Composer and multi-instrumentalist Louis “Moondog” Hardin was a pioneer of outsider music. Frequently a street performer, Moondog dreamed up a sui generismix of jazz, classical, primal, and avant-garde sounds, often playing instruments of his own design, sometimes while wearing a Viking helmet. When Warhol was tasked with envisioning the cover for ...
The majority of Warhol’s pre-fame cover designs were for jazz records. He created album art for Count Basie, Artie Shaw, Thelonious Monk, Paul Desmond, and more. But the cover he came up with for jazz guitar giant Kenny Burrell’s Blue Lightshad its roots in an unlikely aspect of Warhol’s work for hire. Warhol had spent years illustrating print ads ...
The “banana cover” Warhol created for the self-titled debut of The Velvet Underground & Nico(whom he was managing and nominally producing at the time) is not only his most famous album design but one of his most widely known works in any medium and an iconic piece of 60s pop art. Like Warhol’s career-making Campbell’s soup can, the banana cover was...
Warhol was always aiming upwards, and his cover concept for The Rolling Stones’ first studio album of the 70s took the suggestiveness of the Velvet Underground album to another level. Instead of a banana with a removable peel, buyers of the original Sticky Fingerswere confronted with a crotch-level shot of a man in tight jeans who was clearly, shal...
Warhol liked to explore a concept across multiple pieces (more on that in a minute), but his cover for former Velvet Undergrounder John Cale’s second solo albumseems to occupy its own exclusive territory. Warhol’s die-cut design symmetrically displayed 21 closeup photos of Cale’s eyes and four of his face, all represented as Kodachrome slides. The ...
One of Warhol’s most frequent tactics, especially in later years, was to display a photo with an Epidiascope (opaque projector), and use that as the template for a painting. He was reportedly doing it as early as his design for Count Basie’s self-titled 1955 LP, and over the years, he applied it to album cover images of everyone from Paul Anka to B...
This is the 15th title in Moondogs discography. The cover is by Andy Warhol, hand-written by his mother, Julia Warhola (this can be seen at the down right corner of the front sleeve, not really visible in the picture here). No more than 5.000 copies were made.
She won an award for her inscriptions, including the album cover featuring the musician Moondog in 1958. In 1957, she illustrated a small book called the Holy cats, and she also worked for '25 Cats Name Sam and One Blue Pussy'.
