Just had a quick look and i have 7 diff copies of ziggy,rca ,ryko emi,etc 8 when the new one arrives.was just wondering who has the most diff copies and how many. i am guessing someone must have nearer 20 with promos etc.

I have the mini japanese vinyl
AU20 GOLD Ryko
Ordinary Ryko
EMI 1999
RCA
30th Anniversary
Vinyl ( one just out )
New CD just out
RCA Cassette

So that's 9 in total.

I may have another one around I'm not sure? But definitely 8 copies immediately to mind.

Mine's number 2543 Ant.
I prefer the original but maybe it's just a case of familiarity.

Thinking about it,when I got my Motion pic cd home,I was horrified that the cd's were silver and not red.Binned them and bought proper red ones the next day.The silvers could have been rare for all I know.

eh
let's see, 1,2,3,4, 23...yep
i have one
i was afraid that there weren't enough for all of us so...

what a beautiful thread, tell the others.

Ah - I forgot about the mini vinyl ZS too.

Love how ant flys off the handle.

"Mine's number 2543 Ant. "

Just got the new one. FFS.

Also I forgot I had the SACD and a 1996 japanese version of the Ryko but sold them for big bucks.

I have

RCA vinyl from 1973
RCA cd from 1983
Emi first CD
EMI 1999 cd
EMI 30 th cd
EMI 40th cd
EMT 40 th Vinyl and DVD
and

did anyone have the ryko lp on clear vinyl?

Sadly, that was the only clear ryko I didn't get.

Original RCA Vinyl
Original RCA Cassette
Japanese RCA Vinyl
Mobile Fidelity Master Recording Vinyl
EMI 1999 CD
30th Anniversary CD

Now on order;

40th Anniversary CD
40th Anniversary Vinyl

yeah it was certainly harder to locate for some reason hm
as was david live.

...but wanted to say that I have:
2 German gatesleeve LPs
and
an 8-track that I got plently of use from back in the day (on an RCA stereo system, no less!)

I've got 4 Gem/pre-Mainman pressings, 2 Mainman 1st pressings and a German gatefold. Just thinking about it, there must be at least 30 different official pressings of this now. It was something like 24 the last time I looked. Imagine having 30 different albums all with the same music!!

Mist.

"Before you diagnose yourself with depression or low self-esteem, first make sure that you are not, in fact, simply surrounded by assholes." - William Gibson.

And someone will have them all I'm sure Michael!

I have the following....

1972 original UK pressing.
1985 RCA CD
1980's vinyl re-issue.
Rykodisc 1990 Ziggy PROMO LP/CD/Press Kit.
Ryko 1990 CD x 3
EMI 1990 CD x 2
EMI 1990 20th Anny CD in box with 72 page booklet x 3 copies
EMI 1999 re-issue.
EMI 2002 30th.
2007 Japanese mini LP compact disc.
EMI 2012 40th CD.
EMI 2012 40th LP/DVD.

So that is 17 copies of the one album. Sheesh....how sad am I?

Also, anyone else here own the 1990 press kit LP/CD and have the CD in mint condition? My CD got stuck to the plastic slip and is knackered.

I have never seen a press kit with the cd intact, so I'm afraid they are all like that.

27 Ziggy's here:

UK original LP
German gatefold LP
Spanish LP
Italian LP
South African LP
MFSL LP
RYKO promo press kit with cd
1990 EMI LP
UK picture disc
German pirate picture disc
German 2010 pirate issue on yellow vinyl
German 2010 pirate issue on mint green vinyl
German 2010 pirate issue on white vinyl
40th Anniversary LP + DVD

German RCA CD
Ryko CD in box
EMI 1999 CD
30TH Anniversary 2CD
Russian pirate hologram edition CD
Russian pirate mini LP CD
SACD
Japanese mini lp cd issue
Belgian issue in slipcase for 'De Morgen' newspaper
40th anniversary edition

DCC
8-track
Minidisc

thats amazing Maarten.

maarten do you not possess the ltd clear vinyl ryko version?
does anybody else?
i had all the others except this one and david live.
must be pretty scarce.

Nope, don't have that one. I would guess the same number of copies were made of each title, but Ziggy has always been more in demand than other titles.

well i think we have a winner !!!

Of for sure

I think Maarten is most definitely the winner
