@kordumb Thank you for sharing this — they’re fantastic, iconic wordmarks. I would gladly hang framed prints of any of these in my house, not just near the stereo, but all over the place.

@schuth agreed! I’m not a big enough buff to know if/how prevalent these font styles were with each person, but for the musicians I’m familiar with (Charlie Parker, Thelonious Monk, John Coltrane, Quincy Jones, etc.) they just feel so right.

@kordumb Yes, they do. Somehow, the designers captured the sensibilities of the music — these exude the musical personalities that give them meaning.
