Vera Lynn
died today; she was 103 years old. I remember the songs she sang during the war, World War II,
that is. Her songs were meant to inspire and boost moral for the war
effort. A couple of her big "Hits" were (There'll Be Bluebirds Over) The White Cliffs of Dover, and We'll Meet Again,
the title of the song used as the closing line Queen Elizabeth used in
her address to Britain a couple of months ago regarding the Corona virus
(link below).
In August 1985, she appeared on stage at Crystal Palace Bowl, with Hawkwind (link below), Doctor and the Medics (they did a great cover of the 1969 song Spirit in the Sky by Norman Greenbaum) and several other rock bands, for the finale of a benefit concert for Pete Townshend's Double-O anti-heroin charity.

20,000 vinyl LPs 156: Hawkwind ~ Warrior on the Edge of Time
Hawkwind ~ Warrior on the Edge of Time (1975) front cover
Cover designed by Comte Pierre D'Auvergne

This
entry has nothing to do with the musicians nor the music in the album.
It is all about the cover. It is a Limited edition sleeve that opens
into the shape of a shield. Includes inner sleeve with credits and
tracklisting.
It was designed by Pierre Tubbs under the pseudonym, Comte Pierre D'Auvergne. He is a British songwriter, record producer and a brilliant album sleeve designer, as witness this cover.
The
cover is 24" by 24" folded in half then folded in half again with the
record nestled in the interior. As far as I know, it is totally unique
in the history of album cover design.
