Day 16: Art prints

Kamasi Washington - Harmony of Difference

These aren't prints per se, as they're just photos of beautiful paintings by Kamasi's sister Amani to go with the album. She created six, each of the first five inspired by the first five movements of the album, and the sixth a combination of all five: "an abstract depiction of a human face."

Day 16 – Prints, get your prints, what is a piece of art that came with your record that you want to show off

Larry Young - Larry Young In Paris: The ORTF Recordings (Resonance Records, 2016 limited, hand-numbered pressing 1938/2000)

I picked this fantastic set up after listening and loving the Bill Evans at the Top Of The Gate release from Resonance. As far as packages go, Resonance is hard to beat. This 2LP set includes a gatefold, booklet (which is fantastic) and a set of these incredible post card size prints. One day when I get the time (and space) I would like to frame these as they are superb!

Todd Terje - It‘s Album Time



I love everything about this album, especially the quirky artwork that carries through from the album cover to the record labels and this random art print that’s included.

There's this great record club, perhaps you all have heard of it? Anyway, this month's record came with an obi, the option for a signed edition, and a limited artwork print by the artist! ... and Bob!

Day 11: The National - High Violet (catch-up)

Scott Devendorf, the bass player, has a great style and I don't think the instrumentalists in general for the National get enough credit.

Beyonce - Lemonade

This booklet is pure art

Day 16: Art Print

Donna Summer - Four Seasons of Love



Not an art print, but rather a 4-panel calendar (that folds out vertically for some reason), going with the 4 seasons theme of the album:



EDIT: better picture

Wednesday (17) – Older Adolescent: Ahh college and the introduction to godspeed, how did your tastes change

An artist I've listened to very very much, especially between being 18 and 27 years of age is Tori Amos. First album I've got to know from her is the incredible "Boys for Pele" from 1996. I soon discovered her amazing former albums "Little earthquakes" and "Under the pink", followed her later releases and been to many of her amazing concerts in Germany.

Her outstanding lyrics are full of symbolism, references to myths, fairy tales etc and very deep/ open to interpretation. As someone who loves literature a lot I was blown away. She's still one of my favorite female artists. As I have all her albums just on CD, I play a picture disc 7" of her single "God" from "Under the pink".

Tori Amos "God"

Day 17 - college

Otis Redding - Otis Blue

I was already heavily into buying music when I went to university so what I most remember is deepening my tastes - this is one of the records I bought back then, an early 1966 UK pressing of Otis' finest hour.

Day 17 - Older Adolescent: Ahh college and the introduction to godspeed, how did your tastes change.

Lupe Fiasco's The Cool & Lupe Fiasco's Food & Liquor

Bonus two-for-one here! My tastes really didn't change much in college, but much more so after college. However, I do distinctly remember a hallmate of mine my freshman year introducing me to The Cool when it came out and forcing me to listen to Food & Liquor as well. Both albums are in my top 25 hip hop albums of all time, so I'm definitely thankful for that recommendation!

Day 17 - Older Adolescent: Radiohead - Kid A


OK Computer was released the year I started Uni, Amnesiac was the year I graduated. These three releases were part of my older adolescent soundtrack.
