As the most anal retentive d.j (ex d.j. ) perhaps in the world, here is my solution to Brock's question of how not to fuck up record covers, which is 1/2 as important as not marring the vinyl, but still important. Sleeve your record in a plastic outer sleeve in *this* manner: Sleeve the jacket so it drops into the record from the *top*, i.e. opening at the top, jacket drops in. Sleeve the vinyl, in a paper sleeve, *behind* the jacket. Write your bpms or choice tracks/comments etc. on sticker labels on the *outside* on the plastic sleeve. Even if you're not into any of this, this method of sleeving is the *ideal* way to shelve records *spine side out* , library style, without messy plastic sleeves falling all over the place. DJ Spooky releases, with correct titles and dates: August 25th: Object Unknown 12", CD single on Outpost/Geffen, vinyl on Asphodel September 22nd: Riddim Warfare, CD single on Outpost/Geffen, double vinyl on Asphodel merci, Peter =========================================== xxxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx, <also: xxxxx@xxxxxxxx.xxx> Peter Becker - Distribution and Sales/ DJ Pool Asphodel - PO Box 51, Chelsea Station, NY NY 10113 Ph: (212) 604-9362, FAX: (212)604-0783 http://www.asphodel.com ===========================================
