That brings back the memories. The first Osibisa album I bought, which was
also the first African music I heard, was bought because it had a Roger
Dean cover. Yes, I was a prog nerd. As a result of that purchase, I also
started down the road to Afro-nerdism.

So, is there any designer today that will make automatically buy a disc,
or at least take a second look? I can't think of any off the top of my
head, and I look at hundreds of records a week.
