The new trend is vinyl: records are experiencing an unexpected revival. Music fans are once again focusing on the classics and highlights of rock and pop music and are once again succumbing to the fascination of large-format record covers. The most influential artwork in pop history came from the British agency Hipgnosis. The design agency has created numerous groundbreaking covers for the biggest bands and acts of our time, from the Rolling Stones and Paul McCartney to Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd. For this book, founder Aubrey Powell has opened up the archives of the London-based creative collective for the first time and presents the best covers of the Hipgnosis era with plenty of background information.

Organized alphabetically, the book presents more than 300 covers, supplemented by commentaries and behind-the-scenes photos of the greatest music legends. With a foreword by Peter Gabriel and contributions by Robert Plant and Nick Mason.
