Classic Album Covers Placed in their Google Street View Locations

The concept of placing album covers with urban scenes in their original geographic context isn’t a new one, but I think this take, which uses Google Street View and Photoshop rather than a handheld LP and a camera, somehow manages to add something novel to the genre.

I think it must be that the completed series feels like a tour of the world’s cities (though most are in London and NYC) through the lens of these recognizable covers. A good start…I hope they make more.
