DAVID BOWIE - Aladdin Sane

Item Description

Vinyl, , Indianapolis Pressing, Gatefold
LP Album Stereo

This is the 2nd version of the cover - the first version used, in addition to the standard 4-colour CMYK printing process, specialised inks to achieve the wide colour palette, including the silver on the inner gatefold. This version uses only CMYK, resulting in a different coloured cover. Cover colour variation - rather than Royal Blue, it is cyan, though not as bright as the budget AYL1 reissue. The later AFL1 issue used the same colour balance. See David Bowie - Aladdin Sane for example of the later AFL issue using this cover with an additional sticker on the spine.

Orange labels, with inner sleeve and full colour fan club brochure.
