Hipgnosis BBC Design...

[ERIC ROMANO/JMC2000 <romano1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Fellow Badgeholders-
	I read with interest the description of the packaging and
promotional items for the imminent BBC set.  What a shame!  Seems like a
straight band photo and session info type of deal.  I would love to see
a more conceptual design, like their Hipgnosis sleeves from Presence and
Houses.  The *lack* of information and identity of the band on the cover
makes the music much more interesting!  You can attach all kinds of
significance to the music on Physical Graffiti from the cover design.

	Just like the surreal presentation of some boots enhances the
pleasure in the contents.  Blueberry Hill's cover looks like something
Page might approve himself... too bad we won't get to see a design like
this on the new release.  Hey, at least there's the music!
