 Topic: Roger Dean logo??
Posted: June 10 2012 at 13:02 |
I got curious: the sort of "bird airplane" logo that appears in close to the edge back cover is the Roger Dean "assignature"? I thought ir was the atlantic records alternative logo, but searching in google images i didnt found anything. I wish i could find this logo in large size cause is very cool. Thx.

That flying object is the Moorglade in Jon Anderson's Olias of Sunhillow:

Didn't it first appear on Fragile? I don't think it was a "logo" as such, just a nice picture that was recognisable.
BTW, I don't think that Dean did the Olias cover, and, in any case, that was a fair bit later.

Incidentally, Roger Dean was not responsible for the artwork of Olias of Sunhillow (David Fairbrother Roe was). However, the Moorglade first makes an appearance on Fragile:

You chaps are wrong I'm afraid. That little logo is taken from a non Yes cover. When I find it I'll show you.

Obviously the above image is his early design without a tail. Here is a nice version of the final logo.
