Roger Dean studied furniture design in college, which equipped him to do this album cover for Walking Circles, by Midnight Sun. Here’s what Dominy Hamilton and Carla Capalbo wrote about the art in the 1975 Roger Dean art book Views:

“Dean decided that after 5,000 years of chair design the only sufficiently different variation as yet unattempted, as far as he knew, was the bio-chemical approach. Dean's proposal was based on a mechanism favoured by lizards for re-growing their tails. Dean finally abandoned this project because of lack of facilities.”

I have a free email newsletter that I think everyone should follow if they like retro sci-fi, art history, or this blog.

It's like an extended edition of my art book - You learn more about artists I mentioned in passing. I most recently covered Roger Dean.
