28 Jul 11 - 08:10 AM (#3197209) Subject: RE: Wort album covers ever? From: Jack Campin You realize you're really into this stuff when you need reminding that "A Taste of Dick Black" is funny. "My Pussy Belongs to Daddy" looks like the sort of album Ed Cray or John Mehlberg might have been involved in. Were they? (The cover is entirely appropriate for the track list). |
28 Jul 11 - 08:17 AM (#3197211) Subject: RE: Wort album covers ever? From: Wesley S To be fair - it looks like a lot of these records were made back in the 70's. And I'd hate to see how any of US looked or dressed back then. |

29 Jul 11 - 10:35 AM (#3197908) Subject: RE: Wor(s)t album covers ever? From: GUEST,Chris B (Born Again Scouser) The Blind Faith album. 'All Around My Hat' by Steeleye Span. 'Gottle O'Geer' by Fairport. Almost anything by Roger Dean. I recall 'Fear of Music' by Talking Heads as well. Just black. How much more black could it be? The answer is none. More black. |
