CLASSIC ALBUM COVER - BITCHES BREW


CLASSIC ALBUM COVER   BITCHES BREW  -  MILES DAVIS   -  MATI KLARWEIN


"Bitches Brew" is without a doubt a classic album cover.  This 1970 double album was a critical and commerical success for Miles Davis receiving a Grammy Award for Best Large Jazz Ensemble Album and reaching platinum status.  The surrealist art work on the album cover was done by Abdul Mati Klarwein, a painter with a successful track record in the album cover business.  Klarwein, who studied with Salador Dali, has painted more than 40 album covers, including other classic album covers, such as for Santana's "Abraxas" and Miles Davis' "Live Evil".
