Just got hold of an American pressing of the single CD release of Viva Las Vegas. Interesting in the fact that it has a Japanese obi strip with it...making me think that it was released in Japan. But everything on the CD states that it is an American pressing. ( Made in USA and FBI warning etc).

Never seen an american pressed release made for Japan....kinda wierd undecided.gif But the strip does have the same numbers as the CD itself. Anyone with any info on this....?..would be much appreciated. undecided.gif

Probably not what you want to know but when I got the first Elvis cds I did some searching and found the Japanese market imported them from Germany to get them in their stores, they had an obi strip added for the Japanese market but had been pressed, printed, boxed etc. in Germany.

Hi Chris mate thumbup.gif
There exist in fact many CD Releases / Box Sets that were Made in US or Germany or EU for Japan.
The Japanese take these releases repack them with Booklets and OBI and these are than for SALE for Japan Market.
I have several Box Sets and CDs made this way.
