There are a couple of generations who have never known the glories of album artwork thanks to their connection to MP3s. Maybe we need to direct those kids to this article on the real stories behind some great album covers.
The list includes material from Nirvana, Allman Brothers, Beatles, Bob Dylan, The Cars, Supertramp, Beck, U2 and more.
i have been to the joshua tree, although sadly, after it came down. it isn’t particularly easy to get to, especially as a lot of highway and desert landscape looks identical. it took me hours to find (all those web sites with directions are either incorrect or imprecise), but i got there!
it’s still an incredibly cool pilgrimmage, and U2 fans have done a fantastic job of turning it into a shrine. http://www.flickr.com/photos/the-creative-type/sets/72157630958837636/
