Wee Tam and The Big Huge 15 Years, 11 Months ago Karma: 0  
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.

Front cover (main) image of VICP-5442,3,4 : Emerson, Lake + Palmer : First True Japanese Mini LP Rock Release
VICP-5442,3,4 : 1994-09-21

The first three Emerson Lake and Palmer albums (self titled, Tarkus and Pictures at an Exhibition) are arguably the first true Rock Mini LPs. They were released on 21st September 1994.

These had been preceded by a much earlier Lotus and a US release of some Rolling Stones albums repackaged for Japan a few short months before these. Neither of these earlier releases was true to the original vinyl although the Stones came close.

The earliest true Minis were two series of MCA Jazz releases from March 1994 (MVCZ-26 to MVCZ-45) including this example: Death and The Flower.

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".

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."

Home made box featuring art work from Queen's "A Night At The Opera". Images for this box were anonymously donated to the MiniLPs site along with the assurance that only a few of these were made for close friends.
Front cover (main) image of DU-SP146.2 : Bowie, David : Space Oddity Box
DU-SP146.2 : 2007-03-07

This box was issued by Disk Union as part of the 3rd of their 3 box releases in the early 2007. You did not need to buy boxes one (Ziggy Stardust Box and Promo Obis) or two (Low Box and Promo Obis) in order to receive the Space Oddity Box. It came with Let's Dance Box and Promo Obis.
