1987 first pressing vinyl record
A&M Records - SP-3911
Cover art by Keith Haring
This 1987 original pressing vinyl record showcases the distinctive artwork of Keith Haring and serves as the inaugural release in the "A Very Special Christmas" series. These albums, dedicated to Christmas themes, aim to support the Special Olympics. Helmed by Jimmy Iovine for A&M Records, the album debuted on October 12, 1987, and has since made significant contributions to the Special Olympics fund. Notably, the cover art for this album was crafted by the renowned Keith Haring.
This specific piece features an original offset lithograph on a vinyl record jacket, adorned with engraved gold foil. Measuring 12 1/5 × 12 1/5 inches (31 × 31 cm), it showcases Haring's printed signature on the lower left corner and is plate-signed and dated by the artist. The colors are exceptionally vibrant (gold foil), rendering it a captivating choice for wall decor. It remains in good vintage condition.
Included alongside the piece are the original record and insert, both designed by Keith Haring.
For added insight, Keith Haring's influence on album art transcends this particular work. His collaborations with luminaries such as Grace Jones, Andy Warhol, and Jean-Michel Basquiat, coupled with his active involvement in the music scene, notably at venues like Paradise Garage alongside his close associate Larry Levan, underscore the profound intersection of his art with the world of music. Whether through his depictions of DJ robots or his impact on musicians ranging from David Bowie to Run DMC, Haring's legacy resonates deeply within music history.
