musical inspiration

Vintage record sleeves are a great source of colourful inspiration, it is always worth digging through the piles of Des O'Conner and 80's rock albums for classical titles from the 50's and 60's. I found a stack of them in the charity shop for 50p each and picked out these three. I love the bold shapes, colours and no nonsense typography. La Traviata is so pretty she is going into a frame. Now I need to look out for a vintage deck so that I can play them!
