Album Covers that use the italicised futura font scheme

Alright, this probably sounds like a stupid question, and that is probably overshadowed by the fact that it is. But this is something I've kept in mind for awhile.

This was the font scheme that Barbara Kruger gave way for by using it. And now that I have some sort of infatuation with font schemes, but, yeah, I pretty much do for that one.
I don't know how to post images here, but Ultra Vivid Scene uses it in
his albums. And I noticed it was on the Public Image album someone posted in the icon thread.

there are a couple of threads about album cover fonts. i'd pull them up from the archives for you, but i'm too tired and lazy right now.

I bought that Ultra Vivid Scene album on ebay. The listing said it was a CD but they sent me a Cassete, so I never listened to it.

Futura=high modernism
It was the definitive caption/chyron typeface way back in the day. That's typeface, not font, though of course it's a font now.
