yes we did, the album art and notes/photos were a big part of the music buying experience when i was a kid. i hated moving on to cassettes and then CD's. lying on your bed listening to the music, holding the cover, looking at the cover art, reading the lyrics - big part of being a music fan/collector in the days of vinyl. very much like buying a hard cover book versus buying a digital version - the sense of touch, smell, actually bonding physically/emotionally with the product. makes me sad that that is disappearing.
