Just want to let you know, Chris, that because of your work, I was finally able to show my wife the album cover. Something I have been telling her about since 1989 when I first saw it! I think it made for one happy wife to get her man to finally be quiet about the thing!
^^^ Chris, too bad YOU weren't the A&M art director for their albums etc!
Chris the colourised photo is AMAZING! I love the video, especially the close up shot of the vinyl album with the tracks on it...amazing to think what could have been.
That video would have been a great promo for the solo album release back in '79..........missed opportunity. Love it. The whole concept is stunning.
The photo is truly a work of art, you should be very proud, it's a labour of love.
Don't remember that one, but welcome to the 'Dreaded False Memories Club'!Chris, thank you for your amazing work! Your "If We Try" video with the mall scenes is nothing short of a masterpiece!
Yet I am now reminded of hearing a Carpenters' commercial on the radio during the 1970s for a (U.S.) mall store, Colony (or Colony Shops); it was a women's clothing store. I vividly remember Karen singing the line, "the place with a little something extra." I tried an online search but found nothing. Does anyone else have the same recollection? Could I be having one of those dreaded false memories? Am I losing my mind? Any input would greatly be appreciated and perhaps restore my sanity---if we try...
Oh wow!!!
I like that so much better, I just replaced this one for my desktop, it even makes her brown eyes more beautiful.
Thank you!!
WOW! Great work, Chris. Thank you! My new favorite thread on the Boards.
Thanks, Chris, for your FANTASTIC work!!!! The video is primo, and the album cover blows me away. So incredibly cool! And you've just righted a 33 year old wrong. Thanks so much.

Chris- I meant to ask you- is this photo sized for CD? Can I print it as is to fit a jewel case?Thanks, Jamesj75!
Here is a version of the photo / cover with a darker and more violet colored jacket. This color is closer to what Mark saw on her original cover at A&M. I like this version as the deeper colored jacket makes her beautiful face stand out all the more.
