Rooster_Ties Posted August 24, 2006 Report Posted August 24, 2006 (edited) Don't have any good non-BN examples right at hand (am at work, or I'd skim through my collection at home before starting this thread). What are you favorite covers that include the names of all the sidemen on the cover?? Specifically -- were there any other labels (besides BN) that consistantly or usually included sidemen's names on the cover?? What were some of the better and/or more inovative ways to include this info, in a way what maybe became a part of the design element of the cover?? We all know the Reid Miles BN covers, front to back -- I'm thinking more of how other labels did this, and did any do it as well (or as "interestingly") as Miles did?? (Especially good Reid Miles examples of this are not unwelcome in this thread, but let's not post every BN cover he ever did.) Did this happen more often with labels (like BN) that had a sort of roster of players?? - where leaders would be sidemen on other recordings on the same label - as much or more often than not.

Hot Ptah Posted August 24, 2006 Report Posted August 24, 2006 Concord in Carl Jefferson's day often listed the sidemen on the cover. Muse is another label that often did so. Quote
