CD cover

Mott the Hoople were an English rock band well known for being a part of the popular glam rock scene of the mid-70's. The lead singer/songwriter, Ian Hunter, continued on for many years as a solo artist. The record company asked for an illustrated solution, and because Ian's hair and glasses are so iconic, that's where we started. This 2-CD set features Mott the Hoople's notorious hit, "All the Young Dudes" written by their fan and friend, David Bowie - which was also featured in the soundtrack of "Juno"

I really liked the imagery of this poster. I think it makes a very bold statement. Inspirational for our upcoming poster design.
