Recordworks of the Avant-garde

[20 pp]., 21.5 x 18 cm., staple-bound
Edition size unknown
A sales list I compiled of artists' recordings many, many years ago when I worked for Lake Galleries and D & E Lake bookstore. The catalogue is not dated, but I'm guessing it was from around 1996.
The list includes records made by artists and records with cover graphics designed by artists. The former includes discs by Laurie Anderson, Katharina Fritsch, Al Hansen, Martin Kippenberger, Milan Knizak, Alison Knowles, Yoko Ono, Michael Snow, Lawrence Weiner, La Monte Young and others. The latter includes Francesco Clemente's cover for Mick Jagger, Salvador Dali's cover for Jackie Gleason, General Idea's design for several Rough Trade LPs, Jenny Holzer for Todd Levin, Mike Kelley for Sonic Youth, Robert Rauschenberg for Talking Heads, Gerhard Richter for Sonic Youth, and Andy Warhol for Paul Anka, The Velvet Underground, Diana Ross, The Rolling Stones, Miguel Bose, Aretha Franklin, John Lennon, etc., etc.
Additionally there are examples of experimental music (The Residents, the Hafler Trio, Brian Eno) and composers (John Cage, Steve Reich, Philip Glass, etc).
