Wee Tam and The Big Huge 15 Years, 2 Months ago

I've noticed on the Incredible String Band Spirits 9cd box set, that as well as the official single release of Wee Tam and also The Big Huge. there is a further cd cover included of the original double lp release, (it's the one with the lyrics and illuminated lettering on a white background). What is this does anyone know? Is it as i'm guessing a spare cover to house the 2 cds included in the set? I've just read through the above, hope it makes sense!   |

It´s a Promo Cover released by Disk Union. Is not to hold nothing, only a promo item.
Sometimes when an album has been released with different covers in any place or specially in Japan DU or the maker includes these covers, always as promo items or give aways.
Some of these covers were released for: Jimi Hendrix, Jefferson Airplane, Traffic, Laura Nyro (3, 2 from Sony and 1 from DU), Uriah Heep (3), Springsteen, Atomic Rooster,...

Not for sale. Your only option was to buy the complete boxset from DU or one of their usual resellers at ebay at release time receiving it for free, the same than the box - Disk Union only sells the CDs and the promo boxes, obis or sleeves are a free give away for the people that buys the complete release. Now is a hard to get item, your only chance is ebay.
Quicksilverlove store will be probably your best option to get it.

TOCP-65740 : 2001-06-16 The landmark 1973 album from Pink Floyd. This issue contains all the original inserts plus more. |
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... | | |
DU-BOX045 : 2005-09-28 Tarkus promo box and obis released to accompany the first K2 24 bit release of the first five ELP albums.
The artwork is darker than the album cover. It came with 6 promo obis, 2 for Trilogy.
Some of the images shown here include all but one of the Tarkus Mini LP releases spanning 1994 - 2008 |
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. | | |
hudson-pf01 : 2008-01-01 A unique creation from Kerry Hudson design. Lavishly sculptured and finished, this felt lined wooden box stand holds all regular sized Pink Floyd Mini vinyl LP replica covers along with a selection of DVDs.
The ultimate gift for the Pink Floyd fan who has everything. (The box is currently for sale from the sculptor. Contact details can be found here.)
This was Kerry's second homage to an artist's releases on Mini LP, the first being Hudson Genesis Box Mach I. |
YES-BOX1 : 1998-05-29 This ULTRA RARE promo box has the distinction of being the FIRST EVER Disk Union mini LP Promo Box!! The full title of the box is:YES ORIGINAL JACKET COLLECTION selected from ROGER DEAN WORKS. This box contained five YES mini LP CDs.
