Benguiat Zenedipity used by Loring Eutemey for the cover of Operation Lovebirds. The easy listening album by Danish pianist and composer Bent Fabricius-Bjerre (1924–2020), better known as Bent Fabric, was released in 1967, at the height of Zenedipity’s popularity. The cover photo is by Robert Hermes of the National Audubon Society. See The Drunken Penguin for another bird-themed album by Bent Fabric, also with a cover design by Eutemey.
