Summary:
Not just a look at the art of record cover design Record covers are a
sign of our life and times. Like the music on the discs, they address
such issues as love, life, death, fashion, and rebellion. For music
fans the covers are the expression of a period, of a particular time
in their lives. Many are works of art and have become as famous as
the music they stand for - Andy Warhol's covers, for example,
including the banana he designed for The Velvet Underground. In this
book, Michael Ochs, owner of one of the largest private collections
of record covers in the world, presents a personal selection of the
thousand items that mean most to him. This is not just a look at the
art of record cover design - the book also offers a fascinating
survey of rock music genres and styles from their beginnings to the
present day.
