I'd by this one! er, I mean I'd download the torrent....nice cover.
I like this one a lot.
Since contemporary artists and bands choose random names, titles and images this exercise is sure to create contemporary looking covers.
The 60s was all about being purposeful, the 70s conceptual and the 80s clever/cute.
The exercise should be repeated with wider parameters so 60s-70s looking covers can be produced.
Perhaps a different sources could be used to create hip-hop covers.
