One By One (Foo Fighters Album) - Packaging and Versions

Packaging and Versions

The album artwork was done by Raymond Pettibon, who has worked with punk bands such as Black Flag and The Minutemen. Grohl was introduced to Pettibon by ex-Minutemen bassist Mike Watt and, after visiting his house, decided to hire him for the artwork because "we had to somehow pay tribute to Pettibon as a hero, because his stuff, those images just stuck with me my whole life." Grohl came up with the heart theme used in the booklet and related singles. The album was issued with two different covers, black and white. The first 575,000 units comprised a limited edition with a bonus DVD.

A limited international edition features seven bonus tracks: the outtake "Walking a Line", three live songs, and three covers, The Psychedelic Furs' "Sister Europe", the Ramones' "Danny Says" - with Shiflett on the vocals — and Joe Walsh's "Life of Illusion" - sung by Hawkins. A Norwegian version had an extra album with tracks recorded at the Oslo Spektrum on December 4, 2003. One by One was also issued as a double vinyl LP record, and a DVD-Audio with 5.1 surround sound mixes.

Famous quotes containing the word versions:

    The assumption must be that those who can see value only in tradition, or versions of it, deny man’s ability to adapt to changing circumstances.
