The Greatest Record Cover Auteurs

[IdleRich]

A few years back did a night in East London with this guy and he mentioned his dad used to design record sleeves and so I asked if there were any I would know and he said.... well, Ziggy Stardust for one.

Pete Watson did the design for all the Flock of Seagulls records

( ^ personal fave song by them)

this prob the best for the album

 

[catalog]

Comics artist Charles Burns (everyone read 'Black Hole' - it's incredible, very scary and creepy) has done loads

 

[catalog]

Also Gary Panter - huge influence on the Fort Thunder guys

this is the famous image repurposed a few times - was a flyer first

Tony McDermott - did loads of the Greensleeves covers including the 'Carnival of Reggae History' 12" sleeve. I've probably got more examples of his work in my collection than any other artist
