Radiohead OK Computer - it's nearly ten years old and still the cd-case, despite having been through the wars, still feels it only just came out in the shops.

hang on, though, this isn't seriously a thread about if the cd case is in good nick?

white album

I'm going to interpret this as music that's "timeless" and not how clean the CD/record case looks, because then that only covers crappy music for me.

Orb - Ultraworld
Oval - 94diskont
White Album seconded.

No. Don't be stupid.

let's pause for a minute and think about how the orb's '...ultraworld' hasn't dated ONE LITTLE BIT, OHHHH NO.

I was saying that for some reason the design still looks fresh to me whereas often I'll have an album a couple of weeks and it starts blending in with the background. The design isn't impprtant, so much as the album as a whole is fresh in my mind (e.g. I remember buying it when it came out and interviews with Radiohead on the radio and stuff).

ah, yeh apologies NRQ, my question wasn't very well thought out.

― wogan lenin (dog latin), Tuesday, 26 September 2006 13:59 (nineteen years ago)

i think 'ok computer' has aged well, but i'd not for a second think of it as new.

― EARLY-90S MAN (Enrique), Tuesday, 26 September 2006 14:01 (nineteen years ago)

i like the question actually

particulary now that you've clarified it with the remark " often I'll have an album a couple of weeks and it starts blending in with the background". happens often. it's a pity when you start of with a sparkling new cd that after only a few listens blends into your collection like furniture.

the hell?

j'etais en train d'indiquer que parfois on achete une nouvelle disque qu'apres un certain temps arrive a sembler bien moins interessante que d'autres disques qu'on avait depuis des annees.

― Charlie Howard (the sphinx), Tuesday, 26 September 2006 14:12 (nineteen years ago)

that's what i mean, charlie, yes.

― wogan lenin (dog latin), Tuesday, 26 September 2006 14:35 (nineteen years ago)

i assume you mean the english.
the french is just paraphrasing what i said in english anyway. :)

ugly packaging can unfortunately make a difference to how a cd slots into the collection as well. a nice remastered copy of your favourite sabbath album, for instance, will look a damn sight prettier than an 'original masters' copy converted to disc in 1987.
