James Taylor "Sweet Baby James"/"Mud Slide Slim" 16 Years ago Karma: 0  
I have seen these posted as Japanese Mini LP CDs. The source is from Japan. I had requested confirmation that these were authentic Japanese Mini LP CDs but did not receive a response. Does anyone know if these two titles were ever released in this format in Japan?

Re:James Taylor "Sweet Baby James"/"Mud Slide Slim 16 Years ago Karma: 0  
Thanks for the information. I appreciate it. This little site has gotten expensive for me. I think since December of 2007 when I first found this site I have made near 50 Mini LP CD purchases. Some have been very cool. I have made two mistakes, first on a Russian knock-off of Rubber Soul and second on a T Rex Electric Warrior CD that was actually packaged in a FULL SIZE album cover.

I am awaiting some of the new Van Morrison releases along with The Clash London Calling. I have my eyes on the James Taylor titles along with an Eric Clapton. Cheapest find was a Miles Davis Seven Steps To Heaven Mini at a local CD store for $7.99. I may have paid too much for a sealed copy of Pink Floyd, Wish You Were Here ($102) but I got it.

Front cover (main) image of SONY-BECK : Beck, Jeff : Feed Beck Amplifier Box
SONY-BECK : 2005-02-23

This unique and beautiful clam-shell style promo box contains ten Jeff Beck mini lp cds and has room to fit two more mini LPs. When flipped open, the inside of the box resembles a guitar amplifier.

Rush-Sector-1 : 2011-11-21
Box 1 from a 3 boxes set. Each box is numbered. These are official releases by Universal Music. Each box set has 5 cds and 1 DVD. Each cd is in a replica mini LP sleeve. The DVD is in Surround sound. Each sliding box has a picture from 1 member of the band. On top of the boxes, you find part of the logo that is on the inside of the 2112 cd. Once you put the 3 boxes one beside another, you have the complete logo.

VICP-63335 : 2006-02-22
English language version of the earlier native Italian "L'Isola di niente" on ELP's Manticore label. As with the earlier English rehash of PFM's "Per un amico" the lyrics were for the most part re-written (not translated) by Pete Sinfield of King Crimson.
 
Front cover (main) image of Caroline-2008 : Various Artists : Caroline Records 2009 US Releases
Caroline-2008 : 2008-08-05

In late 2008 Caroline Records in the USA released a number of albums by the following artists: UFO, Jethro Tull, Quicksilver Messenger, Brian Eno, Roxy Music, The Raspberries, Kate Bush, Blondie, The Band, Red Hot Chili Peppers and Van Der Graaf Generator (full list below).

Unlike the suspect Universal releases these are 100% Japanese. The only difference between these and the Japanese (apart from being as much as 50% cheaper) is a sticker on the bar code of the obi.

As at March 2009 most of these are still available at Amazon.

Die Cut Covers :

Die cutting of the cover image or inserts is probably the most common technique employed to create gimmick covers. It's probably also in most cases the cheapest.

There are thousands of die cut covers. Here are a few of the more popular and best known releases.
