The "Original Album Classics" CD series, launched by Sony Music in the autumn of 2008, has become a very interesting offer for collectors and music enthusiasts. In addition to classic albums from the label's repertoire, the series is also a treasure trove of long out-of-print albums and rarities. The catalogue now contains almost 200 titles from the fields of rock, pop, jazz and classical music. Each of the boxes offers five or, in a smaller version, three CDs by a single artist at an extremely attractive price. The albums are offered in what are known as "cardboard sleeves" as mini vinyl replicas with original covers. The series presents a uniform look with a large photo of the artist/band and small illustrations on the front cover of the box. The back of the box art also features the sleeves of the included albums with the corresponding track listing.

Album műfajok között Rock, Punk, Pop Rock, Art Rock, Garage Rock, Rock & Roll, Classic Rock és Glam.
