04 Nov 05 - 08:20 PM (#1597701) Subject: BS: Bad Cover Art From: Cluin I recognize all the examples on this page from a book of the 100 worst album covers that I picked up this summer in the sales bin at Coles. Couldn't pass it up. We've all seen a lot of bad cover art over the years. What's your favourite "what were they thinking?" example? |

04 Nov 05 - 09:33 PM (#1597746) Subject: RE: BS: Bad Album Cover Art From: Cluin What I can't believe is how some of those covers show some actual time and work put into them, as far as band logos, etc. Like the one above of the Manson family.

07 Nov 05 - 07:43 PM (#1599594) Subject: RE: BS: Bad Album Cover Art From: Cluin from the Billy Joel biography: Billy Joel born: 09-05-1949 birth place: New York, USA Joel went through a series of bands while young, devoting his time to music and not school. By 1970, Attila, of which he was a member, released their first album. Attila were not successful, and Joel spent some time in a mental hospital, recovering from depression. Despite this, in 1973, Joel released his first solo record, 'Cole Spring Harbor', followed by 'Piano Man', which received significant critical acclaim.... And now, from the vaults... Atilla! Yep, that's BJ on the right. Looks like the photo shoot was done in a meat-packing facility on coffee break. Check out the meat on Billy! |

08 Nov 05 - 02:10 PM (#1600107) Subject: RE: BS: Bad Album Cover Art From: Little Hawk Cluin - Thanks for the tacky C & C Music Factory cover, but that's not the one. It's bad, but it's not the one. The one I was referring to has a cover that's mostly in an unpleasant shade of turquoise green and has 2 inane looking dancers standing around in supposedly "funky" dance poses, one male, one female, both black. It must be a seriously bad album, and they must have made millions of them, because it can be found in every used CD bin in Ontario, and I don't know anyone who admits to owning a copy. Of course, I don't live around the Jane & Finch area in Toronto, so maybe that's why. |

I note that you are really attracted to or else severely bothered by: 1. Nerds! 2. Tacky sexual innuendos! 3. People who are just having good clean FUN! 4. Bizarre perversions. 3. And most of all...ALL of the above at ONCE! EEEEEEEE-YYYAAAAAUGHHH!!!!!!! But listen to this man, just listen: I KNOW one of the original 3 members of the Fernwood Trio! No joke. He lives in Orillia, Ontario, and has played for years off and on in our songcircle, and he usually does the sound (quite well) for the Orillia Folk Society. His name is Dave McMillan. Nice guy. He's still sort of recognizable...being the guy on the right, as you look at the picture...or the guy on the left if you're him in the picture. The Fernwood Trio's name was probably inspired by Fern Resort, a large vacation establishment on one of the lakes here. They used to play it frequently back in the 60's. And ya know what? He said that act got him a lot of good luck with the girls back then. Yesiree. They were the cool of cool. They were mega-cool. Well...until Dylan came along, anyway. |

08 Nov 05 - 08:26 PM (#1600349) Subject: RE: BS: Bad Album Cover Art From: Cluin See? He can try and squeeze it together as much as he wants. The fact is, Bill Shatner has a really huge head. It's been getting bigger every year. The outer man growing to resmble the inner. |

08 Nov 05 - 09:04 PM (#1600369) Subject: RE: BS: Bad Album Cover Art From: Little Hawk I was just about to point out that you had neglected the Great Shatner's album art, Cluin, but you have redeemed yourself. And it doesn't end there! I have an incredibly rare Ktel double album of Shatner that HAS to be heard. I'll play it for people on special request, but only for big bucks or certain other inducements...in some cases... One person offered me a mint condition Martin M-38 Grand Orchestra guitar for that album. No way. This kind of thing is simply priceless. |
|
08 Nov 05 - 09:57 PM (#1600400) Subject: RE: BS: Bad Album Cover Art From: Cluin Actually I kinda like that "Has Been" cover. Very stark, yet overdramatic, like the man himself. Nice design. In the other one, with Shat holding the guitar, if you look at a blow-up of it, he's not actually fingering any known chord. He's even stopped the same string twice, 3 frets apart. Looks like he doesn't know when to quit there, either. |

14 Nov 05 - 04:35 PM (#1604924) Subject: RE: BS: Bad Album Cover Art From: Little Hawk Oh YES! Thank you, BARDFORD. That is it. I had confused the color of the woman's dress with the background color of the CD. Pretty awful, isn't it? But I bet it sounds even worse than it looks! ;-) Shatner edges out Big George, Manly, but by an admittedly narrow margin. Big George definitely scores high in the charisma department. He pulls a lot of weight. |

23 Nov 05 - 01:15 PM (#1612064) Subject: RE: BS: Bad Album Cover Art From: Little Hawk It may be a real album, in a sense...what I mean is, it may be one of those humor/pornographic bizarre albums that makes fun of regular music for the chance to make some dirty or sick jokes.

21 Dec 06 - 08:10 PM (#1916260) Subject: RE: BS: Bad Album Cover Art From: Elmer Fudd I think "The Minstrel Show" cover might be for real for real. The San Francisco Mime Troupe did a very controversial musical by that name during the sixties. The actors were all in black face. It was a very politically incorrect riff on racism, and it rattled a lot of peoples' chains. Elmer |

30 Dec 06 - 11:18 AM (#1922229) Subject: RE: BS: Bad Album Cover Art From: Cluin It's an alternative vinyl-only (yes, some people still put them out) extended single cover. NOFX (a loudsurferpunkrap combo) is known for its tasteless covers, apparently. like this one. |

11 Aug 07 - 01:27 PM (#2123780) Subject: RE: BS: Bad Album Cover Art From: RangerSteve Thanks, Cluin. you made my day. But the "Spaghetti Sauce" one is actually a parody, the original being "Whipped Cream and Other Delights" by Herb Alpert. It featured a woman in the same pose, in a mountain of whipped cream, and as a parody, that's not a bad cover. |
|
11 Aug 07 - 01:55 PM (#2123797) Subject: RE: BS: Bad Album Cover Art From: Cluin I know, Steve. My parents had the Herb Alpert original (didn't everyone's?) But it's still pretty unappetizing. Claudia Wheeler... COME ON DOWN! |

10 Dec 09 - 05:09 AM (#2785198) Subject: RE: BS: Bad Album Cover Art From: Jack Blandiver You never miss a chance do you, WAV? Otherwise... At this time of year it just has to be Mario Lanza's Xmas Hymns & Carols album, which exists in various versions, the most common of which seems to be THIS. Generally you can pick up copies of this in your local charity shop in the 50p vinyl bin. Don't let the cover put you off though, for this is a top piece of work - & worth it for the version of We Three Kings alone, which is damn near definitive! |

More alarmingly, it seems it was recorded in 1979. Bang on the nail there, Johnny! Anyway, it tops the #1 slot of bad album covers compiled by Media Whores, and it's up against some very stiff competition. Be warned!

I'll have to dig up my copy of the book to show him next reheasal. His idea is certainly a candidate if we let him run with it. |
