CHER
"Butterfly"
1981
Photography & Art Direction,
Harry Langdon
Beverly Boulevard studio, Los Angeles, CA
"The concept for this CHER album cover was to be about the coming Apocalypse and the metamorphosis of Women from their bondage. In 1981 that was very prophetic statement. Casablanca Records paid myself for photos and Bob Mackie designed the costume. I designed the set based on a Frank Frazetta theme. Mackie and I thought it was a totally inspired idea.
CHER thought it was too 'Over the top ' and killed the shot.
The photo is still one of my favorites." - HARRY LANGDON
