Missing Album Covers... Help!

[Yesspaz]

Howdy. As you may or may not know, I'm sort of unofficially in charge of finding and adding the album covers to the tags so that they'll show up in the WPN window. When a new album is added R.L can do a quick search for the cover at amazon.com, but if that turns up nil then it moves to me. 98% of the covers are easy to find, but there are a few here and there that absolutely refuse to be found. If you know where to find these covers, or have the album and can scan it as a .jpg, then PLEASE help. These are the elusive evil covers than run from me. They are:

artist-album:


Everness - Voyage of Being
Mathematicians - Irrational Numbers
Room - Overdog


Yep, that's them. Thanks. I'll update this periodically.

The Ananga-Ranga cover is here:

Cool cover from a band I've never heard of! :eek:

[fremder99]

Here's the La Maschera... cover

http://www.prog-nose.org/nederlands/albums_2003/la_maschera_di_cera_il_grande_labirinto.htm


OK... here's my secret ;)

Google is great, but the "dogpile" can be better!! Try the image search at www.dogpile.com. It's a meta-search engine that does pretty well

[fremder99]

This might be the Scheigho cover (attached)

[mossy]

I don't believe Erebus has a cover, but was an artist produced demo sent to radio stations at the time. I know it was never released commercially.

[fremder99]

Here's a site with several FSB covers, including II.

[Yesspaz]

Rock on Fremder!

Ok, Q #1, can anyone confirm that self-titled Schleigho cover?
and Q #2, can anyone confirm Erebus has nor cover?

If I can get two proggers saying the same thing, I'll go with it!

hahahahaha! :D

[moses]

I can confirm the Schleigho cover. That's it. I consider myself to be an authority since I donated that CD.

Hmmm, mine is all black and white though... must be because it's a reprint.

Can't say about the Erebus. Sorry Spaz...

[KeithieW]

There is no cover for the Erebus. It was a demo sent to radio stations.

I can supply you with a cover pic if you want one.

"Meet Me at the Water's edge......................"

As in a picture of the band? Yeah, that'd work. .jpg please. Just post it here.

And thanks Moses for the Schleigho info.

Actually it's just a photo I took of a lake side scene but it is "at the waters edge."

As the album is called Cycles maybe a picture of a pair of bikes would be better. :D

or maybe the female cycles.....that would be a picture! Actually, it would be good on an Italian Prog group, like PMS or something like that:eek:

If there isn't a cover for a particular track, I prefer adding a picture of the artist or leaving it blank. Just my druthers.

[Yesspaz]

Ok, I need help with another cover - .jpg.

Artist - Album

Man in Space - For Medical Purposes Only

[fremder99]

Spaz,

Here ya go!

[fremder99]

Yesspaz,

I just noticed that the Mastermind live "Tokyo Rain" had no cover in WPN. If you're looking for it, I found it here:

http://www.musicaldiscoveries.com/reviews/lisabou.htm

Cheers!

[Yesspaz]

Thanks for the Man in Space cover Fremder. As for the Mastermind, I have all their covers, but we can't seem to get MM ripped right, so I add the cover, but then MM has to be deleted and redone. I'ma wait until the MM is fixed before I add the covers. Thanks anyhow. For future time saving, unless I post here that I can't find one, don't worry about it. 99% are easy to find, but occasionally I'll hit a dead end - that's when I need help:D

[Yesspaz]

Ok. Help me find this cover!

Everness - Voyage of Being

[fremder99]

Spaz,

All my attempts have failed as well. The closest is this page:

http://daluz.web.pt/cds%20released/content%20CDs%20released.htm

which uses a "Sold Out" icon in place of the cover. Perhaps an Email to them will get a copy of the cover...

[Yesspaz]

That's crazy! He's got the rest of them...

[Yesspaz]

Ok, just played on Aural Moon:

Magma - Wurdah Itah (Live 200) - 2001

I looked for this album and only found it, but it was released in 1974. The track titles are identical, but the running lengths are longer across the board on the 2001 cuts - i.e. the ones on AM. Is the one on AM a re-release? Here's the 1974 cover. Is it the same cover? Any help would be hot.

[Yesspaz]

Mathematicians - Irrational Numbers
Room - Overdog
Rod Argent - Red House

[Yesspaz]

Tony Spade - The Human Element

Hey Spaz! Here's Argent:

and Tony Spada:

I'm having no luck with the other two... Will keep looking...

Nope. I'll have to scan the cover I guess. It's a box set of a live concert where they played the Kobaian trilogy live.

Ok that'd be good, because I already added the other cover after not hearing anything, so presently it has the wrong cover. Whenever you scan it just post it here and I'll take it from there. Can you scan Mathematicians, Room, or Everness while you're at it?:D

Mathematicians yes. Room and Everness I don't think I own...

The cover for Tabula Rasa's Tabula Rasa on the playlist is incorrect. The right cover looks like this:

Then what is this one the cover too?

I believe Methem is correct. The cover you have here is for a reissue (I think). :)

I've done some searches today, and it seems that the image you have here is actually the cover for a classical-ethnic-crossover album called "Tabula Rasa" by another group who also happen to be called Tabula Rasa. They're obviously/possibly from Germany.

A couple of refs:

I can see this. I had a hell of a time trying to dig up info on them when I went to do my thread.

There's all kind of links to other things.

Sometimes I think we should just take our time and make sure the covers are right the first time. It's not like the artist gives a hoot anyway.

;)

See what standard you have to live up to?

How does it feel to be on the receiving end of a jab?

Gotcha!:p

Keep on getting those covers up....and I'll go back to listening to the Association :mad: and doing tax returns.

With "wrong information" I was of course just referring to the fact that this particular page has wrong song titles (from the Finnish TR) for this album by the punk band...

But let's forget this... :)

-Methem

[moses]

Apparently there are at least 3 bands named Tabula Rasa. Perhaps all of them have a self-titled album.

I have heard the Pittsburgh-based one. I ended up at one of their shows once. I was really bored one night, and a friend's band was playing a show nearby, opening for them. Now the friend's band (not a real close friend, more of an acquaintance) has pretty awful vocals so I decided I wouldn't go unless the other band was good.

I looked them up online and found some sound samples which intrigued me enough to go. Tabula Rasa impressed me enough to walk away that night with one of their CDs. It's basically prog and math rock played through a punk filter. At one time I thought they would sound good on the Moon but then rethought it. Yesspaz would probably really enjoy them though.

I don't have their self-titled disc, I got the newer one, "The Role of Smith" and I like it a lot. The proper homepage for the Pittsburgh Tabula Rasa is http://www.tabularasaonline.com if you want to see one of the TRs we're NOT talking about.

Of course, now I wonder if the German TR is also a prog-influenced band.

Had a feeling you had heard of them.

This is great! I live for such confusion. Could you upload the PA TB cover, maybe we could randomly have them pop up.

On second thought, maybe not. I just noticed a song in the now playing by Montreaux called "Mandolin Rising". I initially thought it was mixed up with Montrose. He has two songs called "Mandolina" and "Leo Rising".

I'm sorry.....this is how my tortured statistical covered brain works. I'm just lucky I can remember how to tie my shoes.

Good idea about the German one. Interesting question!

Now I better go back to screwing up at work.
