His logo artwork is very powerful. I was happy with the track order also. Hope you enjoy listening to this again and again.<br />Cheers.

Well this was certainly an inspired idea... and it is executed so well, too!<br />Proof positive a compilation can be BOTH visually and musically breathtaking!<br /><br />The Lighthouse, John Lodge, McKendree Spring, and Atomic Rooster covers<br />I had never realized were Roger Dean's design. The biggest surprise though<br />was Rare Earth's 4th album One World. That's a favorite (along with Ecology)<br />of theirs because of it's consistency and one I play every so often to this day.<br />Also of note... sometimes I found it amazing how memorable an album cover<br />can be in it's simplicity. The Yes album Closer To The Edge fits that category.mrRadiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11328929239878601885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883466984258527857.post-8414736709922037012022-05-16T07:23:52.985+08:002022-05-16T07:23:52.985+08:00Thank you Andy,

Although my obsession for collecting music came after meeting bands at gigs, and basement record stores visits which seemed to have the best albums, most of which I didn't know. I purchased a lot of albums based on the visual of the cover.<br />Enjoy the memories and the delight of hearing some new music.<br /><br />Cheers.Butterboyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11979489332868984101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883466984258527857.post-63761831023844138862022-04-13T20:54:54.663+08:002022-04-13T20:54:54.663+08:00A stunning collection based on a simple, yet '...A stunning collection based on a simple, yet 'brilliant' concept. Roger Dean introduced me to so many different bands, purely based on their eye catching covers. Budgie has always been my favourite band and it was their NTYBOAF album cover that caught my eye when I was just 13 and started my 50+ year obsession with record collecting. Looking through your album collage above, I found myself continually saying 'got it', 'got it', 'got it' and was amazed at the number of Roger Dean album covers I have in my collection. <br />Thanks for putting this compilation together (awesome effort) and I look forward to not only hearing those familiar tracks but also hearing the small number that I don't have - and of course, the hunt will continue!<br />Cheers from DownUnder AussieRockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17984668558021295355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883466984258527857.post-44136880808553293982022-04-13T08:17:25.294+08:002022-04-13T08:17:25.294+08:00Hi Manolis,

It is great to hear that you took time to review the selections and track order.<br />It is a little like deciphering a paintings meaning. I have never seen a concept album like this one before so it was a pleasure to pull together. I actually had this prepared in 2020 but things got in the way. I was asked by a friend if I ever had thought of this idea, so I was prompted to resurrect it. Glad I did. <br /><br />Cheers.Butterboyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11979489332868984101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883466984258527857.post-79328074622736200552022-04-11T07:41:52.175+08:002022-04-11T07:41:52.175+08:00I’ve spent this weekend listening to this nonstop ...I’ve spent this weekend listening to this nonstop and l’m having difficulties trying to keep my jaw from dropping in awe. The comment about this being stunning is absolutely right on target. The songs (music, titles, & lyrics) in their selection and progression paints a pastoral not unlike trying to decipher a classic novel.
