My guess is the lettering was done with a copy machine, or back then a photo stat machine. One of Lee’s weaker albums in my opinion, but still a great Reid Miles cover.

Just like a previous comment..kinda easy on a computer vector package, but even to have the balance and finess is the key here, on top of the smooth distortion. I have not come across any lessons that explain this by hand, I have done many distorted letters byhand, and I have used grid and free hand technics. I can see the idea of the photographic /projection technique..that would probably be the most efficient method in a production environment...the design of those blue notes are copied to this very day..but never done as well. yeah..this lettering is awesome!

That kinda thing is way too easy these days with computers/Photoshop etc -- it makes me wonder how they did it back then -- if it was all done just by hand, or maybe done photographically somehow, or what. It's really great, however they did it! wow, love that krazy stretched-out psychedelic lettering!!
