Here is a really interesting print by Klaus Voorman, from December 2000, which echoes The Beatles' Revolver album.

Yes, he really was a fantastic artist, and not just in that sort of psychedelic collage sort of thing.  Just his straight artwork was beautifully rendered.

I was surprised when I saw some of his stuff...the line drawings were clever but he really has the talent as an artist.

I've only ever really seen the work he did for The Beatles - Revolver, Anthology and the above print. I'd love to see examples of his other work. His eye for detail is amazing!

Anyone else have examples of his work?

By the way, Klaus was doing a signing at a Beatles convention in Liverpool a few years back. When I found out he was going to be there, I rushed around all the shops in Liverpool to find a vinyl copy of Revolver! I DID eventually find one! I took it back to the convention and he signed it for me - it looks absolutely awesome!!!

I think this picture should have been on the inside of Revolver at the time since it goes with the classic album cover.

Wow, that's really amazing! I like how he uses a simple style but turns it into a really complicated and intricate piece of art.


You're so vain, you probably think this post is about you.

I love his simple use of lines to create them and their instruments... It's very beautiful and he makes it so intricate... Just like Indica, it reminds me of my style of drawing.

Very cool picture.

Ok, I'm sorry to bump up this thread again.

But I'm sort of confused. Where is Paul in that picture?  The eyes? Because they look like George's to me...

Right, the eyes .. and the bass, the electronic devices ... he was behind the music.
