Roger Dean, Blue Demon, 1972Used In 1974 By The Band Gravy Train For Their Album Staircase To The Day.

Roger Dean, ‘Blue Demon’, 1972 ”Used in 1974 by the band Gravy Train for their album ’Staircase to the day’. I painted this because I loved the colours of the background it was that simple. An interesting band I always thought that they should have done better. Strangely enough the most copied part of the album cover was the logo that I made for “Staircase to the Day” with the steps floating up into the sky.” Source
