All the below are worth seeking for the music, sleeves or both. Mostly both. In fact, all of them. Most of the albums are available, most of the singles are not - try the digital platforms if you must. The best way to enjoy 4AD releases is to haul yourself to your nearest record shop and dig those crates - then admire the sleeve as you spin the vinyl. Marvellous.
Special mention goes to those with a * - records I seriously couldn't live without...
