Musikraphics: Victionary
First to recommend
Description
In August 2008, Victionary, a Hong Kong based Publisher specialized in Art and Design, released Musikraphics. This is a collection of CD and DVD cover designs, and the packages and poster designs. Most of the works collected for this book aren't the artists' photography. They're illustrations, graphics, collages and other kinds of art that are designed for us to learn the images and impressions of each song.

The was one year in which several album covers featured string on or about the face of the artist. This one is one of my favorite ones from that short era. Turns out the music is really good!!

Kingdom Come

Description
At around the edge of the 21st century Hip-Hop package design slipped out of it's quixotic hand drawn Rap stylings and began to inhabit the look and feel of slick packing design that was usually reserved for other less fantastical music forms. The cover design for Jay-Z's "Kingdom Come" is one of my favorites because it is a interactive work. What seems to be a straight up cover portrait of the artist is actually an illusion. The striking photo of Jay-Z is framed in a see through ruby colored slipcase that hides the actual hypnotic portrait of Jay_Z with and without his baseball cap, with and without his icon sunglasses. This image could have been the cover in it's own right, but it's psychedelic look may have been off target or misleading. Instead this image is meant as a alternative cover that shows the two sides of this particular performer. I think it's one of the best album cover designs. (via Amoeba Music)

Curtis Mayfield (wow, I should have brought out his albums on my last long drive). Curtis Mayfield could be played any place any time--even as a James Bond Theme song, that's how expansive his sound is. my pick would be "If There's A Hell Below We're All Going To Go"
