A clip from the BBC's Oxford Road Show from 11 February 1983 with record sleeve designer, David Band talking to Peter Powell about his design work for Spandau Ballet, Aztec Camera and Altered Images.
David Band (1959–2011) was a founding member of The Cloth - an art and design collective with Fraser Taylor, Brian Bolger and Helen Manning who met at London’s Royal College of Art. In a short but prolific period; 1983–1987, they designed many record sleeves along with their own textiles, fashion collections, and bespoke fabrics for Paul Smith, Betty Jackson and Marks & Spencer amongst others.
