Although sometimes the artist with the vision isn't the one listed on the album cover. I know this especially applies to those older soul lables where the producer would be known for a particular sound and have a bunch of session musicians that appeared on many of the records. I think in many instances the artists were just puppets or represented a particular image the producer was going for.
