Best Album Covers of the 60s

Share

This week’s special post is related to music. It’s the first of a series that will include the best album covers of music history of the last 50 years. So let’s start from the legendary 60s. The symbol of this decade (and, in my opinion, of music in general) are The Beatles that are obviously included in this special collection, accompanied by other music gods like The Who & The Rolling Stones. Sometimes an album cover can be considered a real artwork, especially in the case of the album “The Velvet Underground & Nico” designed by Andy Warhol, that stills one of the most famous album covers of all time. Well, hope you can enjoy this collection of albums.. and who knows? Maybe they will give you some inspiration for some new retro-design projects!
