80s album covers – Nathan Baylet

Album covers are a really cool art form. In a single picture they grab our attention, tell us about the artist, tell us the mood of the album’s music, and get us excited to buy and listen to the album. And if the album cover was really cool it may have ended up as a poster on our bedroom wall as a symbol of enjoyment. I love album covers, and since I have a bunch of cassette tapes left over from the 1980s I thought I’d share with you some of my favorite ’80s album covers and my thoughts on random covers from the ’80s. I would love to hear your thoughts about album covers. What are your favorites? Thanks so much for hanging out here with me. I hope you enjoy this video and I hope you have an amazing week. music from Artlist: “Starry Eyed – Instrumental Version” by Jane the Boy (used with permission) chapters 0:00 - intro 1:27 - Raised on Radio by Journey 3:18 - Turnstiles by Billy Joel 6:20 - Paul McCartney All the Best 7:15 - Knee Deep in the Hoopla by Starship 8:34 - Radio KAOS by Roger Waters 9:37 - Brothers in Arms by Dire Straits 10:10 - a bad cover Genesis covers 12:00 - Hunting High and Low by a-ha 12:57 - Sports by Huey Lewis and the News 14:12 - Heaven on Earth by Belinda Carlisle 15:02 - Like a Virgin by Madonna 15:51 - Born in the U.S.A. by Bruce Springsteen 16:04 - Ghostbusters soundtrack 16:25 - Breakin’ and Miami Vice soundtracks 16:58 - No Jacket Required by Phil Collins 17:30 - True Blue by Madonna 18:02 - Now & Zen by Robert Plant 18:17 - Control by Janet Jackson 18:46 - MSM and Tiffany and Debbie Gibson 19:07 - Steve Winwood 19:32 - Nothing But the Sun by Sting 20:12 - Cuts Like a Knife by Bryan Adams 20:42 - Journey Greatest Hits 20:55 - Mosaic by Wang Chung 21:11 - Kick by INXS 21:49 - Into the Fire by Bryan Adams 22:09 - bad album covers ELO 22:34 - End of Innocence by Don Henley 23:42 - No Protection by Starship 24:04 - Points on a Curve by Wang Chung 24:31 - Welcome to the Real World by Mr. Mister 24:44 - Steel Wheels by The Rolling Stones 24:58 - Batman orchestral soundtrack 25:11 - Bruce Springsteen Live 1975-85 25:52 - Christopher Cross 26:10 - Billy Joel albums 52nd Street 26:25 - Billy Joel Songs in the Attic 26:38 - Billy Joel Glass Houses 27:06 - Billy Joel Innocent Man and Storm Front 27:30 - Billy Joel The Bridge 27:32 - Billy Joel The Stranger 27:49 - Billy Joel River of Dreams 28:31 - your thoughts about album covers 29:01 - album covers are cool 29:17 - outro 29:55 - what are your favorite albums?
