= Nice promotional poster for the Revolver album after the design that Klaus Voormann made for the album. "Voormann told The Guardian that John Lennon approached him during the recording of Revolver: "He just said, 'Got any ideas for our new album cover?' I thought: 'Shit! Doing a cover for the most famous band in the world!' At moments like that, you could suddenly forget that they had once been scruffy little Liverpool boys. I thought, 'My God, I cant do that!'"
The Beatles invited Voormann to the Abbey Road studio for a preview of what they'd recorded. "When I heard the music, I was just shocked, it was so great," he said. "So amazing. But it was frightening because the last song that they played to me was 'Tomorrow Never Knows.'"
The lyrics of "Tomorrow Never Knows," Revolver's final track, were adapted from Timothy Leary's book The Psychedelic Experience: A Manual Based on the Tibetan Book of the Dead. The use of tape loops, backward recordings and Ringo Starr's hypnotic drumming helped create the psychedelic vibe - and influenced Voormann's cover art." (F.
