Rooster_Ties Posted 16 hours ago Report Posted 16 hours ago (edited) Those are all four of the bigger cities I’ve lived in throughout my life (well, Pittsburgh starting in a few weeks). But rather than devoting an entire topic to Pittsburgh only (which there don’t seem to be dozens of examples from Pittsburgh alone) — I thought I’d go for our four cities in one thread. How many can we come up with?? The landmarks can be obscure, and don’t have to be incredibly well known — but outdoor shots that include buildings, venues, what-have-you — or best of all, entire city-scapes. Who knows — maybe I’ll decide to track down physical copies of the very best example from each city — and put framed copies of the covers in a hallway in our new place in Pittsburgh.

Rooster_Ties Posted 1 hour ago Author Report Posted 1 hour ago OK, here's the most epic one of Kansas City that I know of... Jimmy Witherspoon With Jay McShann And His Band – Goin' To Kansas City Blues And after a LOT of digging around on DIscogs (simply searching on 'Pittsburgh' - and scrolling through pages and pages of results), this might be the only(?) jazz album I can find with an actual pic of downtown PGH on the cover... Frank Cunimondo – Frank Cunimondo Plays George Benson Live In Concert – Vinyl (LP, Album, Stereo), 1978 [r9325057] | Discogs Seems to have been a local guy, best I can tell. It's been on CD too -- but the cover looks way too 'CD modern' for my taste -- but I'm looking for LP covers anyway (if I'm gonna hang any). Every release on that same label is by Cunimondo -- so it's essentially a private label then... Mondo Records Inc. | Discogs Here's the cover of the CD reissue... Quote
