What the sources say about these ties
- Sony Music Entertainment imprint
- Columbia is one of Sony Music’s four flagship labels
- Sony Music Entertainment owns
- columbiarecords.com states that COLUMBIA and the "Walking Eye" design are registered trademarks of Sony Music Entertainment; Sony bought the CBS Records Group, Columbia included, in 1988
Built from the ownership rows on the brand and company pages, each cited where it is recorded. Made in is the country of production on this product's record; the GS1 prefix of a barcode names the issuing organisation, not where the product was made.
About this product
This barcode belongs to the remastered European CD of Oh Mercy, Bob Dylan's twenty-sixth studio album, first released by Columbia Records on 12 September 1989 and produced by Daniel Lanois.[2] Catalogue number 512343 2, printed as COL 512343 2 on the back cover and disc, is a single CD in a standard jewel case with a four-page booklet, mastered by Greg Calbi at Sterling Sound and pressed in Austria.[3] MusicBrainz dates the UK release 29 March 2004; it carries the remaster of the 2003 hybrid SACD reissue without the SACD layer.[4][3] Columbia is a label of Sony Music Entertainment, whose name appears on the copyright lines.[5][3] Amazon UK sells it new.[1]
The same disc, with this barcode, also turns up inside the two-CD set Chronicles & Oh Mercy and the 2007 European box x3, which pairs it with Infidels and Time Out of Mind.[6][7] The 1989 album reached No. 30 in the United States and No. 6 in the UK.[2]
