GA Russell Posted December 22, 2007 Report Posted December 22, 2007 This is a topic we've discussed before somewhere. I found this list today at Digg. Enjoy! http://www.wallstreetfighter.com/2007/01/2...f-all-time.html Quote

BERIGAN Posted December 22, 2007 Report Posted December 22, 2007 Never understood why Millie Jackson is holding one shoe in her hand. Bertrand. Cuz she has already thrown the first one at the guy who thought this would be a good idea. Quote

JSngry Posted December 22, 2007 Report Posted December 22, 2007 If you've ever stepped into a privy and found a mouse, you'll know how wild with fear a little mouse can become. With no exit but the hole in the seat, it's a dilemma no one, not even a mouse, should be faced with. http://williamgibsonboard.com/eve/forums/a...71/m/8306011902 Quote
GregK Posted December 22, 2007 Report Posted December 22, 2007 I always thought Born in the USA by Springsteen was one of the worst album covers that I've ever seen. Who thought that was a good idea?? Quote
Alexander Posted December 22, 2007 Report Posted December 22, 2007 My top three bad album covers (cited elsewhere, but I love showing them off) are as follows: Oooohhh yeah! J.T. the badass! Fire and rain, baby! What in the world is Neil doing with his hands here? He looks like he's channelling Jim Morrison... This one takes the prize as one of the worst album covers of all time. Who thought this was a good idea? Did someone really believe that making Kenny look like the King of the Fruitcakes was going to move records? All of this just goes to show: Wussy rock stars and live album covers DO NOT MIX! Quote

Oh, I don't know... they look like what they are, don't they? MG Quote
Quincy Posted December 22, 2007 Report Posted December 22, 2007 My top three bad album covers (cited elsewhere, but I love showing them off) are as follows: Oooohhh yeah! J.T. the badass! Fire and rain, baby! Bwahahaha! Did not know about that one. And um, great title there too James. This one takes the prize as one of the worst album covers of all time. Who thought this was a good idea? Did someone really believe that making Kenny look like the King of the Fruitcakes was going to move records? But if it helped make Yacht Rock possible, it was worth it. Episode 2 features Loggins. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted December 22, 2007 Report Posted December 22, 2007 There are good album covers and then there are the rest. It's not going to keep me from buying something if it looks dumb, as long as the music is interesting. FWIW: I'm surprised some of those cheapo America jackets aren't somehow making their way in here... and despite Carol Goss's video synthesizing street-cred, most IAI releases' artwork bug the shit out of me.

Big Al Posted December 22, 2007 Report Posted December 22, 2007 What in the world is Neil doing with his hands here? He looks like he's channelling Jim Morrison... ...or Gene Simmons. When I first saw the album, I thought Gene had taken the makeup off. Y'ever notice you never see Neil Diamond and Gene Simmons in the same place? Sorta like how you never see Paul Stanley and Cher in the same place? Quote
rockefeller center Posted December 23, 2007 Report Posted December 23, 2007 Revvin' up your engine Listen to her howlin' roar Metal under tension Beggin' you to touch and go Highway to the Danger Zone Ride into the Danger Zone Headin' into twilight Spreadin' out her wings tonight She got you jumpin' off the track And shovin' into overdrive Highway to the Danger Zone I'll take you Right into the Danger Zone You'll never say hello to you Until you get it on the red line overload You'll never know what you can do Until you get it up as high as you can go Out along the edges Always where I burn to be The further on the edge The hotter the intensity Highway to the Danger Zone Gonna take you Right into the Danger Zone Highway to the Danger Zone Quote
AndrewHill Posted December 23, 2007 Report Posted December 23, 2007 (edited) Speaking of jazz covers the the Watts sleeves never did it for me either. Edited December 23, 2007 by Holy Ghost Quote
Hardbopjazz Posted December 26, 2007 Report Posted December 26, 2007 Does anyne recall the reissue cover of Grant Green's "Goin' West" album from the late 70's ealy 8o's? Now that was one of the worst covers I've seen. It is a photo of an accustic guitar leaning up against a tree. I've never been able to locate a image of this. Quote
