In this episode I'm joined by Sarah and Brian Linnen, hosts of the Permanent Record Podcast. There are few podcasts that dig as deeply into the sounds and visuals of artists that were big in the eighties/nineties as they do. I highly recommend that you subscribe to their show at the usual quality podcast outlets and explore their considerable archive at: www.permanentrecordpodcast.comDuring this chat you will hear us each select one album and one single sleeve that we believe deserves greater recognition and talk about the reasons why we selected them. We also learn a lot along the way about how they were created and the designers behind the work. Our selections are as follows:Kiss like ether1991 single by Claudia BrückenDesigned by Tim Vary at Island ArtThe Lovecats1983 single by The CureDesigned by Parched ArtIt’s called a heart1985 single by Depeche ModeDesigned by T+CP, illustration by Tamara CapellaroParade1984 album by Spandau BalletPainting by David Band, photography by John Shaw, art direction by Gary KempCrowded House1986 album by Crowded House.Cover Painting by Nicholas Seymour, art direction by John O’Brien6.
