three first albums on picture disc?!

[cyanopsis]

This site (http://www.vinylnet.de/index.htm) claims to sell the first three albums on picture vinyl. I got the link from www.gemm.com, which sells a lot of different edition CDs and LPs. Most of us have heard the rumoured Orchid Picture Disc that was supposed to have been manufactured when the album first came out (Mike talks about this in an early interview), though none have actually seen it.

However, I belive this German retailer have listed the more common (and ugly) vinyl reprints of the albums. Anyone aquainted?

edit: use "search" by the way.

I got the other day Orchid, Morningrise, MAYH and Deliverance as picture LPs from amazon, each for €16 ltd ed. of 2000 copies. I ordered a Still Life normal LP for something like €6!

*Just thinking about the Ebay fever, and making some money out of them in some few months' / years' time, he he*

Don't know if it's anything to do with it, but candlelight records have the Orchid and Morningrise picture LPs listed. Also selling Night and the Silent Water ringtones.

Whoa, that looks über sexy.

I thought the first three albums on vinyl were poopy?

the original picture discs are on ebay right now actually.

I see they have put on the bonus tracks! Lovely :-(

It's a normal LP but with a picture on top of the whole surface of the record, like the album cover or something like that.
