I dig this idea. As an old guy, I used to discover music by flipping through the CD racks at the record store. Sometimes a name would catch my attention, sometimes the artwork. Doesn't mean I would pick it up automatically if I liked the cover. Sometimes it depended on the record label, possibly giving me a clue as to what it might sound like, or a promo sticker telling me if I like those bands I may like this, whatever. Point is, being attracted to a cover makes me curious about the music. Unless I recognize the name and know they suck.

Carry on, looking forward to it.

I'd love to see your signature/links too, but the huge and obnoxious ones have caused me to block all signatures.
