The Seventies were just an interesting time for us because we were building the brand of the name but also varying the style of the music on each of the albums we did. Very creative time of us.

Well, you know, it's been interesting because an album is just a snapshot of where you are at that time. Not all pictures of everybody are just in jeans and a 'T' shirt, or a ball gown. You have many different sides and this is a snapshot of where you are at that time.

Book-jacket design may become a lost art, like album-cover design, without which late-20th-century iconography would have been pauperized.

I personally really like getting a proper album with artwork and everything.

All my album artwork is body painting.

I'm a big fan of '70s records where artists could draw on whatever influences they wanted.

In the '70s, you had to come up with an album every year whether you were ready or not.

I hadn't been a recording artist all that long when albums came on the scene, and I was one of the first singers to point the way to how varied an album's contents could be.

Apple, iTunes, and streaming services have made the single a more easy thing to access. What that's done has made the album as a collection of songs almost meaningless. But an album that has a concept or story or reason to be an album, if anything, has more meaning now than it ever has.

I'm a child of the 70's; influenced mostly by albums that had a wide variety of style.
