Attached is a gallery of graphic design artist Storm Thorgerson's album covers. Thorgerson recently passed away and was responsible for iconic album covers for Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, and many others. I have always felt like the artwork involved with old school vinyl created a total package for the listener that went beyond mere aural satisfaction. The album format allows artists to stimulate the visual senses as well. I have bought music in the past simply because of a cool album cover. Unfortunately Steve Jobs reduced the canvas from a 12" by 12' image down to the size of a postage stamp. Hopefully, as vinyl makes a comeback, the artwork will become important again.
