Art on your sleeve - Episode 11 - Calling America

In this episode I'm joined by Sarah and Brian Linnen, hosts of the Permanent Record Podcast. There are few podcasts that dig as deeply into the sounds and visuals of artists that were big in the eighties/nineties as they do. I highly recommend that you subscribe to their show at the usual quality podcast outlets and explore their considerable archive at: www.permanentrecordpodcast.com During this chat you will hear us each select one album and one single sleeve that we believe deserves greater recognition and talk about the reasons why we selected them. We also learn a lot along the way about how they were created and the designers behind the work. Our selections are as follows: Kiss like ether 1991 single by Claudia Brücken Designed by Tim Vary at Island Art The Lovecats 1983 single by The Cure Designed by Parched Art It’s called a heart 1985 single by Depeche Mode Designed by T+CP, illustration by Tamara Capellaro Parade 1984 album by Spandau Ballet Painting by David Band, photography by John Shaw, art direction by Gary Kemp Crowded House 1986 album by Crowded House.

Designed by Me Company We hope you enjoy the episode, if you do, subscribe at Apple Podcasts and if you’re very nice, you could even leave a review. Art on your sleeve is also available on other platforms including Spotify.
