Word In Your Attic 79 (audio version) - Album sleeve designer Simon Halfon strums enviable gift from Paul Weller


Listen Later

Simon Halfon, the former plugger at Stiff Records who designed sleeves for Weller, the Style Council, George Michael, Astrud Gilberto, the Who, Oasis and many others. Includes carting four bin-liners of chainmail to Top Of The Pops with Tenpole Tudor, the collages of Peter Blake, the magic of Dezo Hoffmann, a sweet letter from Tom Hanks and the fraught tale of the "kamikaze" original cover design for Listen Without Prejudice Vol 1.
