Has anyone taken the plunge on the 15 disc version of LTIA due out on Monday?
Bit too much for me and I personally do not do 5.1, though the DVDA 2 channel maybe worth a spin?

- UK Island variant design, gatefold sleeve

- US stereo Atlantic variant design, gatefold pasted sleeve

- 1977 Argentinean variant design, gatefold sleeve with Spanish language text

- US Atlantic mono promo variant design, stickered pasted gatefold sleeve with 3 replica 'DJ copy monaural Not For Sale' stickers

- Japanese variant sleeve design, gatefold pasted card with die-cut wraparound obi strip

Just doesnt work with Jewel cases :rolleyes:

No sheepskin rug, although once upon a time I had a mock sheepskin lined Levi jacket.

I agree with you about jewel cases not cutting the mustard - they look totally out of place with something like ITCOTCK.

Now I can't quite put a finger on it, but there's something that tells me that ITCOTCK is one of those albums that you like more than just a little.....:eyebrows:

Panagenic ITOTCK sounds better than the pink rim copy I have. 'From tapes approved by Robert Fripp'. Also have ISOP and new Lizard. All excellent on vinyl. Also recommend the KC catalogue on CD/DVDA (24/96) remixed by Steve Wilson.
