Probably my favorite blog in the world is Bob Egan’s Popspots. Bob tracks down the locations of famous music photos and album covers and juxtaposes them with their modern day locations. His latest project is to find the locations of The Velvet Underground and Lou Reed images. Here’s a few below but be sure to check out his full post here:
