84. Capoeira Twins (w/ Banksy original for the album art)

Posted by Bill Rippel on January 26, 2021 - 1:19am

Year: 1999
Record label: Blowpop Records  
Worth Today: $6,052.00*

Any vinyl record with Banksy as the cover artist will sell for big bucks at auction. The mysterious British artist and activist was on The Capoeira Twins’ “4 x 3/ Truth Will Come Out” record. Banksy designed the cover art for the limited-release, 12” promotional record from Blowpop Records.

Only 100 of these have been pressed. Banksy reportedly offered to create the cover for no charge after befriending Blowpop Records’ owner in the nineties. Released in 1999, the cover was done in the classic Banksy tradition: aerosol stencil on a cardboard record sleeve. The unframed record measures 31.8cm x 30.5cm. 

Simon Keighley Yeah, this cover was done in the classic Banksy tradition - what a price tag. Thanks for sharing, Bill.
