Especially for billboard art where you need to communicate your message to
someone who is paying attention to the traffic around them at 60mph.  Most
billboard designers forget that...

Speaking of "less is more" - one of my all-time favorite album covers, for
the country-rock band Poco.  Designed by comedian/actor Phil Hartmann
before he became famous, while he was working for his brother who managed a
lot of these bands.  We even have a litho of this hanging on our wall,
signed by two of the orignal band members:
