Strange Prince Album Cover...

http://www.theartrocks.co...odden.html

Some kind of project where graphic designers and artists design album covers for their favorite artists. These are not official album covers, just made up ones.

Of course, Prince made the list. But the photo used is one i've never seen before. I cant quite pinpoint what period of his career its from...

Trippy.

Does the head match the body, or is just the work that's been done on the pic.

I never saw the pic before either, he looks young though, maybe Controversy era?

Hmmm. Looks about 1982. Maybe its not his body. I can't imagine him posing in that gear.

I think they photoshopped his face or head onto someone else's body - that's a way cool design, although perhaps a little impractical lol

Cool site, by the way...one of my (not so) secret desires in life is to design wrecka covers for a living (...CDs, 8-tracks, whatev...you know what I mean, sheesh).

as for the era...squints a bit...looks an awful lot like a dirty mind-era pic they used there, but it's still odd. out of all the suits n'such they coulda photoshopped his head on, they had to do that suit?

Looks like a pic from the '50s with Prince's head attached.

He looks really young... like 17 or 18...

...AND, he's holding a Gibson Les Paul, which he used 2 play back in the early years...

I think it's him... look at the hands.
