The Royal Mail has taken on music for their next batch of stamps set to debut in January. But, one things missing that no one reported on. From the 10 album covers selected, no a single one of them is buy a female artist. Surely all of the artists are from the UK and feature some great monumental albums such as The Clash’s London Calling and Blur’s Parklife (click below for full list), but not a single female artist? Not even Kate Bush’s The Red Shoes or something from Annie Lennox (not even the Eurythmics). Amy Winehouse’s Back To Black deserves a nod. It’s really just sad that all the Q-heads keep deciding what is credible and what is not with their music snobbery and knack for sexism.
- Blur – Parklife
- David Bowie - The Rise And Fall of Ziggy Stardust and The Spiders From Mars
- The Clash – London Calling
- Coldplay – A Rush Of Blood To The Head
- Led Zeppelin – Led Zeppelin IV
- New Order – Power, Corruption & Lies
- Mike Oldfield – Tubular Bells
- Pink Floyd – The Division Bell
- Primal Scream – Screamadelica
- The Rolling Stones – Let It Bleed
i like the choices though. i was so happy to discover that kuwait has ACTUAL stamps, rather than ink stamped onto mail. maybe we should push to design kuwait’s stamps. i wonder who takes care of stuff like that in this country…
i’d love to have a hand in designing the stamps. lol. They probably feature a boat and and eagle or something third-worldly …
This is awful.
And I agree with everything you said…
