About this product

Product Information

Other books have already praised the music inside the sleeves of these musical masterpiences but The 100 Best Album Covers using Dorling Kindersley's highly successful annotated approach focuses exclusively on one hundred of the most striking and lasting images in popular music. Charting the changes and developments in album design of the last 40 years each of the world-famous covers has been specially chosen as a classic document of its time. From the 60s psychedelia of Pink Floyd to the Britpop of Blur all the covers are reproduced in full colour. Detailed annotations explain the creative genius involved in their production and lively informative text provides fascinating anecdotes about the work of the designers from Andy Warhol to Peter Saville.

  • A reminder of why albums are better than downloads.

    A great reminder of why albums are better than downloads. Album artwork and sleeve notes were, and still are, an intrinsic part of the music experience. Interpretation, beauty, imagination and images now rated as iconic artworks in themselves, album covers reflect a time, a mood, and your place in your musical journey. This book is informative, entertaining, and a worthy tribute to the backroom boys who produced some of the finest graphics in history. recommend.
