20 Beautiful Album Covers
I’m sure we can all agree that design and music go hand-in-hand. Musicians have a huge dependence on the design community, and vice versa. Web and graphic designers make everything from gig posters to Myspace layouts to websites for musicians. But the main relationship between designers and musicians is album artwork. From records, to cassettes, and now CDs. Every format of music available for purchase has gone through the precise hand of a designer. This showcase of album artwork will be focusing on some fantastic examples of album artwork.
