For example, the dominant orange and brown hues and elongated faces on the front of Rubber Soul seem to embody the sound of the record. Certainly, the cover of a Beatles album conveyed a message about the music it was wrapped around. Rather than a merely functional object to protect the disc, it was elevated to a stylish accessory. There was an emotional connection to the artifact carrying the sound, and this bond was strengthened by the LP sleeve. When The Beatles albums were first released, the listener enjoyed a tangible relationship with the music in the grooves of a record. The process of carefully slipping the disc out of the sleeve, cleaning it and lowering the stylus provides a personal involvement in the reproduction of the music. But there has never been a more romantic or thrilling medium for music than a long-playing twelve-inch disc. Since it was recorded, The Beatles music has been heard on a variety of formats from chunky reel-to-reel tapes and eight-track cartridges to invisible computer files.
