Margo Z. Nahas: Van Halen, Seals and Crofts, Fleetwood Mac, Prince, Tom Petty, Stevie Wonder and working with many others as an in-demand album artist Ep 7

Margo Z. Nahas is the only female she knows of that was doing album artwork when she was creating cover art for bands like Van Halen, Stevie Wonder, Seals and Crofts and others. Together with her husband Jay Vigon, they’ve worked with and helped to create some of the most iconic music artwork including the cover of Van Halen’s 1984 album cover (the smoking baby), the braille embossed cover of Stevie Wonder’s Secret Life of Plants and logos for Tom Petty and Prince’s Purple Rain album cover and film. She shares the story behind the iconic Van Halen cover, and many others including the crank dildo on the set of the filming of a Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers music video.
