the poster is 4x the size of a CD cover, nothing too big or flashy, just the underwater picture that is in the sleeve.

you bought the cd? cuz the poster did not come with the lp. just cd. sounds like we can loosely define poster though. he, he (shout out thanks dave790 for describing)

it just about passes as a poster. acumas you mean to say you don't have the lyrics then either? cos they're on the back of the fold-out 'poster'.

My cd came with the "mini-poster".

It's located on the inside on the left hand side of the packaging.

So on the open end of the left holds the poster, and on the right holds the cd.

The poster is smallish. It has the famous Ricky Powell psychedelic pool shot with Adrock's mouth against the glass (man, that sounds dirty) and the lyrics are on the other side of the poster

Hope that helps.

Yeah, I figured if it would be anywhere it would be in that left slot, but it wasn't in my copy. That sucks.

Damn. You got gaffled.

yup. so to ram the bread knife up my ass a little more, i bought another copy this afternoon, and it had the poster just where it should be. i remember opening the gaffled copy and thinking, "why did they leave the left side open with nothing in it. and where's the fold out poster? must be the cover itself." i was thinking that the left pocket might be a good place to stash your weed ... well, the hard-pressed Mexican import at least.

speaking of packaging, i hope they go all out on this next one. maybe include some patches, 3D Tadlock glasses ... sumin' sumin'.
