Marillionboy Posted April 23, 2005 Report Share Posted April 23, 2005 JImmy Campbell's Half Baked...and the equally eerie Nirvana's Local AnaestheticI have always preferred photographs to artwork on covers and in the early 70s there seemed to be a real taste for sparse, intriguing images, of which this is a perfect example: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like it might be his or Hipgnosis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marillionboy Posted April 23, 2005 Report Share Posted April 23, 2005 I've no idea, who's that? Would love to know who they're by!The Campbell is a great album by the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Cynic Posted April 23, 2005 Report Share Posted April 23, 2005 Hipgnosis were Po & Storm...they did a lot of the Harvest label covers...eg Pink Floyd 'Atom Heart Mother', 'Ummagumma' etcIncidentally, if you like the photo on the cover of 'Piper at the Gates of Dawn' , it was taken by Vic Singh, who apparently only did that one cover until he was tracked down by John Cavanagh (of BBC Scotland....yes, the same guy who read the football scores!), who got him to use the same lens and take the photo for his recent album with Phosphene.

Tav Posted April 23, 2005 Report Share Posted April 23, 2005 I believe the picture of the star cluster (or whatever it is) used in that last one you posted appeared in the booklet of Binaural by Pearl Jam. People want to stop stealing the images they use! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
