Album titles I dream of coming in mini lps !!! 13 Years, 11 Months ago Karma: 0  
Quite a bunch of artist\titles are not made in Japan minis so far !!! For instance, I would dream of having in minis: the first Joni Mitchell releases, Fad Gadget (aka Frank Tovey), The Roches sisters, YAZ, a lot of ECM recordings like Eberhard Weber, Terje Rypdal, etc. My most strong wish is to see Asmus Tietchens four titles that were made on German label Sky Records. Why not 'A clockwork orange' score in mini lp ? Wow !! Tell us what are your crazy wishes !!!

Easy - Neil Young, Frank Sinatra's Capitol albums, Captain Beefheart (Just imagine how cool "Trout Mask Replica" would look!), Alice Cooper, The Turtles, George Harrison, Ringo Starr (why did they cancel that last lot?), the rest of the Apple albums (including Elephant's Memory, El Topo, etc) the rest of the Dylan titles and Van Morrison (bet they were cancelled at his insistence!), oh and my new album "Honeytrap" by "David Fisher" only available from itunes at the moment but hopefully to receive a mini LP release (any ideas how to get the sleeves printed for someone in the UK? None of the manufacturers I have spoken to have ever heard of mini LPs!) Agree about Joni Mitchell - what about Rickie Lee Jones for that matter... the list is endless.

You're right David about Neil Young (Harvest, After the Gold Rush). Trout Mask Replica , wow ! (I forgot about that one...). Kraftwerk is unavailable too but I have their 'Catalog' which is quite neat but no mini lp...

What about the swiss group 'Yello' ?

I'd love to have mini-lp sleeves for the following:

Claudine Longet
Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66
Gino Vannelli
Rita Coolidge (later A&M recordings)
Deniece Williams

I'd love to have a box for the upcoming Joni Mitchell reissues...

Front cover (main) image of WPCR-14304 : Cooper, Alice : Billion Dollar Babies
WPCR-14304 : 2011-12-21
Warner Music Japan : Cardboard sleeve (mini LP) reissue from Alice Cooper featuring the high-fidelity SHM-CD format (compatible with standard CD players) and 2011 remastering. The cardboard sleeve features double jacket with an inner bag and WB moss green label. Comes with a billion-dollar bill (reprint), a description, and lyrics. Part of a twelve-album Alice Cooper SHM-CD cardboard sleeve reissue series featuring albums "Pretties For You," "Easy Action," "Love It To Death," "Killer," "Schools's Out," "Billion Dollar Babies," "Muscle Of Love," "Welcome To My Nightmare," "Goes To Hell," "Lace And Whiskey," "The Alice Cooper Show," and "From The Inside."
Front cover (main) image of MHCP-1002 : Santana : Lotus
MHCP-1002 : 2006-06-07

Recorded in early July 1973 this album took nearly a year to make it to streets.

One of the most elaborate record covers ever produced and probably the most elaborate so far to make it to mini LP release. It is nearly impossible to capture the splendour of this on a web site but we shall try...

 
Front cover (main) image of DU-BOX226L : Schulze, Klaus : Timewind Box
DU-BOX226L : 2008-02-22
Big box to enclose the previous 3 slipcase promoboxes released by Disk Union to hold a total of 16 albums.
Front cover (main) image of POCP-9194 to POCP-9208 & 9212/3 : Who (The) : POCP Target Obi Series
POCP-9194 to POCP-9208 & 9212/3 : 1999-09-29
The first edition of the first series of mini LPs for the Who (target obis) came with inserts that were pre-punched. A binder and T-Shirt accompanied the release. It is not clear how these were obtained but it seems likely that the small yellow coupon on the obi would have been snipped off and the folder at least was awarded on surrendering the full set of coupons.
 
Front cover (main) image of UICY-93013-38 : Rolling Stones (The) : In the 60's
UICY-93013-38 : 2006-03-16

2006 (reprinted at least once) release of Stones albums from the earliest days up to 1975. Does not include the early 70s releases.

Each album included a collector card. The backs of the cards, when laid side by side, formed the cover image of "Their Satanic Majesties Request".

Front cover (main) image of EMICD-11228 : Pink Floyd : Oh By The Way: European Box Set
EMICD-11228 : 2007-11-26

16 CD box set - being 14 studio albums including 2 doubles.

According to Pink Floyd Brain Damage site there were a few glitches with this release, the most notable being a misprinting of the inner bag for the second CD in "The Wall".

There are also cases of an album being missed out and duplicates in their places.

The later Japanese release of this box set is basically identical to this box set.

Poor quality fakes exist for this set - more details below.

The original Japanese individual releases are regarded as being of a much higher quality to either of these box sets.

You can see a YouTube video of this set on the videos page.
