Interesting, Reese - it seems the overall EMI did a better marketing job than RCA. Along the same lines I've always wondered if, after the 'whatever' USA response to Tina's Foreign Affair lp and its now-iconic single The Best stalling at #15, Capital decided to concentrate on the Euro market for Turner's future lps [[which, I feel, have a decided Euro-pop sound).
