About CD+Graphics

During the late 1980's Warner Brothers (as Warner New Media) experimented with a method of embedding graphics information on music CDs.  One of the few players to actually support it was the failed Philips CD-Interactive player, which I owned.  It came with the CD+G sampler pictured above and led to me collecting a few of the CDs from which this collection had pulled songs.  Notably by Fleetwood Mac, and Talking Heads.  I recently started a project to collect all of the CD+G titles released at that time and have acquired all but a few.  Eventually got in touch with Orlando who has all but a few.  This site will document what we've learned about how to identify them (many have been reissued several times since without the CD+G data).

Comprehensive data on each release and how to identify the versions of each disc that have graphics are available in the CD+G Discography.

Information on computer software that can be used to view/extract CD+G information is on the Software page.
