Hi there,
I have a question for you.
Yesterday i received a copy of the US Rio RCA club release, cat.no. R163452, which i already had however i noticed both my copies have totally different label colours and one sleeve has a barcode on the bakcside and the other one doesn't. See picture for the labels of both versions.
This must be version 3 of the different release as both HLTW and HBTR are the long versions. The matrix no. is the same on both records except for the lilac one which has "A2" added on both sides.
The question is: what is the story behind these ? Is one of those a re-release, if so, which one was released first?
Thanks as always!

Sorry, don't know really! Mine has the barcode on the back sleeve and an "A1" in the matrix on both sides. It was sealed when I got it. I somehow guess (but that is specualtion) that the one w/o the barcode is the reissue. You can find pics of this one on discogs.
And, yes this club release plays the third version of the US versions.

Yes, it is on discogs, but A) it is hard to believe everything stated on discogs and B) only the lilac-label version is mentioned under the RCA release.
As for the barcode, the one which does not have the barcode does have the white space where the barcode is printed on the other version.

Very curious if anyone knows a little bit more about these two different kinds of labels.

I've got 2 with lilac labels and one with the other color. I was wondering about that when I was asking questions about identifying records and stuff. Mine have different cat. numbers.

It is not sealed, it is open, but still in shrink. My labels are:

One could be the other music club release, Colombia House, ST-5...., my copies have exact the same cat.no., same tracklisting etc. Only diffence is the label colour, which is not a different shade but complete different colouring.

All 3 of mine are same catalog number, same track listing, etc. as well (the ST...) but 2 are lilac and one is the pink/peach colour.

Not sure if i understand your messages correctly, first you write your copies have different cat.nos. and the last message reads they all have the same cat.no.... So, according to your last message you have the same as i do: different labels but same cat.no.? (Except that you have two lilac ones and one peach/green one)
