catalogue is a compendium of sumptuous delight."

"Warhol is among the greatest album-cover designers of all time,
with a few classics that every record collector has to have. The
Rolling Stones' "Sticky Fingers" with a giant close-up of a
jeans-clad crotch, working zipper and underwear underneath was pure
Warhol--proactive yet populist, and hard to ignore. His peelable
banana on the cover of "The Velvet Underground & Nico" (1967) with
the suggestive pink banana underneath and giant signature below it
is without parallel. Many, many more album covers have been
virtually forgotten, but all show the care and craft Warhol brought
to even the most routine commercial work."
