(trig's/flickr)Keeping Album Art Alive
Album cover art, a long-celebrated vehicle for visual artists, has changed dramatically as its canvas has shrunk - from 12-inch LP's to 1-inch iPod screens. But reports of its death may be greatly exaggerated. Today, we explore the fate of album art in the digital music age with Josh Koppel, who creates digital liner notes and art for the company TuneBooks.com; and Nathan Brackett, an editor at Rolling Stone magazine. Also on the show: The Dears, a band known for its dark, cinematic art-pop, performs selections from its new album, "Gang of Losers," live in the studio.
