[Hot Ptah]

There are some album covers so unusual that they do not fit into any easily described category. Here is one:

Gents, if you find this cover strange or unclassifiable you ain't seen many 50s/60s COUNTRY album covers. Covers portraying country-styled singers in the (perceived/imaginary) setting of the topics of their songs were a dime a dozen for some time back then.

And this one below ain't that strange either. It DOES relate directly to the music contained in the grooves, after all.

What I do find strange are those Music for Dreaming and Music for Gracouos Living covers above.

That entire fad of those "Music to .... by" of the 50s would warrant a thread of its own. Wonder what a MUSIC TO LISTEN TO MUSIC BY cover would have looked like?

Or how about "Music to mow your lawn by"??
