Thursday Thirteen - Album Covers

Posted on April 23, 2008 by Thea @ Im A Drama Mama

In keeping with my retro theme (have you seen my tribute to the 80s parts 1, 2, and 3), my brother sent me a website of the worst album covers ever. Here are my favorites (courtesy of Steve Carter)…

    Damn those were awful! I literally had to find a photo of the “Sgt. Pepper” cover just to get them out of my mind. Is it just me, or does the mother in the Cooper family look like Dustin Hoffman as Tootsie?

    I agree, those are probably some of the worst I have ever seen! Orleans about made me lose my dinner, yuck!

    Those revoltingly smug looking Christians make me want to go grab a flame thrower! And why is The Man From Glad singing sentimental songs in German? The woman in front of the MkKeithen’s (their redundant apostrophe, not mine!) looks like a transvestite in a very bad wig. Believe it or not, Wally Whyton had something of a reputation as a folk singer in Britain many years ago. Looking at his list of titles I’m rather curious about “Don’t send my mother to prison”!

    Wow! just Wow. That’s educational isn’t it! I… wow.

    Yikes! Those are some crazy photos. I love the huge beehive hair thing!

    The’re some serious Aqua Net use going on there! Especially No. 12. So many sexy men caught in the wrong decade, the wrong band, the wrong boots…..

    LMAO…OMG, are those real?? That is too funny. Happy TT.

    How scary. I got that Orleans album by mistake from the music club. VERY scary for a pre-teen. I’ve still got scars from it.

    Happy TT!

    As I type, I am still laughing. Thank you so much…I had a bad day and this really helped. My nomination is Stevie Wonder’s album “Hotter than July”….hideous! How could they do that to a blind man?

    Okay that’s the funniest thing I’ve seen in a LONG time–that hair was as big as a Volkswagen!

    Were they trying to be gay or was it just me?

    These puppies are so hideous they rock — and I totally intended that pun. Thanks for the laugh.

    Wow. Oh my eyes. Was the music any better than the album covers? Happy TT.

  14. SJ Reidhead, on April 23rd, 2008 at 11:37 pm Said:

    Okay, I’m out of date - and so are these covers! I don’t think I’ve heard of any of them.

    Dang those are terrible! Some of those people look like serial killers. “She was so quiet! He never caused a bit of trouble…until they found the heads in his freezer!”

    Happy TT!

    Does the big guy from the Christian Crusaders have his eyes closed? Couldn’t they take one more shot? That’s bad………….

  17. Toni, on April 24th, 2008 at 9:26 am Said:

    That is one of the funniest things I have seen!!!!

    Great post!!!!

    Yeah definitely do not revisit that era of style.
    Great choices in there.
    Happy TT, mine is up.

    Oh my. And they really used those? Wow. No wonder I’ve never heard of any of them, LOL :)

  20. Christine, on April 24th, 2008 at 1:31 pm Said:

    Wow, there’s one really nasty comment about Christians up there. Ouch! As for the covers, they’re either naked or Brady Bunch-ish. Lovely…
