Q:Hello! Today I bought the 1982 "Music From the 21st Century" compilation and noticed that the cover is a gnarly Whelan illustration. I have never seen this one, do you have an original image that you can share with us? Thanks so much!
Great question! That was TIME AND AGAIN, originally commissioned by ACE for the book by Clifford D. Simak. It was a very early cover c. 1975. Many album covers featuring Michael’s art were licensed under secondary rights. This was definitely an obscure one as I hadn’t see it before.
The illustration was also collected in Michael’s first book </em>Wonderworks</em> (Donning 1979), which is long out of print but there are copies still floating around on the secondhand market.
