This newly reformatted edition of "Classic Album Covers of the 60s" features more than 200 of the very best--and, in some cases, entertainingly worst--covers that graced LPs throughout that groundbreaking decade. It takes readers on a lively journey from the wholesome joviality of the "Very Merry Macs" and "Muscle Beach Party, " through stylish and sophisticated jazz covers, to the coolest, wildest psychedelic designs of the late 60s--including the Beatles' "Sgt. Pepper" and the Incredible String Band's "The 5000 Spirits." The evolving styles illustrated here provide a fascinating reflection of changing cultural trends during an era when artists sought to smash the prevailing rules--and, in so doing, laid the foundations for cover design today.
