"Throughout the fifties and sixties, the Blue Note record label embodied one word:  style.  BLUE NOTE 2, companion volume to BLUE NOTE  ... features over 200 more examples of the cutting0-edge album covers designed for Sonny Rollins, John Coltrane, Thelonious Monk, Charles Mingus, and many other jazz greats.  From classic images to rare sleeves coveted by collectors, and including a foreward by ruth Lion, wife of BLUE NOTE founder Alfred Lion, plus essays by Dean Rudland and Grham Marsh, BLUE NOTE 2 is the ultimate entree into the smoky days of Birdland, dark glasses, and E-Type Jags."

Author's Note:  "This is not intended as a discography, just some more essential Blue Note sleeves.  All illustrations are taken from actual covers, most being original issues, which accounts for why some are not pristine."

There is a picture in the front of Blue Note chiefs Alfred Lion and Francis Wolff in the mid-50's.

Some of the covers are as follows:  (There are many more that I did not list -- If you have a question, please e-mail me)
