When and where is this from? I'm trying to figure if I've seen it before or if it just looks familiar because it reminds me of the Psygnosis logo.
I had to look it up because yeah - it could easily have been Psygnosis. It's the right era. But nope - Eraldo Carugati. Probably the guy you hired if you wanted something that looked like Psygnosis but didn't want to pay for it. Edit DAMMIT not Psygnosis Hipgnosis
Interestingly, the man who made the Psygnosis logo, Roger Dean, had a career in album art too. (I didn't know that, Wikipedia told me). ::Edit:: Checked out some of his covers. They're pretty neat too.
Huh. Kind of like what the English Romantics did for literature in the 19th century. I often wondered if those writers were really that good, or just what everyone knew and was comfortable with, like pop music, but for books. I might look into some of these album guys.
You were tested on Last of the Mohicans not because it was any good, but because like five percent of the ninety percent that were literate of the thirty percent that were northerners of the seventy percent who were white of the eight million people in the United States read it 200 years ago. So like 80,000 people.
