Jazz Covers. 45th Ed. | TASCHEN

Jazz Covers. 45th Ed. is an exuberant visual anthology by Joaquim Paulo, a lifelong jazz vinyl collector and consultant for major record labels, with editorial curation by Julius Wiedemann. This 512?page volume assembles the boldest and most iconic jazz album artwork from the 1940s through the early 1990s, celebrating how designers visually captured the spirit, energy, and cultural rhythms of the music itself. Each cover is reproduced alongside contextual details—artist, label, photographer, illustrator, and year—inviting readers to experience jazz history as a dialogue between sound and visual expression. Jazz Covers is an indispensable and beautifully designed homage to the art of the record sleeve for music lovers, design enthusiasts, and cultural historians alike.
