I love album covers! Not the shrunken down versions they use on CDs, I mean those gloriously creative (mostly) 12” vinyl record album covers. I was looking through my vinyl record collection the other day and marvelled at some of the amazing designs of some of the covers. Now, before we start delving into some classic album covers as well as a few personal favourites, a little history is in order, but don’t panic – there will not be a quiz later.

It’s sports overload right now as the NHL season has kicked off, baseball playoffs have started, the English Premier League and Champions League are in full swing and Canadian Graham DeLaet gets ready to tee it up with some of the world’s best at The Presidents Cup this weekend. Throw in the NASCAR chase and NFL and CFL it is lucky that I don’t have cable as I imagine I would be spending a lot of time alone.
