graphic album covers

One of the things I love is the use of bold graphics. These old album covers got my attention not least because they were a combination of yellow/black/red - for some reason this colour combination always catches my eye. Wouldn't dream of having it as an interior decor scheme but... anyway they were bought about 9 months apart from each other and I now have plans to frame them, where to hang them is another matter. I might rifle through my [redundant] vinyl album and 12inch collection to see if this was something that has always been with me. But suspect my eclectic taste in music prevailed over style. Am remembering that a lot of my 7inch singles used to come in picture covers though. Going to have to hunt down a turntable just to play them again. Sorry about the crap photos, should've used the scanner. Oh and no I haven't actually listened to these albums.
