Record Without a Cover
''Record Without a Cover'' is an album by artist Christian Marclay. It was released in 1985 by Recycled Records. The album was sold as an LP record with no cover or protective packaging, such that the damage from shipping, storing, and playing the record becomes a part of the work.
==Background and composition==
Marclay recorded ''Record Without a Cover'' in New York City with a four-track machine. The album has only one untitled track, which opens with a ten-minute section of silence.〔Ferguson 2003, p. 98.〕 During this period, the record contains audio artifacts from multiple vinyl records being played, a sound that gradually grows louder. Marclay then introduces drums and bells, which leads into samples including classical music, a tango, various sound effects, and "Caravan" by Duke Ellington. Toward the end of the record, the clicks and pops from the introduction interrupt the samples for two minutes.〔
''Record Without a Cover'' was sold without any packaging, such that the wear and tear on it gradually transformed the sound of each copy. The record's reverse side is printed with instructions not to "store in a protective package", which gradually becomes less legible as the record is played repeatedly. The record's transformation can be interpreted as a form of spontaneous composition, with each copy becoming a distinct performance.〔 Marclay wanted to ensure that "you can't ignore the medium", and the evolving sound of the record blurs what he originally recorded with the way in which the record has physically changed.〔Kelly 2009, p. 173.〕 Discussing the impact of Michael Snow's films on his work, Marclay cited ''Wavelength'' as another piece in which the audience moves "between being fooled and being aware of the illusion."〔Kelly 2011, pp. 150–1.〕 He noted that both artists focused on their medium's technical elements to draw the audience's attention to it. Music journalist Alan Licht offered Bruce Conner's films as a comparison. Licht drew a parallel between the silent beginning of ''Record Without a Cover'' and Conner's 1958 collage film ''A Movie'', which opens with an extended cut of its title card.〔
