The poster which is nicely framed on my living room wall has inconsistencies:

  1. Blue Monday 95 isn't the CD single cover
  2. True Faith 94 is omitted
  3. If you are gonna put EGG on there put Murder too cos EGG wasn't a UK single
  4. Get the EGG cover right. ie: :egg:
  5. Spooky cover is the Z case and not the CD single

arse! :banghead:

Is it the same as http://www.wmuk-apache.co.uk:88/neworder/ or http://www.pushposters.co.uk/cgi/pcart/showitem.cgi?item=a13204 or is it the HMV one which is supposed to be winging its way to me?

I pointed out the EGG one from the official Singles site weeks ago and the mistake is repeated in the CD booklet. I'm not bothered about the Z cover for Spooky, you could argue that multi-Louie isn't the original cover of Round and Round but the 3" CD single & 12" remix. The 7" is blue Louie on a salmon pink background and the original 12" is blue with an orange outline on blue.

Maybe they just kept the cover to what was on Singles?

Closer to the apache one but with EGG and Procession reversed. I think it may be the HMV one

So it's this one? ebay

Didn't realise BM95 was on there. Would have loved to see Murder on there, one of my favourites, esp as BM95 is there when it's not on the Singles compilation.

I'll confirm if it's the HMV on when I receive mine. I ordered the pushposters one cos I gave up on HMV and wasn't prepared to go to ebay prices.

I love the poster and will be getting it framed dispite the inconsistencies. if you asked saville why this was done he would probably come out with some bollocks about tonal balance and other arty farty stuff.

there are other ones on ebay, but as far as I can see they are all from HMV

Received the following email from HMV today - Still hopeful of receiving the poster pre 2006/or before next NO best of, whichever comes first!!!!

The posters have arrived, but we are awaiting packaging, so they can be sent out without the risk of being damaged in the post. Apologies for any inconvenience caused. Lisa Mist Customer Service HMV.co.uk
