Sorry if this was covered here before.

I bought the Swag cd 'Catch-All' soon after it came out. Now, this 
friend of mine - who is a big Cheap Trick fan - bought one too, same 
label, same catalog number (YEP 2023). Then, to our surprise, his cd is 
very different from mine. He got that mostly because of  Tom Petersson, 
but for some reason his edition has very little of Tom on it. There is a 
mention of Tom as one of the writers of three songs and that seems to be 
all. It's like he was erased from the album. The insert photo was 
replaced by another without him. His name was erased from the line up on 
the back cover. The comments on tracks where he played were rewritten. 
On 'You' the new comments say 'Todd Rundgren guests on bass'. Even parts 
of the front cover (like Tom with a gun on Dream Police) have been hidden.

I presume that some kind of contractual problem might have caused this.

I still didn't listen to this new edition, but just by looking at the 
whole thing I suspect that even a 'Ozzy style' bass re-recording thing 
might have happened on tracks were Tom originally played.

Would someone please help me clarify this?

Thanks!

Rafael.
