jazzbo Posted July 10 Report Posted July 10 The rain has stopped. Which makes it easier to listen to this one. Re-listening to “Part 2” of this concert as I was a bit distracted by questions about kitchen colors and textures from my wife when it was last playing. Fantastic pianism! Keith Jarrett “Sun Bear Concerts” disc 4, Tokyo. Part 2 Quote

I just think if you're going to bother creating artwork some effort may as well be put into it beyond what I feel was done so in this case. Quote

I believe less effort is put into Cover Art overall nowadays .... it could be either a cost factor or simply mirroring the fact that more sales is generated via streaming .... Quote

I agree. maybe I should just have said at the start that I find the Joel Ross cover art bizarrely horrible and left it at that 😃 Quote

You know--I think Ross chose this--his previous covers seemed personally chosen. And I don't find it so horrible. Edited July 10 by jazzbo Quote

jazzbo Posted July 10 Report Posted July 10 Yes, I don't find his art horrible, and it's obviously a commissioned work representing Ross. Quote
