[Heeplist] Ioannis / New Heep cover

[Iain Barnes]

I think his artwork has been great and agree that I dont think artwork is as 
important or striking on CD.  The vinyl covers were massively important.  I 
know Ioannis was working on the Outsider cover so Heep mustn't have liked it 
or maybe just had another idea of their own.  It's down to personal taste 
and at times something one person likes won't be liked by another.  Heep are 
continuing with Ioannis for the bootleg series so perhaps it's Frontiers who 
want something different.

Having been a teenager in a country where UH have no airplay at all, back in 
the 80's the only reason that led me to discover them was their album 
covers. In my opinion it's a decisive point to keep on with high standards, 
since this is how I choose whether to listen or not to an album when I'm not 
familiar with the band.

Cheers everyone! Looking forward to the new album!!
