"Making Vinyl" today announced its "2020 Packaging Awards" at a crisply executed "virtual ceremony" that you can (and should) watch. The entrants were dazzling as you will see. The larger "canvas" provided by vinyl records has attracted a crop of extremely creating artists (though there were also awards for CD and cassette packaging).

The eye catching image at the top is The Dank D-Funk Blend by Jazz Dispensary in the "Best Jazz, Classical or Spoken Word Vinyl (Non-Deluxe) LP Package" category. It didn't win. The winner was Gil Scott-Heron's We're New Again-A Reimagining by G S-H/Makaya McCraven.
