i was going to call these Mark Borthwick covers, but i checked, and the SY one is actually not his photo. i don't know where i got that idea. (it's a photo by Monique Voorhout)
from Geographic label, japanese bands
Will Oldham related favourites
Susumu Yokota. the bird one was the first record i bought in Tokyo
the common factor between these 2 is that i don't listen to these records too much
to be continued
listening to Cat Power "You Are Free"
(this is a very useful hobby, so many records i have almost forgotten. mieke willems once showed their 2 favourites, and i've been thinking to do this since then. many of my very favourite records to listen to don't have very beautiful covers though.)

greetings from vienna!
It's so good to see record covers these days!! I like to look at my vynil covers, so big, so much like saying I have something worth listening here...
Of course, Palace, Bonnie Prince Billy, Cat Power, Sonic Youth... are all part of my music background too
:)
guldtjej, no, i don't mind! thank you.
esti, yeah, this is really only about covers, but some truth there too about what i like. i've been listening to some unusual stuff today, and that Yokota guy for example sounds so, so outdated... but i do like the covers.
Hi! Some of these are also my favorites... Cat Power, Sonic Youth and Bonnie Prince Billy!!
Uskomattoman hienoja levynkansia. Etenkin tuo puu, ja sen viereinen saavat ihailuni.
the covers on the second picture look beautiful, but it's hard to imagine how that music might sound. Very calm?
now your post inspired me to post something related...
Oh wow, inspires me even more to buy a turn table and all the great old records I keep seeing everywhere. There's nothing like vinyl for authentic sound and and collectable covers. All our music is on the computer at the moment for convenience!
Hehe. it's a good idea. i should do the same.
