No pictures but I always thought it kind of sucked. It certainly doesn't fit anywhere in a normal cd collection. | |

I remember it. There was some kid hanging on to balloons, but it was a sticker placed on the plastic of the LP. Once that plastic came off, so did the sticker. That's all I remember. GeSmi1 Baby, Baby, Baby...what's it going 2 b? | |

It's my favorite LP packaging!! "Just like the sun, the Rainbow Children rise."

I liked the packaging of the ATWIAD CD - it was very economical, in that the longbox (which was the norm back then) doubled as a tri-fold sleeve/lyrics sheet with a little slot in the center for the CD itself, which was housed in a slipcover sleeve (kinda like the Musicology concert CDs) with ATWIAD cover art on it.
It didn't fit very well into a CD collection, but interestingly, the tri-fold sleeve/longbox thingie was tall enough that you could stick it into your vinyl collection, for whatever good that's worth (I guess it made more sense back in '85). I still have my copy of this...the trifold longbox thingie is all tucked away in storage at my mom's house, though I have the disc/slipcover thing w/ my other Prince CDs...the disc itself is still in great shape, though the slipcover ain't aging so well... | |

i still have my long box case! it was too nice to toss.
my favorite bit, though, is the fact that the actual cd is in a soft cloth sleeve...just like the vinyl would have been in a protective sleeve. very smart! [This message was edited Thu May 6 22:14:16 2004 by SassyBritches] | |

GeSmi1 I have the LP and CD....my LP has the sticker on the sleve it didnt dissapear with the wrapping. I love that LP cover, its so bright, maybe why it appealed to me when i was 2 and first saw/heard it | |
