The Dark Side of the Moon (on the CD: Made in U.K., approx. 1987/88)
~ Release by Pink Floyd (see all versions of this release, 119 available)
Annotation
Very similar to this 1986 version without barcode. Discs from both releases were manufactured by EMI Swindon. Glass master version 9 discs did not yet have a mention of EMI SWINDON in the matrix. There are no colon-separated numbers from duplication (characteristic for this plant), instead, 'plus' separators were written on the glass master, which were then partially stamped over. (see images)
The discs of this release were made no later than 1987, but possibly released some time later.
The barcode on this release (the human-readable text) is expressed as EAN-13 (13 digits with leading zero).
The disc's subchannel contains a 33 sector (0.4s) pregap to track 1 and very tiny 3 sector pregaps to the rest of the tracks.
Matrix: CDP 7 46001 2 @ 9 +16+ 12+
(the last two numbers and the first plus sign are stamped and different for variants)
Disc ID: 8jTZJTgjGGtKjwdt8UyAgK3DnbY-
Represses from glass master versions 13 to 16 mention EMI SWINDON and have colon separated numbering.
