How many times after you bought the cd have you sat and perused the cd cover apart from the notes. Its whats on it (in musical terms) that matters, put it in a plain white cover, if it sounds good it gets played.

Actually I find a plain black cover that you can see your reflection on both sides, with no name or title anywhere would be a really great concept. Smiley

Where's the "like" button?
None more black.

Off topic I know, but wasn't 'Wish You Were Here' released in a totally black wrapper? Although I think the record company bottled out and put a sticker on it.

Correct, on both counts.

And The Velvet Underground's White Light/White Heat originally had a black illustration on a black background.  Very hard to make it out on most copies.

To me the new album cover looks like a pastiche of Fleetwood Macs return. There is a definite Mick Fleetwood in Peggy (I won't upset the rest of the band with who I think matches who).
The music needs to be an improvement on recent years too, as FP really don't seem to have been trying very hard of late (On stage at Cropredy this year was a BIG disappointment).

2015 has started badly already... I keep being told I have nothing in my basket, even though I've followed the process through several times.. I'm obviously doing something wrong.  Sad

That's just happened to me too, after (apparently) paying by PayPal. I don't think the PayPal payment went through, though; it hasn't shown up on my account, and I've had no acknowledgement by email. Peculiar ....

Mick, I'm having the same trouble. The Internet gremlins are about today.

I'll try again later. (Maybe on a different PC)

Well, I've just managed it now and have received an email acknowledging the order and a receipt from Paypal.
