My ABBA "Greatest Hits" CD (bought around late '85) says "Made in Germany", "Printed in Germany" and nothing with a US address on it. I don't recall buying it as an import CD. Of course, back then a lot of US CDs were printed and/or made in Germany - but I thought there was always a US address on the back insert if the US record label released the CD. Does anyone else here recall buying US CDs that had no indication it was a US-released CD?

Oh yeah, not all CDs back then had an indication that it was a US-released CD.

I seem to recall in the USA that imports back then were very uncommon in typical record stores because they were frowned upon by the industry. Therefore if it was in a mainstream record store, it was released by a US company.
