Gold (8)

Profile:

"Gold" is a series of two-disc compilation albums under the umbrella of Universal Music Group. Some include tracks licensed from non-Universal labels.

This series was released in the US, Canada, Europe, Ukraine (e.g. Grover Washington Jr.), Thailand (e.g. KISS) and Australia.

Most releases are two compact disc compilations. A few compilations have also been released as DVDs (e.g. Kool & The Gang) and digital s. Several titles are retitled and repackaged versions of previously-released compilations (e.g. Marvin Gaye and Barry White).

Most, if not all, of the albums share a common layout, with a photograph of the artist followed by a gold bar. The gold vertical line near the right hand side, the artist's name on the left of the gold line, and "Gold" on the right. Earlier ''Gold'' series compilations had a design based on that of ABBA Gold and releases such as the compilations for The Carpenters Gold. Unlike were the case for Etta James | Gold.

Most of the earliest CDs in this series were released on the Hip-O Records imprint.

    Releases on this series sound really good but the packaging is flimsy.
