I know the snippets were taken off from iTunes, but now they're back up again. Anyone know when that happened?

I think the artwork, particularly of the super deluxe box set, is beautiful.  I love the colours and the rusty-looking effect on the vinyl sleeves - makes me almost want to buy it!   ;)

Like the artwork, but a bit Ragpicker's Dream redux?

Nice! This album has Mark's best artwork to date, in my opinion. Surprised by the GB sticker, though, since many of the songs have such a southern (US) feeling. I expected that van to be parked somewhere down in Alabama ...

Funny how tastes differ because not only do I think this is Mark's worst artwork to date but I think it's possibly the worst of anyone!  Dated, unoriginal, uninspiring, boring, unattractive and not even practical. Eeew, yuk!

I take it you don't like it then, dmg!    ;D

I got my message across then!

I was just thinking that upon it's release and when it's in the record shops on the new releases wall, will it really stand out?  I don't think so, and the cover wouldn't inspire me to buy it if I weren't a fan either.

The autumn colours and broken-down van suggest to me words like weary, fatigued, restful, sedate, dilapidated...  Words that would entice me to buy would be exactly the opposite of these adjectives but that cover just puts the wrong words into my mind and isn't really a representation of the album contents either.

This time I have to say I love the artwork. I'm very surprised because usually Salvador Lavado's work is a disaster.
That one is very elegant and very very inspiring. It has a great potential for the upcoming live recording artworks.  ;)

Those soundclOud samples are great. I only wonder why they choose this samples and not the whole cd.

Hahaha, how funny. But no matter how much we disagree: Rest assured this can't possibly be the worst art work ever. Just have a look at Dylan's newest, and you'll know why!  :lol

Record labels usually don't give away whole records for free

I mean samples fr

It's not great but it's much better than MK's! 

I do hope SD isn't looking in. :-X  No offence if you are, it's just my taste!
