"Heart To Heart" is the correct 45 version on the Rock On CD, for those interested in tracking it down.

Fetta, 550 Madison Avenue was at the time of these cd releases, the address of Sony Music. Can you look further to see if there is an address for Madacy?

The 1996 releases have 99 Morris Ave Springfield NJ
07081, and "Made In U.S.A." on both the disc and artwork.

The 1997 releases have P.O. Box 1445, St. Laurent,
Quebec, Canada H4L 4Z1, with "Made In U.S.A/Printed In
U.S.A." on the artwork.

The 1998 releases have 3333 Graham Blvd. , Suite 102,
Montreal Quebec, H3R 3L5, with "Made In U.S.A." on the
disc and artwork.

The 2004 releases have P.O. Box 1445, St. Laurent,
Quebec, Canada H4L 4Z1, with "Made In U.S.A/Printed In
Canada" on the artwork.

The 2005 releases have Sony BMG's address and nothing for
Madacy, with "Made In U.S.A/Printed In Canada" on the
artwork.

Doesn't seem like much of a company...

I think the main question that Pat needs to answer is if these are import CDs or not. For instance, amazon.com typically specifies in their listing if a CD is an import. I don't see an import label for any of the volumes in the series (although I didn't check every single disc).

Also, I seem to recall some folks say they've seen these volumes in retail/department stores like Walmart that would not normally carry import CDs. I think it's a pretty safe bet that all of these discs are domestic releases.

Even if they have a Canadian address, that shouldn't automatically disqualify them for database inclusion. As we know, early CDs were all made in Japan, and therefore would technically have been imported. Despite this fact, those CDs were made specifically for release in the US. A true import CD, by contrast, is one that was not designated to be released for sale in the US.

I know there are official rules for inclusion, but I say let's add them if they have some exclusive single versions.

Pat's criteria for database inclusion is that the CD must be a full-length disc released for sale in the United States. There may be some exceptions, such as TV-only offers, but for the most part it's pretty complete.

Thanks, Aaron. He explained that to me once before, when coincidentally I was asking why a Rock On CD wasn't in the database! It sounds like the home base of this company is somewhat unclear and some (if not all) of the CDs have been for sale in the U.S. (For example, I purchased all of my early editions of the Rock On series at local Target and Media Play stores). I'm not sure we'll be able to figure out the exact point of origin of these CDs, but we know they were sold in US stores and not sold as imports.
