Abstrakt Algebra - S/T (1995) question

Warepire · 17.08.2011 20:03:01

I recently discovered that the promo CD version of this album may not be that straight forward to discover. I bought my copy of Abstrakt Algebra from a well known record store here in Sweden (this store only gets CDs directly from the labels).

I noticed that my matrix for Abstrakt Algebra is different than entered here ... And they are not similar enough for me to suspect a typo from the member responsible for the entry.

The matrix in the entry is: MRRCD 24 [DCM Logo] 25022222
The matrix of my copy is: MRRPRCD 24 [DCM Logo] 14111101

The MRRPRCD 24 sounds very much like a promo matrix, but the CD art, booklet and back cover is a 100% match with the retail version. There are no other indications of it being a promo.

Can everyone who owns this CD please quote their matrix and how they got the CD (if you remember)?
Could a moderator please send a mass-PN to make the owners aware of this question?
Is someone interested in translating my question to German that makes sense?

I'm gonna translate it.

Also, eigentlich ja ganz einfach, er hat sich seine CD in einem schwedischen CD-Laden gekauft, der nur Alben direkt von den Labels zugesandt bekommt, und ist dabei auf eine leicht abweichende Matrix gestossen.
Diese Matrix würde in seinen (und auch meinen) Augen eigentlich für die Promo-Version des Albums zutreffen, allerdings sei sonst auf dem Album keine weitere Vermerkung, dass es eine Promo sein könnte/ist.
Booklet, Artwork und Backcover scheinen 100%ig wie eine "normale" Version aussehen.

Seine Frage ist, ob ein Mod eine Rund-Mail versenden könnte, damit sich Jeder Besitzer kurz damit auseinandersetzt, vielleicht sich zu erinnern versucht, woher er die CD hat (ebay, second hand oder nicht, etc. pp.), damit man Klarheit hätte, ob man einen neuen Datensatz erstellen müsste.

I sent a mass PN. Let's hope for some answers. smile

Just checked my copy of the CD. I too have this Matrix: MRRPRCD 24 [DCM Logo] 14111101 and beside that it is 100% a retail version. I bought it when it came out in Frankfurt/Main in a record-shop specialized in Rock and Hard & Heavy.

Hi Warepire,

my CD has the same matrix as yours. And I bought the CD in 1995 at Media Markt, which I think is known in Sweden, too. So I'm quite sure, that it isn't a promo CD.

My CD has also the same Matrix Number as the CD from the Thread-Opener. I bought the CD new about 10 Years ago in a big Warehouse called "Karstadt", if i remember well.

Mine is just like yours - MRRPRCD 24 [DCM Logo] 14111101

Bought it as a second-hand copy, so I don't know the whole pedigree...

Abstrakt Algebra

Mein Exemplar hat auch hat auch die Matrix MRRPRCD 24 [DCM Logo] 14111101.

Ich habe die CD bei Musik Müller (Drogeriemarkt) in Homburg/Saar gekauft.

Interesting results here, this definitely requires a new dataset. Since more members than I have a copy like this I cannot assume mine is a mess-up from somewhere.

Thanks everyone for your input!
