Hallelujah - Anyway (A collection of illustrated lyrics by Patrick Woodroffe) Paper Tiger / Dragon's World 1984 This book contains paintings, drawings and photographs along with the lyrics. The photos show cut-outs of some of his wonderful creature designs placed in staged settings with real world elements. "Don't Forget the Forget-Me-Nots!" I can cite another book of Woodroffe’s work.

The LP cover was the Louvre of Illustration art, bigger than books or magazines, the ultimate canvas. Proof that progress isn't always progress. Thanks for your comments.

First McMahon and now this... for us in the UK, Woodroffe (together with one or two others, Brian Froud and Kit Williams included) was a prime mover of the British countercultural aesthetic that so defined the seventies. His art is one of those reasons I mourn the passing of the LP, which provided such an oddly tactile platform for some of his work. A real great and, of course, another total original who remains somewhat unappreciated in his homeland. Ahhh Charley, you’ve done it again!!

This artist is totally new to me. Would love to see his book on his art techniques...think I will do a search. These are beautiful images. Wow! This artist is totally new to me.
