Well, the interview on that disc exists in various variations:

- an oversized (12"x12") box like you describe it, order number CID 09,
  no idea about the company doing this, but a guy in a record shop once
  said that there are quite a few boxes like these with interview discs
  for other artists. See also the order number (suggesting at least 8
  others)
- a 5" gold CD without booklet
- a 5" gold CD with booklet (claiming that the disc is 3")
- a 3" CD with booklet (same as above)
- a 7" white vinyl
- a 7" picture disc
- a 2x7" pack containing both, white vinyl and picture disc
- (part of) a 4x7" pack, containing the interview distributed on
  2 7" vinyls colored red and purple (each with identical sides A and B,
  so 2 7"s are needed to hold a 7 minute interview. The other 2 singles
  in that pack hold another 13 minute interview...
- (part of) a picture CD in a 7" boxed set, with another interview on the
  same disc

I don't think this is all, but it's already quite a bit. Some of the discs
in the list are made in UK, as are actually most interview discs. So I guess
that the 12" box is also from there.

Bye,

Uli
