i was wondering why Elton John's Sleeping with the Past album is not available on Spotify in Canada. It's available on other streaming platforms.

Thanks

Hey @jnowlan, thanks for reaching out to the Community!

Spotify wants all the world’s music and podcasts available, but availability can vary over time and between countries, depending on the permissions from rights holders.

More info about this can be found here.

Hope this helps!

I have the same question about this album; although we understand availability can vary over time, all of Elton's other albums are available, except for "Sleeping With The Past."My question is about the anomaly of this album's unavailability.

Thanks. MD

Hi there @MJDCrazyWater
 

Most likely the album is not available for streaming due to licensing issues. 

If you tell us the country of your account, we can check if that's the case for sure.

Cheers.

Hey there @MJDCrazyWater, 

Thanks for getting back to us. 

We've checked and we can confirm the album is currently not available in your region. This is due to permissions and distribution from the right holders.

We hope to have all the world’s music and podcasts on Spotify someday, but at the moment, what we have varies over time and between countries by copyright. We add new content every day, so if you can’t find something, it may appear (or reappear) soon. Thanks again for your report.

If anything else comes up, the Community will be here for you.
