About the Item

1980s Andy Warhol record art: A collection of 4 LPs with individual cover art designed by Andy Warhol between the late 1970s to early & mind 1980s.. Featuring: Aretha Franklin, Diana Ross, Debbie Harry & Liza Minnelli 12 x 12 inches / 30.48 x 30.48 cm (applies to each individual). Circa 1979-1986. Covers: Ranging from very good to excellent overall vintage condition. Includes original records in good to excellent condition. Classic 1980's Andy Warhol imagery that makes for fantastic wall-art. Each piece is featured prominently in 'Andy Warhol: The Record Covers, 1949-1987- Catalog Raisonne' by Andy Warhol scholar, Paul Marechal. Further Background: In the late 1950s, as the record industry began to expand at an extraordinary rate, Warhol was hired by both Columbia and RCA Records on a freelance basis to create album covers and promotional content and, from there, carried the skill throughout his career. When Warhol arrived in New York he met with his schoolmate George Klauber who was, at the time, working for a creative agency run by Will Burtin. Klauber did Warhol a favour and introduced him to Burtin and the opportunity to work with Columbia’s, and later RCA’s, art director Robert M. Jones. Robert M. Jones remembered it fondly and suggested that the commissions may have been his first: “I gave him three little spots to do for the corners of the standard albums. He needed money. I never kept any records but I know that these little spots must have been amongst the first things he did, certainly in the first three to six months he was here. I gave him three different ones to do, at $50 apiece. And two days later he came back with a stack of drawings like that to satisfy the three drawings we needed.” (source: Farout magazine)
