Today's WELCOME TO THE SHOWROOM & BACK TO BACK #2 :
XSCAPE USA VINYL LP 
EPIC/SONY 88843053661 S1
(EUROPEAN VERSION 88843053661)

Well, I've had until now only the european LP release of Xscape, but today this record meets its twin-brother from USA (the newcomer in the collection). Yes, there are 2 versions of the Xscape album, even though the differences are very very small. How can you recognize an US press from an european one?
First detail : on the top left side of the back cover, the U.S. version have the "F.B.I. anti-piracy warning" logo, while the european have the Sony logo, and this is the most notable difference. Then, the american sticker have smooth corners, while the european have straight corners. And on the sticker...the US version has an "S1" at the end of the little catalogue number, a small detail the european press has not.
Take a look at the pictures to see all I described in a better way. I hope these infos are useful for all the collectors who didn't knew these things!
