Remembering Vinyl… Retro LP Records Cover Art

written by Bane

For years ago, gramophone vinyl records held supremacy and were the main source of sound for millions of listeners … Then came cassettes and discs …
Somewhere in the 50′s begin the golden age of LP’s and this is an opportunity to show you part of the retrospective cover art. It is interesting to see how the design of LP records developed through time. Also you will see that some of the looks and trends are still modern, and many designers still use the old retro and vintage lines today in modern design and make them beautiful and live again… Hope you like it,enjoy!

    Great inspirational collection. Vintage records are certainly something to admire at. I love the artworks inspired by Jimi Hendrix. They are so cool.

    Thanks for sharing this.

    You can never have enough classic Vinyl cover designs for inspiration. Another great collection…love the Nancy Sinatra cover! After seeing The Who on the Superbowl, that cover makes them look like they were in middle school!

    Great post.
