Persuasive Percussion
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Persuasive Percussion was an innovative LP album performed by Terry Snyder and the All Stars and released in 1959 by Command Records (run by Enoch Light). The packaging includes a the first use of the gatefold cover which, upon being unfolded, lists information about each song. The liner notes state that the album may be used to test audio equipment, due to the stereo placement of sounds independently in either the left or right channel (something common today, but extremely innovative in 1959). The album cover artwork, by Josef Albers, is minimalistic in style, consisting of an arrangement of dots. The album was the first volume in a series of Persuasive Percussion releases."Provocative Percussion" was the second release of the "Percussion" albums.Both "Persuasive Percussion" and "Provocative Percussion" had 4 volumes released over the next several years.
