The band had style and the slick black suits helped produce what was to be one of polydor records first monochrome album covers. Martyn made album cover photographs for the jam, blondie, the cure and others over the course of a 20 year career. After a period assisting acclaimed photographer gered mankowitz, martyn goddard became a regular face on the new wave music scene of the seventies and early eighties. This was an era of lp picture discs with serious budgets requiring creative photography. Photographing acts such as blondie, the jam, the cure, sham 69, ian dury, and toyah lead to commissions from queen and elton john’s rocket records in the rock mainstream.
