remember CDs?

I remember being fourteen and going through my brother's stack of CDs, thinking to myself how cool it was that someone's entire job was to make music look pretty. Now most of us download everything, and there's minimal contact with music packaging. That's sad.

I loved this CD created by Rethink for jazz bassist (and writer) Chris Tarry because it begs to be touched. Like I feel the need to purchase it and have it for myself. The beautiful illustrations and thoughtful details (blue metal foil!) make a strong case for THE OBJECT.
