El artista estadounidense es considerado como uno de los pioneros del concepto y el diseño de las portadas de discos.
Burden estudió Diseño Arquitectónico en UC Berkeley. Después de una temporada desilusionante con un estudio de arquitectura, Burden diseñó una casa para Mama Cass, quien tomó nota de su orientación visual y le sugirió que pusiera su talento en las portadas de los discos. Poco después, Burden diseñó la portada Blue de Joni Mitchell, álbumes para Steppenwolf, Three Dog Night y The Mamas and the Papas, todos ganadores de oro y platino. Burden creó la primera portada de Crosby, Stills y Nash, Morrison Hotel de The Doors y cuatro portadas de los discos de The Eagles, incluyendo Desperado, varias para Jackson Browne, Judee Sill, Laura Nyro y muchos. Creó portadas de álbumes para Neil Young durante 35 años. Sus trabajos fueron nominados cuatro veces para los Premios Grammyy en 2010, ganó en los 52º Premios Grammy por Mejor Empaquetado o Empaquetado Especial de Edición Limitada para el Vol. Neil Young The Archives. 1 1963-1972.
