Captain Beefheart And His Magic Band
It Comes To You In A Plain Brown Wrapper

Album US 2008 on Sundazed Music label
Rock and Blues (Blues Rock, Jazz-Rock, Avant-garde)

"All selections previously unavailable on vinyl" appears after the credits on the outer wrapper of this release, which was retailed as a 'Limited Edition'. Packaged in a heavyweight oatmeal paper wrapper, overlapped at the back and hand-fastened by a strip of shiny brown packing tape. The wrapper is overprinted with black title & track list text, whilst the illustration is navy blue. Into this wrapper 'tube' slides the gatefold sleeve. The sleeve is full-color varnish-print finished, with the cover shot oriented 90 degrees and overlapping onto back - being a full-length photo of Vliet playing his musette. The inside spread has a similar shot and a self-portrait sketch of John French to accompany his extensive liner notes. Vinyl has pale yellow labels with tracks in hand-written style and discs numbered A, B, C, D.
