Elton John Japan cds fake? 15 Years, 6 Months ago Karma: 0  
I have wondered if one of the Elton John's Japan mini lp I've bought on eBay last year is fake, also have other ones by EJ that make the list.

The first thing I usually look for is the underside of the cd itself should, though not always, have the catalog number etched on the inner ring.

For example: EJ's 17-11-70 lp catalog number UICY-9103 is on the obi, jacket spine and on the playing side of cd but underneath(silver side) to my surprise the backward writing of his earlier pressing PHCR-4014!

Does this indicate that this disc is really the PHCR version, not the UICY one??

I would appreciate some help on this if anyone knows.

MHCP-1002 : 2006-06-07

Recorded in early July 1973 this album took nearly a year to make it to streets.

One of the most elaborate record covers ever produced and probably the most elaborate so far to make it to mini LP release. It is nearly impossible to capture the splendour of this on a web site but we shall try...

Die Cut Covers :

Die cutting of the cover image or inserts is probably the most common technique employed to create gimmick covers. It's probably also in most cases the cheapest.

There are thousands of die cut covers. Here are a few of the more popular and best known releases.
