  • Episode 483-Deep Dive On the Art Of Hugh Syme
    2024/11/01

    This Week on America’s Podcast, we’re diving deeper than a hipster at a coffee shop, and our guest is none other than the whimsical wizard of album art himself, Favio Vegas! That’s right, folks; this isn’t just your average podcast episode; it’s a splendid showcase of Hugh Syme, the artist behind album covers so iconic they should have their own fan clubs—right next to the bands they represented!

    Join us as we venture through the hallowed halls of album artistry, where Hugh’s covers have graced records from Rush, where time-traveling is a casual Sunday, to Warrant, who apparently needed a lot more than cherry pie! We’ll be counting down our seven favorite album covers by this magician of design. Spoiler alert: it’s like choosing a favorite child, if your children were all adorned in colorful vinyl!

    And, as if that wasn’t exciting enough, it’s time for our Tracks of the Week! Jerry breaks out his air guitar with "On The Loose" by Saga, while Favio presents his pick, "The Gate/Invited." By Tesla It sounds a bit like a mysterious invitation to an underground party—just make sure you bring the right snacks! Then, we cruise into the majestic sounds of "Yours Is No Disgrace" by Yes, because nothing says “classy” like three albums' worth of the word “yes.” Finally, we wrap it up with Mooger and his smooth serenade, "Stay With Me Tonight" by Quiet Riot. You know, just in case you were feeling too secure and needed a little room for chaos!

    So, until next week, pick up your paintbrushes and remember: if you think you can paint like Hugh Syme, you might just be setting yourself up for an artistic intervention!
