Love is Real Cover Art

Post by LadyLazarus »

I'd been trying to ascertain the origins for the Love is Real cover art for a while now, only finding vague affirmations that it was the illustration on John's favorite coffee mug at the time. Maybe this is old news to some of you, but I recently discovered it to be the work of one George Barr, American science fiction/fantasy artist. There is a good bio and sampling of his other art in this link (apparently he even did uncredited body paint makeup in the original Star Trek series!) : http://oseculoprodigioso.blogspot.co.uk ... strao.html
Anyway, I picked up a cheap second hand copy of the Lloyd Biggle, Jr. Metallic Muse anthology out of curiosity.

Whoa that's awesome LL! Never knew who did that art, but I love it.
Anyway, I thought I'd share this:

I don't remember a T Bone in The Walker Brothers. :headscratch:

Still looking for information on the Songs LP cover art.

It's a link to the Flesh Gordon cover art? Maybe I'll look like some kind of Penisaurus for saying this, but I don't get it.

I guess I wasn't looking at the robot's crotch enough to get that tenuous connection, but I totally see it now.
