40 Year Anniversary Album
‘WOMAD 1982: In Somerset a festival of new and traditional arts from four continents and 20 countries came together for the first time. Real World Studios 2021: 40 years later the process of restoring the audio tapes of that original festival have revealed vital and historic performances. This album is a window onto highlights of three days of amazing music.’
My brief was to design the CD and LP artwork inspired by the 1982 Womad programme, together with recreating the original poster for the event. We delved into the archives to pullout what we could find, doing a bit of restoration on the way! We went for a gloss finish for that 80s look and used a metallic gold for the typography on the cover.
The LP: Double album, gatefold, printable inner sleeves.
CD: 3 panel digi, double CD, 16 page booklet.
