A&M album covers

[Vinylalbumcovers]

I hate to take up space with this but I figure as I add A&M covers to the site, I might as well let people know they're there. Since we've been talking a bit about Jam & Lewis lately:

Newly added:

Human League - "Crash" (front, gatefold, back, labels)

Human League – Crash | Vinyl Album Covers.com

vinylalbumcovers.com

also:

Herb Alpert - "Keep Your Eye On Me" (front, back, sleeves, labels)

Enjoy!

Newly added:

Herb Alpert - Diamonds [12-inch single] (front, back, labels)

Herb Alpert – “Diamonds” b/w “Diamonds” (instrumental & beats dubcapella mixes) | Vinyl Album Covers.com

This was done on a brand new scanner that is large enough to enable scanning of entire jackets and sleeves in one pass. The process is much simpler now.

I suppose I should also mention that there's a bunch of other new stuff in there too. Hi-Lo's, Count Basie, Peter Cetera, The Bee Gees, etc. etc.

There are plenty of other things that have been added since I last posted in this thread but I didn't feel it appropriate to mention it since this is specifically an A&M Records-oriented site.

I went looking for the old thread and I can't find it. I thought this might be of interest. Just did this one. It existed on the old version of the site but it wasn't done well. I put the time into this one so hopefully, it's better.:

Enjoy! More A&M's coming very soon.

I have the U.S. copy of the above album as well and I'm noticing there are more differences than I initially realized. I'll leave the U.K. version up as is and tomorrow, I'll add the U.S. elements that are different.

I updated the links in the original posts here, and merged the new additions.

Thanks so much! Wow, above and beyond... LOL!

As promised, the amended "Design of a Decade" to include the U.S. & U.K versions. I did the U.K. album as a whole and only scanned the U.S. elements that differed.

One of A&M's best front covers. I have a few framed on my wall and this is one of them.

Agreed. Very classy. I also like the Herb covers I've got too - especially "Magic Man.":

Great shot!

P.S.: Thanks to @Harry for helping me deal with the cut-out notch.

I also like the jacket of Jackson's next album, as it does a near-perfect job of honoring the original.

Hey, I don't know if you're interested, but back when I was working, our Program Director Charley Lake who had been an A&M employee gave me a few A&M trinkets he didn't need. This one is a plastic Joe Jackson button with that piano image on it:



The back has an embossed A&M logo on it. If you want it let me know. It's just cluttering up my drawer.
