What more perfect record to showcase on a Monday than this Blue Monday 'Rewritten' LP with a special 'Sink With Cali' cover. There were 50 of these special covers made way back in 2005. 20 of them contained the green vinyl and 30 the purple vinyl. I wasn't exactly out searching for one of these. I just stumbled across one on eBay and it was listed pretty cheap, so I just figured I'd have it.
I'd seen pictures of this cover before, but until I picked this one up I hadn't realised that the cover was printed on an inside out regular cover. So inside the sleeve you can see the regular artwork:
I hadn't listened to this record for a long time. I'd for gotten how much I liked it. It came out at a weird time and it didn't make a huge impact with me, but it's a solid record for sure. Until I checked the pressing info five minutes ago I'd actually forgotten that Bridge Nine also made a picture disc version of this one. Weird.

It is an odd album. I really like it and have 5 copies of this, but truth be told, I can't remember one song off it.
5 copies?!? How?
Sorry...5 different pressings...not 5 of this particular cover.
Yeah, I figured as much. Just wondered which five you have? Do you have the picture disc?
Ignore me. I just searched for Blue Monday on your blog. That release show sleeve is rad. I kinda want one now...
...and as you pointed out, this Sink With Cali cover is the only one that I'm missing. Now I kind of want it...
