I'm an avid Bangla music album collector in this hobby since 2012. Having grown up in the "Underground" era of Bangla band music, I took the initiative to archive and upload album artworks. Till now, I've been recognised and acknowledged by various artists, bands, streaming and label companies for my work on Bangla CD Covers. There's a high chance most artwork you see floating around the internet are scanned by me!

    1. Hi Rifat, sorry I didn't reply to your message here, but I see you've contacted me through my Facebook page. And I've corresponded to your message over there.

      For everyone else wanting to know where to find physical releases:

      1. Official Publisher Showroom - Geetanjali (G-Series) has two distinct showrooms at Elephant Road and Bashundhara City Level 6. Other label companies also have their main outlets throughout Dhaka city. You can find them using Google search and Google Maps.

      2. CD/DVD shops - These shops are now on the decrease, one of my favorite is Gaaner Bhubon, after Bata Signal at Elephant Road.

      3. Some online shops, but they're not so reliable and charge high.

      That's probably it, but do follow the bands' Facebook pages. If you message them they can tell you if their new releases can be delivered to your home on cash on delivery basis.

    2. Thank you, Kazi for the clarification. Yes I do wait quite some time before archiving as you mentioned, preferably 5 years.

      Aurthohin's Cancer er Nishikabbyo doesn't have a physical release. I'll eventually archive AvoidRafa's Bhaar and Conclusion's Mohakashchari someday.

    1. Hello Tanvir! Thank you so much for your kind words, it really does mean a lot to me.

      My plan first was to archive the underground era, the era I grew up listening to and thankfully I've managed to do it and still am filling some missing ones.

      As for the legendary albums of Miles, Souls, LRB, Nagar Baul etc., I will try my best for that. I do not have those in my collection but I am glad to let you know that there are other archiving groups in Facebook who are covering those.

  6. এটা একটা অসাধারন কালেকশন! আমি ২০১০ থেকে ২০২০ এর মধ্যে প্রকাশ পাওয়া উল্ল্যেখযোগ্য গানের তালিকা করতে গিয়ে দেখলাম বিষয়টা খুবই কঠিন! কারণ সাল অনুযায়ী প্রকাশ পাওয়ার কোনো তালিকা নেই! আপনার এই অসাধারণ কাজ আমাকে খুব সাহায্য করেছে!

A Few Words

Welcome to Bangla CD Covers. I'm on a quest to collect Artwork of CDs that are no longer in print. Here is a table to let you know what I already have here - * Coloured fields are the things I currently don't have, mainly because those are paperbacks and not the usual Jewel Case version that are known to exist and I haven't come across yet. * N/A depicts 'Not Applicable', meaning they haven't been made even in Jewel Case versions. NOTE - If you have the things in the coloured fields please help me out in completing my goal.

Paper Rhyme by Paper Rhyme

"Paper Rhyme" is the debut self-titled album by popular Bangladeshi '90s pop-rock band Paper Rhyme . It was released in 1996 from Soundtek in cassette format. Nearing the millennium, it received a CD release on "Silver Disc". Paper Rhyme was a band that formed in 1992, with the lineup of: Ahmed Saad , Nasser Haque , Rashed Iqbal , Aninda Kabir Avik and Schumann Zaman . Rashed and Nasser were part of popular pop-rock trio "Masrur-Rashed-Nasser" , with two albums called Lesson-1 and Lesson-2 . The band produced only one album and then "disappeared" as they like to say it after '96, but actually the band members went their different ways in life. They were in hiatus until in 2017, when they reunited (with the absence of Rashed Iqbal) for one last studio performance in a '90s bands compilation album called "Abar" , with the song, "Darao Bondhu" . Paper Rhyme's biggest hit to this day is the song called "On...
