Add CD for existing LP release

I have a CD that was originally released as an album:

Is the CD considered a separate release from the album? I want to be able to to CD ID info which I understand is not possible for a LP.

Thanks and sorry if this question has been asked a million times.

Yes, reissues/other formats are considered a seperate ā€˜releaseā€™ :slight_smile:

If you go to the release group page:


And hit ā€˜add releaseā€™ on the right hand side, you can fill out all the information from your CD version, release date, barcode, packaging etc. Then it will give you the option of re-using the tracklist/recordings from the LP release (just change the format to CD after selecting that option, and check the numbering etc).
Then youā€™re done! Should be pretty quick. Let us know if you need a hand.

Cheers.

Thanks, got it done.

However, I wonder if itā€™s right. In the artistā€™s album list, my entry (at the top) looks like a duplicate:

It was close to perfect, except that:

Both issues have been fixed by @SheamusPatt in edit #41477004.

@andmalc: It would be great, if you could scan the back side from your CD case. Mostly you can see the missing dates from this ā€œback coverā€. If you also own the booklet, many of us are happy to get additional informations about all the involved people.:innocent::wink: Thanks for your addition!
