Blind Faith - Blind Faith - 1969

Bob Seideman, photographer and artist, who is known primarily for his photos of Janis Joplin and the Grateful Dead was engaged to do the album cover and came up with the concept in which the band agreed. The basic idea behind this concept was: technology and purity.

Mick Milligan
, a jeweller at the Royal College of Art and friend of Eric Clapton was commissioned to make the spaceship. He made it out of wood, chromed with silver.


The cover was nameless – only the wrapping paper told the buyer who the artist was and the name of the album. All ingredients for a spectacular release!
