Some Intinct releases just have a slip-over removable band with
information, the rest of the packaging is totally clear - Jimpster's
Martian Arts, Jammin' Unit's Deaf, Dub and Blind ...

Don't judge the book by its cover? Lots of covers don't proclaim
the sound of the contained music. Could you tell from the Black
Dog's 'Spanners' cover what the music sounds like? Or maybe
SAW 2?

The very obnoxious and vexing "hidden track" trick. Been done
before. Notably Brian Eno/Jah Wobble "Spinner" - there is a 5
minute gap between the last listed track and then another 8+1/2
min track follows unexpectedly after five mins of total silence.
And so?
