one or more persons obscuring or augmenting any part of their body or bodies with record sleeve(s) causing an illusion
Realised we didn’t have nearly enough pics with sleeves from the marvellous and recently departed Gil Scott-Heron (top right, with some of his fellow travellers in blues, soul and jazz). While on the subject here’s a tribute to Gil from Michael Franti.

I was wondering how to make Sleeveface BETTER and the answer came to me in a midnight spectral visitation from John Cale. He told me to make it larger and specified a pixel width of 850. So that’s what I did. He did a mini-viola solo and then promptly vanished – back to NYC or something. Fittingly we begin with this Sleeveface of Cale’s former colleague Mr Lou Reed – done by Koen Smilde of the Netherlands (bedankt!).
From now on if you’re sending me pics, make sure they’re juicy hi-res, 850 width or more. Full instructions at the bottom of the website as usual. Enjoy!
