I was beginning to think I was the only one who had read the press releases about him being commissioned :brow Title: Re: What became of Peter Blake's Pet Sounds illustrations? Post by: Bicyclerider on September 09, 2006, 07:57:21 AM He asked to be paid a reasonable sum of money for his efforts?

I like the album cover, it's very cute but imagine what it would be with Peter Blake's ideas. I suspect he was creative & would not repeat the Sgt. Pepper multi-face, it would be different & extraordinary.
For those interested, check this blog which too bad isn't updated: http://uncanny1.blogspot.ru/2006/02/peter-blake-to-illustrate-ltd-edition.html Title: Re: What became of Peter Blake's Pet Sounds illustrations? Post by: Bicyclerider on November 10, 2016, 06:40:43 PM I suspect it never came to fruition. Didn't Peter Blake do a limited edition book of illustrations for That Lucky Old Sun that was a commercial and critical flop?

The multifaces were so sparse on the GIOMH cover, it was like a 70th-anniversary parade of WWII vets. Title: Re: What became of Peter Blake's Pet Sounds illustrations?

To rephrase, it would be cool if Peter Blake was 1st to create sth. to the BBs album but it would be different idea, not multiface (iir, Paul came up with that idea of celebrities. or was it John with the list of celebs? Every Beatle?). |
