Pink Floyd wish you were here cd fake ?

Have a copy Columbia made in USA HCD 5249 05 and no barcode on the cover is that a fake cd ??

 

Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here

Apparently it is this one,
. The Columbia issue

 

Should have these identifiers on it apparently

• Barcode: 0 7464-33453-2
• Rights Society: STEM/BIEM
• Matrix / Runout: HCD-5249-05

 

They only have the CBS cover photos, so I can't help there.

Hope that helps you out.

 

US Sonopress perhaps.
If you can provide a a DR scan of it at least we can track what mastering was used on it.

 

Hallo Mark cd is the same as your picture

 

Well I can only guess, because it isn't really my field, but I assume that means it's good.

 

Interesting it has the European Rights on it, so I'm thinking it was manufactured by the US for another country.

 

Here a picture of the back no barcode

 

Hmm.
Starting to re-think it.
HCD is known to be Russia and it's kinda funny, the one's for sale are coming from there and Serbia
Same for the HCD Animals.

 

so its fake?

 

No triangle

 

what does the matrix say? A picture of the inner ring would answer the question.

 

I'm thinking yes.
The STEM/BIEM on a US is throwing me off.

 

Same as the picture above I'm assuming
Made to look like a Sonopress manufacture.

 

I ordered a 'new'copy of the early Japan cd on Ebay years ago and it was a Russian fake.

 

The old US was without as well.

 

Usually the matrix ring is hard to fake. I tend to think fake as well, but I am somewhat impressed by the job.

 

HCD-5249-05

 

Fake

 

Look fore another Japan cd ???

 

I have a DADC Pitman CK 33453 copy without a matrix sequence. It has 'CMU P 20' die-cut in the clear hub.
According to the PinkFloydArchives it's a legit seventh US release.
