Re: some question about 4ad compliation

thank you cj!!!i dont know what are they but i really got one (2cd) of them, the cover is a hand with a ring which seized half of the area and another half with the betiful front printed" sound of 4ad" and the track released as band, such as cocteau,dead can dance,the the, birthday party, clan of xymox, swallow,lush,his name is alive,micheal brook,pale saint, spirea x,ect...and a freind of mine think 4ad had never release and compliation like that and think that should be a bootlegs, but i dont think so coz the graphic design appears to at 23 envelope. and the i konw there is only one track from cocteau twins in Part 1: spangle maker. and only one from lush: delux, and one from his name is alive: are we still maried...so i hope there could be more people as kind as you give me more commment about that:)     iso with lots of thanks

came up on ebay awhile back and I was so intrigued that I saved the picture.  
Unfortunately I got rid of the accompanying info on it, so the rest is from 
memory.

The picture shows a black cardboard CD wraparound.  Printed across the 
wraparound are the bands Lush, Dead Can Dance, Pixies, and Cocteau Twins.
I seem to remember that this was a promotional item which included one album 
by each of the bands listed.  By the fold in the wraparound I would guess 
that the CDs were housed in paper or cardboard sleeves and not jewel cases.

I have no idea where it was made, if it's legit, how many were made, why they 
were sent out, or what this item smells like.  Each of the bands DID release 
material in 1990, so it could be from around that time.  In which case I 
doubt it's US since all the bands were licensed here and there at that time - 
Lush with Reprise, Cocteau Twins with Capitol, Pixies with Elektra, and DCD 
didn't even have any American releases at that time.  Though I think all of 
them sleep under the Warner house roof.  I'm sure someone on the 4AD 
messageboard could comment more on it.
