I've got a cassette copy of Who's Next with two sleeves.

I bought a copy of Elvis Presley's -Tomorrow is a Long Time- compilation which sported the title and design of another Elvis CD, -Burning Love-, on the disc itself (both were issued by RCA at the same time in 1999). Right music, though.

I ordered a copy of Ghost's Temple Stone and got Toploader's Onka's Big Moca instead. Completely redefined my musical boundaries.

How tight could you boundaries have been if you were buying a Ghost album?

I once bought a used copy of Skinny Puppy's "Brap" that had an Ashley McIsaac disc inside too. Actually, that was kinda troubling.

I once bought an Autechre CD on the premise that there'd be good music inside...

I bought a used (I know, not the same) vinyl copy of Physical Graffiti and along with the 2 LPs, there was also an LP of Led Zeppelin III.

Bought the Erol Alkan mix album and got two copies of the (far, far superior) disc 2. Sent it back for a replacement copy but I like to think the label shared my opinion.

my copy of the first ripe 7" had three copies of the sleeve inside it. i think i must have used one as a poster because there's only two in there now.

Nothing is going to top the copy of Led Zeppelin II I found after I got home with my copy of Whipped Cream and Other Delights. I can only imagine the backstory behind that one.
