Gold (album series)
Gold is a series of two-disc compilation albums released by Universal Music Group. Some include tracks licensed from non-Universal labels.
Most, if not all, of the albums share a common layout, with a photograph of the artist below a gold bar, with a gold vertical line near the right hand side, the artist's name on the left of the gold line, and "Gold" on the right. Earlier Gold series compilations had a design based on that of ABBA Gold, such as the compilations for The Carpenters and Etta James.
Most of the earliest CDs in this series were released on the Hip-O imprint.
