Two Gentlemen of Verona

This is such a hot LP cover. Such a perfect combination of illustration and typography. Two Gentlemen of Verona is a musical written by Galt MacDermot (of "Hair" fame (I'm also a huge fan of MacDermot, "Hair," and all the weird versions of the soundtrack out there (I'll probably be showing a bunch of them on the blog in due time))). Art direction by Peter Whorf, design by Martin Donald.

    Thanks. I'll check it out. Galt's the man. I saw him conduct the Public Theater 40th anniversary concert performance a couple summers back in Central Park. Good times.
