a rose by Howard Alk. The original rear sleeve design using a Cadillac was withdrawn and was only used for the original 1981 Brazilian release, probably by mistake. Thanks to Yan Friis for scans of two test "slicks" for the US album sleeve - the first has the Cadillac rear sleeve (with the bar code missing) and the final front sleeve, the second has an earlier version of the final rear sleeve with the credits badly placed but with the final bar code and a rejected black text version of the front sleeve. The 1981 UK release used the black text version of the front sleeve, again possibly by mistake. This album is unique in that it's the only Bob Dylan album which has undergone a track change. This is because The Groom's Still Waiting At The Altar, a non-album 7" single B-side, was added to later releases of vinyl albums and the CD release. For singles with this song as the B-side, see 1981 (they're rarities because the A-side, Heart Of Mine, was an edit of the album version). For a promo 12" single, see US & International Stereo Singles & EPs 1980-83. The current US CD is shown for comparison with the album sleeve (on the CD front insert Bob's name is proportionally larger). Out-takes from this album have been officially released as follows: Acetates 1981: Yonder Comes Sin (R-0653) - Special Rider demo, out-take from Shot Of Love, recorded Rundown Studios, Santa Monica, CA, 27 Oct 1980, from Columbia/CBS US/UK acetates, see 1981 7" Singles: The Groom's Still Waiting At The Altar (added to CD release as track 6); Let It Be Me (single B-side - Shot Of Love out-take recorded May 1981 - not the 1970 Self Portrait version) Biograph (1985): Caribbean Wind The Bootleg Series Vols. 1-3 (1991): Angelina; Need A Woman; You Changed My Life |

Vinyl and Tape Releases
"Shot Of Love" - stereo vinyl test pressing, Capitol Records (no catalogue number) (USA), 1-26 Jun 1981:
 Capitol Records generic 12" test pressing sleeve, scan by Arie de Reus (dated 26 Jun 1981) |
These test pressings manufactured by Capitol Records on behalf of Columbia Records consist of two separate
acetate LPs in Capitol Records generic sleeves. Side 1 of Arie de Reus' copy is dated 10 Jun 1981, Side 2 is dated
18 Jun 1981, and the sleeves are dated 26 Jun 1981 (all in UK date format). Side 1 is unique in that it has a rarity on the reverse side, a mono version of the title track Shot Of Love only (R-0644). It's possible that this is a mistake, abandoned after the first track. There is nothing on the reverse of the Side 2 disc. This entry is also listed in 1981. Bruce Mulle has a second acetate of Side 2, in the same Capitol sleeve, this time dated 10 Jun 1981 (again in UK date format) in the same handwriting. The Side 2 label is different, coming from Precision Lacquer (which was based in Hollywood, CA) and dated "6/1/81" (1 Jun 1981 in American date format). Thanks to Arie de Reus and Bruce Mulle for information and scans. |

"Shot Of Love" - stereo vinyl LP release, Columbia TC 37496 (USA), 12 Aug 1981, reissue Columbia PC 37496 (USA), (date?):
Columbia TC 37496 (USA)/Columbia PC 37496 (USA) - first and second releases |
This album was released later as Columbia PC 37496 with The Groom's
Still Waiting At The Altar added to the album as the first track on Side 2. Gil Lamont's second release album has matrix numbers: Side 1 - AL 37496 (HXAD) PAL-37496 G1A, Side 2 - BL 37496 P (BXAD) BL-37496 G2C.

"Shot Of Love" - 8-track stereo cassette, Columbia TCA-37496 (USA), 12 Aug 1981:
 Columbia TCA-37496 (USA) - upper side scan by Hans Seegers |
As far as I know this is the last Bob Dylan 8-track release! An oddity is Shot Of Love (Reprise) at the end of Program 3 - this is faded at 1:55 and must have been added to make up the program time. As it is a rarity, this album has also been added to 1981. Thanks to Keith Venturoni for information and the photo, and to Hans Seegers for scans.

The sleeve and record of this album were manufactured in Canada. The sleeve has “LITHO IN CANADA” on the spine. It does not have a barcode on the rear at top right.

 CBS 85178 (Ireland) - detail of Side 1, scan by Éamonn Ó Catháin |
 CBS 85178 (Ireland) - Side 2 scan by Éamonn Ó Catháin |
The front sleeve of the UK album is immediately noticeable as different from the US album - the US album title is in white lettering (see above), whereas the UK sleeve has the title in black as per the rejected front design (see above). Hans Seegers informs me the UK was the only country in the world where this sleeve variation was used!
The record itself is in a stiff paper inner sleeve, with the song information and credits on both sides: white on black on one side, black on white on the other. It has orange/yellow labels with catalogue number S CBS 85178 and written matrix numbers: Side 1 - S-CBS-85178-A1, Side 2 - S-CBS-85178-B2.
Thanks to Éamonn Ó Catháin for scans of the Irish release. It has the UK sleeve but the record itself was made in Ireland with a different text layout for the song titles and copyrights.
"Shot Of Love" - stereo vinyl LP release, CBS 85178 (NL), Aug 1981:
 CBS 85178 (NL) - front scan by Gerd Rundel |
This release uses the US front sleeve design and the record is in a stiff paper inner sleeve with musician details and credits. The record has orange/yellow CBS labels with handwritten matrix numbers: Side 1 - 01-85178-A F5, Side 2 - 01-85178-B F1, also “MASTERED BY CAPITOL” stamped in dead wax on both sides.

"Shot Of Love" - stereo vinyl LP release, CBS 85178 (Italy), Sep 1981:
 CBS 85178 (Italy) - front scan by Hans Seegers |
The Italian release of CBS 85178 again has the same front sleeve as the US
release. The record has orange/yellow
CBS
labels
and the copy shown has written matrix numbers: Side 1 - CI 85178-1L
10-9-81, Side 2 - CI 85178-2L 15-9-81.
Previous Dylan Italian releases were made by CBS Sugar, and the offset
positioning of "MADE IN ITALY BY CBS" at the bottom of the record label
looks as if "SUGAR" has been removed. (See the Italian releases of Pat
Garrett & Billy The Kid, where the first release has "SUGAR" and the
second doesn't.) Thanks to Hans Seegers for information and scans. |

"Shot Of Love" - stereo vinyl LP release with alternate rear sleeve, CBS 138.507 (Brazil), 1981:
 CBS 138.507 (Brazil), front sleeve - scan by Hans Seegers |
The car is the original design for the rear album sleeve with
lettering reported to be by Clydie King. It was withdrawn at the
last minute to be replaced by the design with Bob contemplating a rose (see
above), but for some reason the first pressings of Shot Of
Love by CBS Brazil went out with the rejected design. This is a much sought-after variant. The front
sleeve is the same as the US album with
white title text. There is also an inner sleeve, which has a slight
cut-out at centre front to make removal of the record easier. The record has
orange/yellow Discos CBS labels. Both the sleeve and the record were made in
Brazil. Gerd Rundel's copy has
handwritten matrix numbers: Side 1 - 138507-A, Side 2 - 138507-B. Thanks to Hans Seegers and Gerd Rundel for information and scans. |

"Shot Of Love" - promo and commercial stereo vinyl LP releases, Columbia 20.251 (Argentina), 1981:
 Columbia 20.251 (Argentina) - front photo by Sergio Magnacca |
The promo release of this album has a sticker on the back which says
"Disco para demostración- venta prohibida" or "Record for
demonstration- sale prohibited". This text is also repeated on the
record labels above the album title. The song titles and credits are
translated into Spanish on the rear sleeve and record labels (now changed
from CBS to Columbia). Amusingly, Watered-Down Love is mistranslated as "Amor
Submarino" (or "Underwater Love")! The correct translation of
"watered-down" is "diluido" (diluted) as on the
Mexican Side 1 label above. The Argentinean 7" single
release with Dead Man, Dead Man as the A-side and Watered-Down Love
as the B-side, Discos CBS DEP 200, has the same mistake. The matrix numbers
of both copies shown are: Side
1 - AL 37496, Side 2 -BL 37496. The commercial release of the album is
identical but without the promo sticker on the sleeve and printed text on the
record labels. Thanks to Sergio Magnacca for information and photos, further thanks to Hans Seegers for information and scans. |

These CD release were made in Austria for the European market. The 1990s release, Columbia 467839 2, has a "Nice Price" sticker on the front of the jewel case and some differences from the current CD:
The tracklist is repeated on the reverse of the front insert.
On the inside of the front insert it has "Mastered for compact disc by Vic Anesini of CBS Records Studio N.Y."
Only one song is listed above the centre hole on the CD itself.
The current CD release, Columbia COL 474689-2, has been on sale since 2002. On Hans Seegers' copy of this album the front sleeve has a very strange colour balance (it's not a negative image or the album title would be black). Compare it to the US and Canadian CD releases above. The insert for my copy has the expected colours!
Thanks to Rene Kejlskov Jørgensen and Hans Seegers for information and scans.
"Shot Of Love" - CD release, Columbia CK 37496 (Australia), 1990s (two releases):
 Columbia CK 37496 (Australia) - front scan by Stuart Moore (first release) |
Stuart Moore's copy was the first release on sale in Australia - it looks
exactly the same as the US release and there's no mention of Australia on
the inserts or the CD. Compared with the US CD, this CD has the "DIDP"
information under the "CK 27496" to the right of the centre hole and extra
text at the bottom of the disc outside the black rings. Keith Schweiger's
copy is a later release with a new red CD design that does mention
Australia. The inserts look identical apart from colour shading. Thanks to Stuart Moore for information and scans. |
