Focusing on the semiotics, poetics, and rhetoric of album covers,
"Image-Music-Text" gives a serious study of this neglected art
form. Working from the assumption that record sleeves may be found
to represent a visual genre in its own right, the essays in this
book engage in various ways with the analysis of what one might
call the pictorial component of recorded music. The contributions
from scholars in many different fields run the whole gamut from
close readings of individual covers to more theoretical or
philosophical explorations of the aesthetic nature and artistic
value of album covers.
