Aubrey Powell interview available online

Posted February 23, 2015 by Floydian Slip

We’ve placed our interview with Pink Floyd sleeve designer Aubrey ‘Po’ Powell online.

You can listen to the entire 30-minute interview or read the transcript.

Powell is co-founder of Hipgnosis, which designed nearly every Floyd sleeve starting with 1968’s “A Saucerful of Secrets,” as well as iconic sleeves for other bands such as Led Zeppelin, Genesis, Paul McCartney, 10cc, Al Stewart, Black Sabbath, Alan Parsons Project and many others.

Powell knew members of Floyd before the band formed, and shared a flat for a period of time with band co-founder Syd Barrett.

Powell’s new book is “Hipgnosis: Portraits” from Thames & Hudson.
