Summary:
The 20th century witnessed the birth of the LP, and with it the
phenomenon of the record sleeve—the canvas for many of the most
inspired and loved images ever created. Millions of people buy albums
and CDs not just for the songs, but also for the artwork, which
stands as a visual representation of everything the music means to
the listener. Written by record cover designer and art historian
Professor Nicholas de Ville, this unique volume, dedicated to the
most unforgettable album art ever created, is unparalleled in its
detail and scope. It provides the first visual history of the album
cover and of the designers, recording artists, and record companies
associated with the greatest graphics of all time.
