musical puzzler

This is a puzzler, not a genuine question. (The source gave the answer.) Anyway, I found it amusing. Behold:



This recording's cover says it's of Brahms's Symphony No. 8.

Your turn to figure it out: Is it? And, if not, what is it really?

Oh boy!

It's an illustration of the universal need to have subject matter experts involved at every stage of producing records and printed matter.

The recording inside the sleeve or jewel box is not Brahms's 8th, which doesn't exist.

I presume that it is BRUCKNER's 8th.
