The Debonaires: Final CD Artwork

Wednesday, September 29, 2010 Posted in Misc. Articles, Misc. Photos

Regular readers of the blog may remember that earlier in the year I met up with the guys from ‘The Debonaires‘ to photograph the CD artwork for their latest album…’Cry Your Blues Away’.

Well after a few months of the guys recording in the studio and the CD going to press I’m really excited to see and hear the final results. To give you an idea of what images were used, here’s a rough scan of the CD itself and all the inserts: (scan quality isn’t brilliant but at least it gives you an idea)

This latest album is without doubt their best work to date and it’s a real honour to have played a part in putting it all together; a great fun shoot with a truly great bunch of guys

You can check out more of The Debonaires by visiting their website and/or MySpace.

Also, if you missed the articles about the photo shoot with The Debonaires and the posts that followed covering the post production involved here’s some links that you may want to check out:

Keith Hammond - Really good to see the “end” product, you must be very pleased. This is also a good example to blog readers about building a relationship with your clients so they come back again and again, correct me if i’m wrong Glyn but your first shoot with The Debonairs was Feb 2009 and you also had thier first album cover in Sept 09 and here we are again a year on and album #2, where will it all end.
I suggest readers go back in your archive to Feb/Sept 09 and get it from the begining, makes good reading, well done mate, top job again.

Tim Skipper - Looks great Glen. My first CD cover is in production but the production house will not let it be seen until the release. I don’t know about you but there is just something cool about seeing a picture you took in print.

Rick Wenner - I gotta tell ya Glyn, I’m liking this album artwork. It’s got a very classic look to it, almost as if its from the 50′s. Your photos look great in the design. Congrats.

Glyn - @Keith…Thanks for the comment mate and yeah you’re exactly right regarding the photo shoot for the 1st Album.

The guys have become really good friends since we first met up which is real nice I gotta say; an unseen benefit of photography for sure

Cheers,
Glyn

Glyn - @Tim…Thanks mate. Yeah I agree it’s great to see your own work in print and real good to know that clients are equally as pleased.
Let me know when your cover is out; I’d really like to see it.

Cheers,
Glyn

Glyn - @Rick…Hey thanks Buddy; really pleased to ‘hear’ you like the results and with you saying it looks as though it’s from the 1950′s is the icing on the cake; mission accomplished huh

Well done mate,
