I just picked up some new CDs today, one of which was a double set with a neat shiny-fabric cover. It's kind of like a bound book. The album was tosca - dehli 9, which, musically, was a bit of a disappointment for me. But the packaging and coverwork is pretty damn cool. So what are some of the best covers and packaging/extras you've seen?
Some others I like:
The Grassy Knoll - III: Comes with a durable plastic wrap on the outside, and is a three-page foldout paper type CD case. The coolest thing about this one is that they have an industrial size rubber band binding the case together, with "the grassy knoll III" imprinted on it.
Pizzicato Five - The Sound of Music: Comes in a plastic sleeve that you slide out, revealing a paper foldout style case. The plastic sleeve is clear, and has the album title printed on it in silver, which shows quite nicely against the white paper background. An extra incentive with this CD is that P5 included a "carte pizzicato" fan club card that looks like a credit card. Keen!
Buena Vista Social Club: Jewel case comes in a paper sleeve along with a gargantuan booklet, complete with translations and some great pictures.
