Release dates have varied for eons.

In 1974 I ordered a Gentle Giant record from the UK and got it several weeks before the US release. And it sounded tons better ! The oil 'crisis' at the time caused many labels to use shitty vinyl and the Europeans/UK used a higher quality mixture, so I bought MOSTLY imported records around that time.
