A truly beautiful book - full of many of the most [full size] uplifting and stylish album covers ever created. They've been ripped off left, right, and centre by advertisers and publicists in all branches of the arts. Blue Note wasn't the only jazz label turning out cool sleeve artwork to match the sounds, but they were the best. I lost my copy somewhere along the way...how I'd dearly love another...!
