clifford_thornton Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 The two that spring to mind for me (or three now) are Konitz's version with Mehldau and Haden on Blue Note; cant't remember which disc it's on -- the first with the V shaped stripes on the cover I think. no, i'm talking b*llocks it's this one Both are from paintings by Kenneth Noland, so you can't be faulted too hard.

Bit 'off topic' Clifford but is this the only time Blue Note has used works of art other than it's own in house design team? Interesting to know; particularly as these are such visually striking pieces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
