TOTALLY off topic but too funny not to share.


50 worst album covers.... Yup, what were they thinking?

Seriously, what's more disturbing than anything to me is that someone apparently still has those albums available to photograph.

Also slightly less disturbing, is some of those '70s fashion statements.

cover from the early 70s as an "honorable" mention.

I don't know about worst, though some are pretty bad, others are just odd. Number 25 seems OK, not great, but hardly worthy of too much ridicule. Number 26 reminds me of the Dustin Hoffman movie "Tootsie."

I kind of liked the spoof of the Herb Albert whipped cream cover. That one's pretty funny.

Bill Ranck Blacksburg, Va.

Don't remember that one, got a link?

The one I can't believe they omitted was the Beatles "butcher" cover:

# 39 is my all-time favourite....that one just breaks me up...

wider than the other!

.....Prolly a glass eye.

27 is a parody of the Tijuana Brass 'Whipped Cream and Other Delights'

Number 43 is a parody of the Beatles "Hard Day's Night"

I don't know if I can live with the shame of remembering the originals! :(
