Mike Posted July 12, 2015 Posted July 12, 2015 Have some blank lp album frames that have picked up over time in the local bargain type shopNot as easy making use of them as I first thought it be, so thinking that may be both worthwhile and entertaining for a pinterest style topic....How about a suggestions for lp covers that would look good framed and up on the wall topic any ...... ?
Mal C Posted July 12, 2015 Posted July 12, 2015 (edited) Have you seen the book 'Heart & Soul' Mike? has a piccie of Little Richard on the cover.. anyhow its worth a look cause the LP's in here are all brilliant.. Edited July 12, 2015 by Mal C 1
Chris Turnbull Posted July 12, 2015 Posted July 12, 2015 I did a colour photocopy of this Art Tatum sleeve a while back and put it in a nice chrome frame which looks the business in my home office. Couldn't believe what a good quality copy you could do on the cheap - colours are a lot brighter than the version I have copied below and it really does look great. 1
Sjclement Posted July 12, 2015 Posted July 12, 2015 Most Blue Note albums from the 50s and early 60s are well worth framing Warhol did a couple and the monochrome prints of Art Blakey, Lee Morgan & Miles look great in frames some are faithfully reproduced in "The Cover Art of Blue Note" 2
Dean Posted July 13, 2015 Posted July 13, 2015 3 from the dining room, innervisions, Takes Two and my personal favourite Roadrunner. Swap them around just taken out Ruff N Ready and the Walter Jackson on Okeh with the coloured pencil portrait (can't remember title now, is it Introducing?).
Dean Posted July 13, 2015 Posted July 13, 2015 This is the Walter Jackson cover I was trying to think of (taken from web as I'm work)
AlanB Posted July 13, 2015 Posted July 13, 2015 (edited) I have Impressions Big Sixteen Vol.2 on the wall. Edited July 13, 2015 by AlanB adding picture
Chalky Posted July 13, 2015 Posted July 13, 2015 I have one of Bing Crosby's on the wall, not soul but I think it looks good, it was a birthday present too.
Stateside Posted July 13, 2015 Posted July 13, 2015 Talking of label art. There's a bar in Kinsale, Ireland that has the walls and ceiling decorated with album covers, all genres. I can't remember the name of it even though I was there in April just gone. When you've had five pints and start staring up at the ceiling trying to name them all, the room starts spinning. Great idea though Kev
Winsford Soul Posted July 13, 2015 Posted July 13, 2015 3 from the dining room, innervisions, Takes Two and my personal favourite Roadrunner.

Love the presentationSteve
Soulstu Posted July 13, 2015 Posted July 13, 2015 (edited) This one does it for me, just look at this face, in the zone or what! If it was on my wall it would remind me what it's all about - uptempo soul!!!!! Edited July 13, 2015 by SoulStu
Stateside Posted July 13, 2015 Posted July 13, 2015 One of my favourite albums and covers. Deserved of a place on the wall Kev
