I have a grandson (just 6 on Thursday) who is heavy into Garage Band. May have to wait for him. I do remember the heyday of album covers, though. A&M records had a ?look? that really caught the eye of some of my buddies in college back in the late ?60s. I?m sure some of those images (as I browse the albums now) still inform my photography. CDs really took away album covers (and notes). Now streaming has removed much of the rest. Sigh. Adam > On 2020 Jul 11, at 3:48 AM, Douglas Barry <imra at iol.ie> wrote: > > Provia for me, Adam.
