Pet Shop Boys "Release" - As with all Pet Shop Boys' releases, the production / design has to be bigger than the last one.

Johhny Cash "The Man, His World, His Music" - This DVD released by Sanctuary Records was a TV show in the 1970's. Liner notes by Colin Escott. Oversaw the production of the release.
Blues Explosion "Damage" - When signed to Sanctuary, the band wanted to be called "Blues Explosion," not "Jon Spencer Blues Explosion." So the CD Package had to be more of a statement.

Printed by Shorewood.
