Past Perfect International

German reissue label of questionable legitimacy, run by TIM The International Music Company AG. Specialized in issuing recordings from the 1920s, 1930s and 1940s. This label has no connection to Past Perfect. Background Info: At the turn of the century, a German organization, TIM The International Music Company AG, began to package and reissue several of the CTI releases made during the 1990s under a label known as "Past Perfect Silver Line" (or just "Past Perfect" or just "Silver Line"). While the legitimacy of these issues is certainly questionable, the "Past Perfect" nomenclature was misappropriated from a British company that took legal action against the TIM Company, preventing further production and distribution of these CDs, despite the fact that many retailers continue to have stock of these incredibly slipshod compilations. The discs are odd in a number of ways. While they originated from Germany, Japanese writing appears within the discs' "logo". Each disk is budget priced. But all include a glossy slipcase that oddly highlights extremely cheap-looking cover art featuring a cropped black and white photo of the artist.
