[HEyHEY]

1. How does this make the worst??

That's fucking rad!

[liberalmuse]

6. Um, the Batman sound effects...

that appear to be coming from his crotch?

[anti_shrub]

2. Too funny

Shame the rest of that site is full of wingnuttery....

[FlashHarry]

3. Black Sabbath and Badfinger

Black Sabbath: Paranoid

Badfinger: Straight Up

Both great records, by the way...

[liberalmuse]

4. LMAO!!!

OMG, that was funny! Some of those covers gave me the creeps--eeeew. Thanks, I really enjoyed the laugh.

[ProudGerman]

5. Can we get this as an avatar?

[legin]

7. Easy one

the CD cover for the Mott the Hoople album Mott.

The original vinyl album had one of THE classic album covers.

The present CD cover looks like something from Spinal Tap.

[FlashHarry]

8. This?

What are you talking about? It's awesome!

I like this one, too:

10. the top is the one I was refering too

compared to the original vinyl version sorry I am not keen. ;-)

The original vinyl version also had a D.H. Lawarence poem too which was good.

14. Well the poem was good 20 years ago

when I was in my teens anyway:

A Sane Revolution
If you make a revolution, make it for fun,
don't make it in ghastly seriousness,
don't do it in deadly earnest,
do it for fun.

Don't do it because you hate people,
do it just to spit in their eye.

Don't do it for the money,
do it and be damned to the money.

Don't do it for equality,
do it because we've got too much equality
and it would be fun to upset the apple-cart
and see which way the apples would go a-rolling.

Don't do it for the working classes.
Do it so that we can all of us be little aristocracies on our own
and kick our heels like jolly escaped asses.

Don't do it, anyhow, for international Labour.
Labour is the one thing a man has had too much of.
Let's abolish labour, let's have done with labouring!
Work can be fun, and men can enjoy it; then it's not labour.
Let's have it so! Let's make a revolution for fun!

9. i've come across a few of them

at flea markets, salvation army stores, and goodwills while pursuing my quest to have the ultimate vinyl collection

[dolo amber]

12. I'm not at ALL sure

I wanna know what this one is about...





:wtf:


The rest made me laugh so hard I nearly shat myself. Is it just me or does "Joyce" look a bit like "Tootsie"? :D

[LynneSin]

19. At least she's legal in some states - THIS ONE BOTHERS ME!!!

Seriously - hid your children from these guys (if they're still alive).

13. most came from this website:

http://www.showandtellmusic.com/

As a fanatic for outsider and bizarre recordings, it's one of my favorite sites on the net.

[OneBlueSky]

15. much as I hate to admit it . . .

I once owned this album . . .

[regnaD kciN]

16. They missed a couple of classics...

Sorry that the only cover photos I could find were so small.



and, for the Christian Music set,



(And, yes, the second one, Lamb Favorites, really is a drawing of a religiously-ecstatic sheep dancing about a middle-American living room while listening to Lamb LPs over headphones. The picture posted here doesn't do it justice -- the original LP cover was enough to send people into fits of spontaneous laughter.)

[Screaming Lord Byron]

17. Nick Drake - Pink Moon

Hands down the worst faux-Dali ever.

[Screaming Lord Byron]

18. Ooh! I forgot. Satan Is Real by The Louvin Bros.

Giant cardboard devil and burning tires.

[MiddleRiverRefugee]

21. You mean this one?

[Screaming Lord Byron]

22. Yes. Oh dear sweet Jesus, yes. Clearly our winner, eh?

[LynneSin]

20. I can't believe no one has photo-oped these covers yet

I see a few M.A.T.C.O.M. potentials in this batch.
