Since you are all getting anal about release dates ...release dates where? ...North America? Canada? First world wide release? some albums where not released in North America for months or a year after the release in a foreign market. Is there wiggle room here? Knowing you guys i imagine NOT!

And with regard to release dates on singles, i think that some exceptions must be made as there where lots of songs that where released as singles or b sides and only found their way onto records or comps later in life. We would be agreed that the single as a pre-album-release teaser is out though.
