RE: Summer In Paradise (Scans of UK and US Versions, Including Liner Notes)

[Freddie French-Pounce]

The UK version, bar the remixes, had drastic packaging downgrades. From the nice 'Eco-Pak' to a standard jewel case, even the artwork sufferred.

Right click images and 'View Image' for full size images.

The UK cover fold out:


UK CD Left, US Right


UK Rear Insert (Note how the track times are the same as the US ones!)


US Cover Fold 1


US Cover Fold 2


US Poster (sorry about the poor edit, Its not an easy size to scan!)

This was meant to go in the summer in paradise topic http://smileysmile.net/board/index.php/topic,11017.0.html, but for some reason it posted as a new topic. Is this rectifyable?

Thanks for sharing all this, I had never read Mike's liner notes before. Seems he took this record quite seriously.

Personally I think it really helps to appreciate the overall concept of SIP.

He's very complimentary of Al's voice when he mentions him.
