Best looking CD/LP for sleeve & artwork

[VonStupp]

Love the art on this cover! I think I have seen it used a couple of times on recordings.

I am an absolute neophyte of visual art, but I love the foreground/background images with the tree and cross offset to the right, contrasted with the angular snowy ground and rocks.

The absolutely superb cover art by Hans Wild for Solti's legendary Der Ring des Nibelungen recording:









Solti's recordings of other Wagner operas also have magnificent cover art (Parsifal's, for example) but I'm not sure if they were made by Hans Wild too. I assume not because he died in -69 and some of those opera recordings were made way later (unless they were not originally meant for those recordings or something like that).

These cover arts from Dacapo featuring Langgaard's works for violin and piano look quite eye-catching to me:

Their covers for his string quartets, too.

Some of these look more abstract yet rather attractive as well.

That cover would strongly tempt me to purchase. Which of course is the object of the exercise.

BTW any good?

I found the recording of the Viola Concerto here:

Back to shifting around a chunk of my CD collection...running out of room!  Am doing a tiny bit of culling while at it.  I did (sadly) cull some of my cookbook collection and moved some of my cooking magazines to make more room for it already.    The mixed-blessing of having "stuff"!

If you're into reflective, pensive, wistful stuff, then you could enjoy it.

Yes, listened to the work on YT yesterday which is beyond interesting.

Not terribly relevant to Bach, but I like what I like... 

[KevinP]

Not sure if 'best looking,' but certainly a well-executed, very cool concept.

Love this!

Overall, I agree it's nice (the other two as well), but the placement of that bike...
