In the Land of Grey and Pink

 

I think Cert is right in pointing out old Savoy Brown records : Raw sienna, Blue Matter, A Step Further, Getting to The Point and Hellbound Train. All classic albums , great progressive blues and superb artwork. Too bad offshoot group Foghat did not come out to knee height.  

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

Hi Linda

'Welcome back my friend'

Wow! i have the two i posted but never seen that angle shot..

Yep, I have a few shots from this visit... This is one of my favorites because I like to joke that this is when Giger told them how much this was gonna cost them.  The boys looked shocked and Giger is smiling like a cat....

Some more trivia on the album title for you KE9...

ELP's manager at Atlantic, actually came over to Manticore as the Director of the company. His name was Mario Medius.  He also managed a few other bands at Atlantic.. one being Dr. John.  So Mario is the one who suggested the name be changed from "Whip Some Skull on Ya" to "Brain Salad Surgery"..

THIS IS ELP

the first pic (like the inside of the HYF pic) has lots of symbolism

The second was made by someone from http://www.2112.net/powerwindows I thought it was kinda cool

Unfortunately I`m still living in the caveman era and don`t have a scanner or any of that other crap hooked up to my crappy Optiquest computer so I can`t post photos.
I`m suprised that no one has mentioned Gentle Giant`s In a Glass House cover which is my fave.
The cover of Hall of Floaters In the Sky and 200 years After the Last War  by Omega are cool. 
Another band Roger Dean did a couple of covers for was Danish prog-band Midnight Sun. I particularily like the one he did for Walking Circles. Check the last page of my web-site for a photo.

Most of Roger Deans work is excellent but it would be

amiss not to mention the works or Patrick Woodroffe

(check the artwork on Greenslades Pentateuch of Cosmogony)

 and of course Paul Whitehead for the Genesis covers and VdGG's
