David Ayers Posted October 23, 2013 Report Posted October 23, 2013 (edited) I recently bought the Lloyd/Moran album from an amazon seller. It arrived without a cardboard sleeve but that was no problem. Then I notice the booklet is a simple foldover, and when I check online I see there is (as usual) a multi-page booklet for this album. One of the photos from the 'proper' booklet appears on the inside of the rear tray insert. The CD itself has 'universal' on the inner rim but not the reference to the plant and place of manufacture normally found. I have never seen one of these before but I conclude it is legitimate, perhaps with a small production economy to fit some local market (other than UK etc). Anyone seen this kind of issue? Surprised it is the first I've seen. Edited October 23, 2013 by David Ayers Quote
king ubu Posted October 23, 2013 Report Posted October 23, 2013 It's not a promo? Does ECM always mark promos? I've not seen any such thing for recent discs ... with olders, there's often just such a small cover, also now and then a three or four part "one-page" thingie, but this looks indeed different! Quote
David Ayers Posted October 23, 2013 Author Report Posted October 23, 2013 It is not marked promo, and in any case I doubt for a promo anyone would go to the trouble of editing down an existing booklet, let alone creating a new inner tray image. Quote
mjazzg Posted October 23, 2013 Report Posted October 23, 2013 Never seen the like before. Is the music any good? Quote
David Ayers Posted October 23, 2013 Author Report Posted October 23, 2013 Never seen the like before. Is the music any good? I love late Lloyd and while it is weird to hear him cover standards and 'pop' tunes the fleet and fast passagework is, as ever, a delight. And Moran is no slouch! Quote
king ubu Posted October 23, 2013 Report Posted October 23, 2013 Never seen the like before. Is the music any good? It's been pared down to mono, 96 kbs Quote

Somehow it slipped by me. I'm with you on late Lloyd and may have to redress the situation forthwith - maybe I'll get an even slimmer version.... Quote
