Are retitled records also within the scope of your current collecting? For example the s/t Rose Tattoo LP you've pictured above, was retitled 'Rock 'n' Roll Outlaws' for most of it's European releases & had different art.
Of course, if the title is on the cover! :D
For example ARTCH's "Another Return" / "Another Return tu Church Hill". Or some with spanish titles.
Or Ozzy's "Talk of the Devil" / "Speak of the Devil" wich i do'nt own both.
That Ozzy LP always struck me as a particularly odd & completely unneccesary retitling. Did they think Ozzy fans wouldn't understand the title & boycott buying the album because of that one word's difference?

The "problem" with this thread is that it feels like Thomas has already uploaded ALL the cover variations I could ever think of :(
...but since posting record pics is so bloody fun I figure I/we shouldn't be afraid to 'repost', just in case :wink:
Will get going on that next week.

I wish there had been a Swedish release with our equivalent of the saying, “Tala om trollen” (speak of the trolls).

Now i'm aware of that translation i retract my previous statement & hope for a bootleg t-shirt bearing that title.
