Rooster_Ties Posted April 18, 2007 Report Posted April 18, 2007 (edited) I'm an architecture buff, particularly urban architecture of the 20th century --- and I almost always have a special dual interest in jazz album covers that have buildings, street-scenes, cityscapes, or other "structural elements" featured on them. Post any and all you know of here in this thread!!! Lots of obvious choices which I'm sure will be posted in due time, so I'll start with a couple I wasn't familiar with, that I just stumbled on while looking at The Bastards' website... Note: Covers certainly don't have to exclusively be of jazz albums -- though I think jazz albums are often among the best at incorporating visual elements related to buildings, architecture, and the like.

Spontooneous Posted April 19, 2007 Report Posted April 19, 2007 True story: My 78-year-old father saw a copy of the Beastie Boys' "Paul's Boutique" in a thrift store and bought it simply because he found the cover so fascinating. (He probably threw the record away.) Gotta admit, the gatefold LP cover is striking inside and out. Quote
