What difference would it make.... that's the clients logo. You can see in the sketch up they sketched that logo, so they must have designed the original or at least the concept because it looks a lot like the other cover.
99.9% of the time the client never has the original logo or even a good version that is usable, you always have to recreate it and if you are good at what you do it should look the same.
Just because the guy gave the client what he wanted exactly including the logo regardless if he designed the original.... you knock him? I could see if he took someone's cover and photoshop'd their heads like a mixtape cover on a movie poster... but the logo would have to be recreated to apply the layer style, etc.... and I doubt the client would approve anything less than the logo being exactly like it has been on every other cover.
I don't like the chrome text but if that's what the client wanted... it's cool looks clean.. client is always right... errrrr:ermm:
