Storm ThorgersonWhen we think of album covers from rock’s golden age we automatically think of two names: Storm Thorgerson and Roger Dean. For one night only - October 28th - these two giants of the art of album cover design are coming together in London to talk about their lives and show their work.

Storm Thorgerson is of course best known for his seminal cover art for Pink Floyd and many others. Roger Dean’s name is synonymous with 70s prog rock band Yes. But he is also a visionary designer working in architecture, furniture design, and original works of art. As with Thorgerson, he tells a good tale.

Both men will be on stage talking about their work, describing life with rock’s aristos, and recounting the stories behind the album covers that enthralled a generation.

Tickets for the event, being held at Logan Hall, Bedford Way, London, are £12.50 and can be ordered now through UnitEditions.com. The event runs from 7:30pm - 9pm, and promises to be quite an evening...

UPDATE, October 11th: Regrettably, this event has been cancelled due to unforseen circumstances. Refunds will be available for those who have already bought tickets.
