Let's not forget Alberto Vargas' contribution to The Cars - Candy O

And AV also contributed to several Decca covers as well:

Wow, took a lot longer than I figured it would for that to show up.

He did a nice one for Bernadette Peters too.

Some of my Andy's.

These are 4 separate albums.

I've got those Diana Ross and Aretha Franklin albums, but didn't know that the covers were by Warhol. Thanks!

File under "slightly pretentious modern art":

The Brubeck covers are by Sam Francis and Franz Kline. Hardly pretentious.

I got the chance to study under Sam Francis very briefly. I may have been too full of myself to learn anything.

Agreed. I dig modern art. Even John Squire's (guitarist for Stone Roses) obvious Jackson Pollock rip offs.

I believe it is Brubeck's Time Further Out with the Joan Miro picture that instructs the listener on the back cover to listen and ponder the art.

Her art graces a couple of Stan Getz and other album covers.
