About

Proof you can see music.

Before you dropped the needle, there was the cover.

From the 1940s through the early 1990s, jazz produced a visual language every bit as inventive as the music itself. Photography, illustration, typography, color, abstraction, minimalism: the album cover became part of how the music announced itself to the world.
