Behind the Covers' archive includes 1 album cover documented under the "mati klarwein" design theme, all from the 1970s. The cover sits within the jazz tradition and features work by Miles Davis. Each entry below includes the cover artwork, the designers and photographers behind it, and a short story about the visual choices that defined the release.
Mati Klarwein's Afro-psychedelic painting depicts two Black faces in profile surrounded by swirling organic forms — flowers, waves, fire, and cosmic phenomena — a visual match for the album that essentially invented jazz fusion.
