About the Book: This book presents a selection of the best record covers from rock history, from the sixties to the nineties. Record covers are more than just profane protective sleeves; they are always a mirror and expression of their time. Some have become at least as legendary as the music they represent, such as Andy Warhol's work for the Stones and Velvet Underground.
Biography: Michael Ochs worked for Columbia, Shelter, and ABC Records in the sixties and seventies, worked as a disc jockey, taught rock history, and wrote for magazines such as Rock, Melody Maker, Cashbox, and Crawdaddy. In the mid-seventies, he founded the Michael Ochs Archives with millions of photographs and more than a hundred thousand record albums and singles.
