10 of the Best Album Covers of All Time
The Best Album Covers
Sleeve art or album covers plays a significant role in the success of a music album and was, perhaps, even more important when albums was released in vinyl and large sleeves.
But the cover art of music albums still challenges artists and record companies to search for something that can attract a new audience and become memorable. Some have managed to find that extraordinary that makes a cover art iconic – and some have, of course, failed miserably.
Let us just mention a few artists and creators that will always be remembered for their art works.
Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band and Revolver
The Beatles manage to add new ideas to the art of creating iconic sleeve art with several of their studio albums, like Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, Abbey Road, and Revolver. The latter designed by Klaus Voormann, which combined line drawing with a photo collage. Voormann won the 1967 Grammy Award for Best Album Cover, Graphic Arts. Peter Blake and Jann Haworth won the price for Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band in 1969.
John Berg
During the sixties and seventies John Berg had a great impact on sleeve art. He designed five Grammy Award-winning album covers: The Barbra Streisand Album in 1964, Bob Dylan’s Greatest Hits in 1968, Underground in 1969 (Thelonious Monk), Chicago X in 1977, and Love Notes (Ramsey Lewis) in 1978.
