A typeface designed by a French (?) family duo used for an album recorded by an Italian family duo: Domino (J.C. Demarchi & M. Demarchi), released by Mecanorma in 1972, serves for the monochrome cover of Clouds (Lino Castiglione & Pasquale Castiglione), released on Octopus Records (OTP 0293) in 1975.
Via What Is Wrong With Grooving:
The slightly African influenced and extraordinary grooving flute tune “Games” is my long time favorite on this lovely Italian Library album. […] There was also a reissue, released 2016 on Spettro (SP/L04) records. Also from Italy but comes with a different cover artwork.

While the clouds on the front cover are rather dark, they have cleared up on the back.

Taranto is a digital incarnation of Domino from 2020. You could notice some of these details in certain glyphs.
Good call, Jay. Chris Corrado mentions that his design is “inspired by the aesthetics of 70s Sci-Fi movie posters and old record covers.” There’s a good chance that some of the items he looked at included Domino. I’ve added it as a related typeface.
