Blog : Jalopy Jones Album

Jalopy Jones is the latest musician changing the concept of an album with the advent of digital distribution.

This project is an exercise which stemmed from frustration with how many versions of an album are released due to the ease of distribution through digital means. Taking the concept that a single album can be repackaged 20 times and sold as something different each time, and stretching it to an extreme.

This box set is Jalopy's new album. 50 versions of the same album, or rather, 50 experiences of the album, recorded at 50 different venues of the introductory tour.

Each sleeve is hand-made, with the artwork consisting of a line-drawing representation of the venue. Capturing the impression of the stage of building for each place.
