"Alternative" Cover

That supposed "Alternative" cover isn't from any Japanese CD release -- but from a series of blue and orange Blue Note covers released in Spain in the mid-90's. A quick search on Discogs.org shows the exact TOCJ release in the caption is actually brown, like the original...

The blue and orange one is from Spain (and from 1998, not 1995)...

AND, I would argue that the blue and orange cover is really just the way a really cheap Spanish reissue program decided to do several Blue Note albums on CD in the late 90's -- and is really of no consequence (and the alternative cover shouldn't even be shown at all on this page).

This Spanish series really bastardized a whole bunch of Blue Note covers, but also a few non-BN covers too (of albums later reissued by Blue Note). The entire blue and orange series can be seen here...
