Vinyl Hayride by Paul Kingsbury5/8/2023 Most of the covers before the Seventies follow the usual album design format, bland photo of the artist and some dull colored typography, though there are some exceptions, for instance Porter Wagoner's 'Confessions of a Broken Man' or 'Skid Row Joe'. Johnny Cash has ten covers from 1956 to 1985, Dolly Parton six from 1967 to 1987, Waylon Jennings six from 1966 to 1985. As the covers are arranged chronologically you can see how the big names and some one-hit wonders, were graphically presented by their record companies. Fortunately none of them are angled or overlapping each othe. More than 250 are shown, in color, either one or four to a page in this almost LP size book. At last country music fans have their own cover art book.
