Typos on CD Inserts


Recommended Posts

What are the most egregious spelling mistakes on CDs?

I had the reissue of W.A.S.P.'s "The Last Command". But the CD spine was spelled incorrectly as "The Last Comand". If I remember correctly, it was the Castle Records reissue.

Any other notable fuck-ups?

One that initially comes to mind for me is a 2014 cd re-issue of King Kobra's Ready to Strike album.  It is one of those vinyl replica style cds and on the spine the band name is displayed incorrectly as King Cobra.  The same typo of the band name shows on the label side of the cd itself as well.

Only thing that comes to mind is the Dwarves album Blood Guts and Pussy cd that has a song title on the disc but the song isnt on the album. Can't remember what the song is at the moment however... Fuck You Up and Get High maybe.

    • I'm happy the do different stuff. Otherwise what they do would get old. Tesla proved how easy it is to make and album have a def Lep feel. And I loved that album, as a one off. And I loved slang as well. Variety is the spice of life 😁
    • Ohh nice,hoping the new recent singles will be on this one.
    • New album out September 20th through Frontiers.
    • I agree. Ultimately, I think bands become sort of what they "really" want to become and move toward the "mean" so to speak.  Leppard always said that they wanted to be like Queen in that they weren't constrained by having to make certain types of songs.  It was probably that desire to go outside the box that allowed Pyromania and Hysteria to happen in the first place.   And it's probably what's caused them to jump around with different style songs throughout the years.  I think it would've happened that way regardless.   Who knows though.  Maybe Steve would've influenced things a little bit as his Led Zep and Jimmy Page influences might've trickled in more.  And who knows what could've happened if Mutt stuck around for a couple more albums too....he was probably the most important piece in the puzzle.  They were already changing lanes though even with Steve and Mutt in the fold.  I think they've still shown they're capable of doing more classic sounding stuff if they want to with songs like Promises, Paper Sun, Dangerous, Take What You Want, etc being a few examples.    Either way, I'm just happy they've kept it going for nearly 50 years.  It has to be tough staying inspired and coming up with new song ideas for that long so that's kind of why I think the course they took would've naturally happened either way.
