In Pipe Dreams, Alan Aldridge reveals an early life very different from the later glamour of his rock and pop associations and artistic success.
Alan Aldridge burst upon the creative world of 1960s London, just like the Beatles for whom he worked. His imaginative designs and intoxicating, colourful images captured the dreams and hallucinations of a generation in The Beatles Illustrated Lyrics, a deluxe edition of which was published in 2013; on album covers for The Who, Cream and Elton John; on the notorious Chelsea Girls poster for Andy Warhol; and, as an Art Director on innovative covers for Penguin Books.
