Before Alex Steinweiss invented the illustrated album cover in 1938, records came in drab wrappers. Steinweiss's idea to create a package that would lure the consumer with snappy graphics proved an instant success, and spawned an entire new field of design album cover art. Steinweiss's covers are stillregarded as icons of the genre, thanks to their eye-catching graphics, distinctive and vivid colors, and playful typography. This book collects over 150 of the most famous and original graphics created by Steinweiss, including cover designs for Benny Goodman, the New York Philharmonic, Billie Holiday, Count Basie, Cole Porter, Duke Ellington, Leonard Bernstein, Dizzy Gillespie, and many others. A must-have for music fans and designers alike.
