Thorgerson and Powell ran Hipgnosis, which made a large number of the craziest and most memorable covers of the 70s/80s, not just PF. There are only three days left to watch the great documentary that Anton Corbijn made about them: https://www.netflix.com/us/title/81721595

I have this book https://biblio.co.uk/book/album-cover-album-book-record-jack... And also a lot (well some - it’s a large book…) of the depicted albums.

I find it sad that cover art is reduced/dead due to 12” -> 120mm -> gone (LP -> CD -> mp3/streaming.

I really enjoy my covers for all the ‘old’ music I have.

Thank you Rockaway Records from where I bought > 1.000 vinyls when living is LA in ‘87…!
