    @flav, i love the ODB covers -- especially "Return..." from the post:

    "The problem was that almost all of the Wu-Tang album art was horrible (ODB's two albums being the only real exceptions)"

    to me the "classic" covers just looked bad in itunes. totally subjective i know, but i feel like there's maybe an abstract correlation between what blue note artists were doing in the 50s compared to wu-tang in the 90s -- something about controlling your own destiny, using the system, etc.

    in a way, yeah, it could be sacrilege. but there are a lot of records i love except for the art, and now that itunes has democratized that aspect of it i don't mind throwing in my two cents.
