I always had a soft spot for Ramblin Jack Elliott (born Elliot Adnopoz in Brooklyn yes the original Jewish Beat Cowboy before Zimmerman 🙂 ) not only because of the obvious Dylan connection but because the early Topic LPs are beautifully designed especially the drawn ones which I copied for Trailer Star’s fake album Suit of Nettles. Spot the influence…
The artist on these Topic albums (I also have a beautiful Sarah Ogun Gunning album of the same period) was probably the same artist but I cannot trace who it is at all.
The Elliotts have what appears to be a signature but Bosard C my best guess comes up with nothing ..
This my collection so far as Ramblin Jack has 50 releases a way to go…
In situ Lincoln 2008..note the influences..
