In recent times PINTEREST  posts jazz covers among other pictorial stuff.

I am a coverbook fan. The coverart for some labels are really great. See the Norman Granz labels.

Times are running fast. I myself  am  interested in those coverart  threads if they are at least somewhat worthwile and fit to the music inside the cover. Have myself started  such a one at SHF for the great graphic artist Dave Stone Martin (mostly on Norman Granz label covers) and plan to include also another another one  with great artist like Paul Flora.

More big names welcome!

So the question to Mike is can we members hope that he will start (restart) this project again.

I  would like to add at least a new one myself after a recent  little dicussion with  a member. I do collectmostly  jazz vinyls since the mit 1960s.

Topic would be "Original paintings on cover

Here is an example:

Cover painting by Justin Stone- LP rec. 1986

Go ahead and open the new thread, it's an interesting topic. 

 

Updating all the links will happen until the end of the year, promised.

OK . Just aquestion: how can I prevent when  adding more than one that the system will merge them? Waiting for 30 min. or what?

Thanks

BTW - when I update do not expect all of the covers to be depicted. The forum stores only the links to the pics, not the pics themselves. In case they are no longer available at the IP adress linked, nothing will be seen. or only a smal space holder symbol.

Probably we can copy the missing Items from Discogs if that is not forbidden?

Images found on discogs or amazon are not a problem.

The problem will be identifying the pics if there is no caption telling what album it is ....

Ah yes I see the problem.

BTW have counted the still working  subthreads for this topic. I come (with my own new 2) to a total of 102.  Is there a way/possibility  to put them all together under a main headline as done by you with the still working (alphabetical order) list?

OTOH  there are still possible subtopics not used yet as

- Flowers

- Landscape

- Animals

 - Portraits (either fotos or graphic portraits (drawings).

Anyway its a reason to go through your own collection and find Items not played for years
