BLUEGRASS COVERS

Sharing bluegrass records cover art, labels, inserts and liner notes. Click on any image for a large, easy-to-read (sometimes even printable!) version of that image. Enjoy.

NOTE: Blogspot has recently changed the default when you click on blogspot-hosted images so that they open in a viewer that doesn't easily allow for zooming in on oversized images, at least on my machine/browser. This kind of defeats the purpose of these posts. The easy way around that is to right click (control click on a mac) and choose open link in new browser or new tab in the drop down menu that appears.
