On the Beat

On the Beat: David Menconi on music

News & Observer music critic David Menconi's random (and we do mean random) musings about all things related to music and culture of the "popular" variety.

Ryan Adams: Affordable art

Bookmark and Share


Raleigh expatriate Ryan Adams has turned into one of the most collectible artists around, and here's yet another Ryan-related artifact that can be yours for a price: the original artwork from the limited edition vinyl version of his 2008 album "Cardinology." There are 12 pages total, drawn in ballpoint pen by artist Leah Hayes, and each page illustrates the lyrics to one song on the album. For pricing details, check here.

Meanwhile, Adams himself looks to be having fun nowadays.

(Thanks, Dean.)
