For the past year, most of the Coverart posts have consisted of a photo of two albums (above).
Today I’m experimenting with a vertical series of individual LPs.
Interested to know if people prefer one or the other.

Headline News – Atomic Rooster [Album, 1983]
[…] See also ‘News of the World‘ and ‘More Headline News‘ […]

Vertical series (the Slow reveal) or photos side by side?
I like juxtapositions (but maybe that just reflects how my mind “works”).

Not sure about the skin tone.
I do remember buying that Beast LP from a market stall. The sallow lank-haired stall-holder smirked, ‘Good cover, eh?’.
I replied, with all the dignity I could muster, ‘I’m only buying it for the newspaper cover’… And received a 24 carat ‘Yeah, right’ look in return.
I just hope he’s viewing these Newspaper Cover posts. Neh, neh neh.
