Robert Ashley & Album Cover Art
Aug. 20th, 2006 07:19 pmPopped down to Snoopers this morning to dump - urm - arrange some LPs and books for the stall. Whilst there bought a CD that Mr.Hellwell had put out ,"Wolfman" by Robert Ashley (Alga Marghen CD),which strangely enough is only the second CD i have by him, despite the fact he gets reviewed quite often in Wire and his music is always fascinating. Must hunt down some more of his stuff,esp on the Lovely Records label.
From Sandpiper Books got one of those lovely album art cover books called "Naked Vinyl" by Tim O'Brien and Mike Savage (Chrysalis Books 2002 ISBN 1-64411-005-2), a celebration of classic (female) nude album cover art.They have two other cover art books as well,one on 45rpm singles,and a fifties album cover art book , which is mostly clasical music or easy listening. Both just as good as the Blue Note album cover art book that came out some years back,or the "High Art" book on psychedelc album covers and posters of the sixties.
A lazy Sunday day for me,mostly reading,surfing the net,or listening to music,or doing all three at once!!
