The Album Cover Art of Soundtracks

Rating:
Summary: GREAT!
Review: Great book, with large 11 x 11 cover reproductions. Too bad they aren't actual 12 x 12 size, but other than that, this is one's a perfect 10. The best album art collection I've seen, without a doubt.

Review: This book and Film Posters of the 60's book go hand in hand. I think both, truly are a work of art. I've bought a bunch of these records at thrift stores and used record stores...and was enthralled by the covers...the smell of dust...starting to feel itchy after the first hour..starting to hallucinate...getting hungry...why doesn't this place have a bathroom...I told you, if you come along..I'm going to look through everything, so stop complaining.

Review: You can see three hundred LP covers in this fascinating survey of sound track albums. The large size format (almost twelve inches square) means that the many whole page covers are just a bit shorter than life size, others are four to a page. The reproduction is excellent.

Plenty of these covers use the original movie poster illustrations, done by such greats as Bob Peak or Saul Bass. Ace cartoonist Jack Davis has seven covers including his most famous, for the 1963 movie "It's a mad, mad, mad, mad world". Strangely many great illustrations used on the poster or LP cover have no artist credits. Perhaps more than any other type of record cover sound tracks used a wider range of graphics and design and this certainly comes across looking through these colorful pages.

There are probably more than twenty of these large size paperbacks devoted to LP cover art published over the last few years and this sound track edition is worth adding to your collection.
