1970s
checking proof prints of Rick Wright's cover 'Wet Dream'
Discography:
This fascinating music industry database lists some of the album covers I shot.
Po (Aubrey Powell) at the V & A
Po (Aubrey Powell of Hipgnosis) giving a fascinating talk on album cover design and history at the V&A. And reviewing his (and a little bit of my) work. Part of the Pink Floyd's Mortal Remains, exhibition. With my college friend Howard Bartrop, taker of the iconic Animals Power Station cover image.
Microdisney 30 years on
I was contacted by a french writer about the Crooked Mile cover I shot for Microdisney back in the 1980s. It's featured here, scroll down through the french bit to get the english translation. No one gives much thought to the hundreds of advertising images I shot, the album covers are frequently reviewed. Gives a form of longevity and illusion of immortality.

We get excited about digital tech - but this is scanned from a glass neg shot in 1937 found in a box in an attic.
