Re: Blue Note album covers

Thanks for posting those, Mek!
I love old 70s album covers; there's nothing else like 'em. Some 60s covers are great, too. Herb Alpert's Whipped Cream and Other Delights comes to mind; IMO, it's almost on a level with Ohio Players - Honey.
If I had an album, I would do it in the old style. As pretty as all of this new computer-manipulated stuff is, there's something so... meaty about the old stuff, and I don't mean just the nekkid ones. smiley


Eh, vat do you know from funny, ya bastids...

I think there's a program out there some wherer that cures that sort of thing...'PhotoStitch" maybe?

I can't speak for that phenomenon in general, but if you've seen what the Ohio Players actually looked like (shocked), you know good and well why they were not on their album covers!
