The top scans definitely look like fakes to me. Apart from obvious difference in the printing, the top ones have a ring on the label side of the CD.

Here is a scan of the silver side of the second 2nd. The IFPI code on the reverse is probably not on your copies.

yes,my jethro is FAKE....well
the artwork is incredible..very pretty 20 years ago I had el lp original double.
is very similar...the sound is good.
too bad.
The problem here is that you can not open the cd and shops lose credibility if they see a sale in open cd.
the propietraios of these small shops do not know minilps.net ask for guidance only and distributors in Europe and USA to believe that what they buy is really Japanese.
the shop to buy this mini lp is full of fakes, and people believe they are buying Japanese.
I just buy one of Jethro and humble pie
I buy in 2002 almost the entire genesis of the collection and check the blue logo through minilps.net cds are all true.
slight scare me a great
I have 4 of shmcd zeppelin are incredible
that good that I have made a mistake in only 2 mini lps must also be fake .....
I hope not falsify the shm-cd
I hope my post will serve many people and not to buy fakes
and seek further guidance before making a purchase

Front cover (main) image of WPCR-13295 : Talking Heads : Speaking In Tongues (+2)

Fifth studio album, featuring Talking Heads only US Top Ten hit, Burning Down The House (including an alternative version as a bonus, and an unfinished outtake of Two Note Swivel).

Front cover (main) image of ARC-7003 : Semiramis : Dedicato a Frazz
ARC-7003 : 2002-03-27

Rare Italian Progressive rock album from the Trident label.

Images for this release show two different types of obis for original (sticker) and reprints (paper) of this release.

Front cover (main) image of Caroline-2008 : Various Artists : Caroline Records 2009 US Releases
Caroline-2008 : 2008-08-05

In late 2008 Caroline Records in the USA released a number of albums by the following artists: UFO, Jethro Tull, Quicksilver Messenger, Brian Eno, Roxy Music, The Raspberries, Kate Bush, Blondie, The Band, Red Hot Chili Peppers and Van Der Graaf Generator (full list below).

Unlike the suspect Universal releases these are 100% Japanese. The only difference between these and the Japanese (apart from being as much as 50% cheaper) is a sticker on the bar code of the obi.

As at March 2009 most of these are still available at Amazon.
