Reviews
Warhol's cover for the first Velvet Underground album is famous. Same for the album with the real zipper he made for the Stones' Sticky Fingers lp. This book shows that Warhol made a lot of less spectacular, but still great record covers before and after. For me the jazz and classical lp covers he did were a big and pleasant surprise. The book gives all the background information you'd want, which makes this a great book for cover lovers and for art lovers. Perfectly printed in a size just a bit smaller than the actual covers.
