The Rolling Stones Europe 73(VGP 011 V5)

The Rolling Stones
Europe 73
Vinyl Gang Product [VGP-011]

Foret Nationale, Brussels, Belgium, October 17, 1973 1st show
Wembley Empire Pool, London, September 9, 1973 (*)

Lineage: Original CD --> EAC --> WAV --> FLAC FRONTEND (LEVEL 8) --> FLAC

This is Gold edition Cd which is also 5th edition. Or is it?

Here are the identifiers for the 5th edition (according "Black Book") and how they match to my CD:

1) Matrix number VGP-011 516639: MATCH
2) Pressed on Gold CD: MATCH
3) The 35 seconds intro recorded as track 1: MATCH
4) Total time is 74:22: MATCH
5) There are pictures of CD labels of every edition and they are all different: MATCH
6) There are pictures of back covers of every edition and they are all different: NO MATCH !!!
   My disc has same back cover than 4th edition (according to BB).

So what edition this is? I think it IS 5th edition with new (=old) back cover. It wasn't uncommon that VGP
re-released their old CD's with new covers.

The newest edition (and also the last) has released in last year (2004) and I have that one too,
but it is only in CDR so I cannot verify the matrix number and other identifiers.

Anyway here it is. Do share your opinions about it.
