Great albums with awful covers

[crispyduck]

Great albums with crap covers? I think this fits the bill nicely

[winkyincanada]

That’s a great cover!

[bhoyo]

I cringe every time I see it.

[Pete_the_painter]

Agreed a great album but mine has a different (but not much better) cover.

[bhoyo]

I like early Steve Miller, and even saw him at the old Rainbow in (I think) 1972. But everything about this, especially its pointless, silly pun, is irritating.

Even if you came up with this cover after a heavy night at the bar, surely you would realise next morning it wasn’t funny after all

[TheKevster]

Johnny Otis, he’s good. The cover, not so good:

[TheKevster]

This is a splendid 1970s disco-electronica album. Cover’s a bit weird though:

[bhoyo]

Yikes!

[igahman]

What bhoyo said. Yikes.

[crispyduck]

Isn’t he the Supernature chap who has inspired Ms Goldfrapp?

[billywindsock]

Great music, poor cover. daisies of the galaxy is great.

[igahman]

Funny but I like the cover. Brilliant album though but.

[TheKevster]

Indeed he is…

Love the album, it’s an ambient classic, but what’s up with this cover yo?

[steviebee]

Looks like it’s a nice picture disc…

I love how this thread almost immediately became “Terrible Albums and their Terrible Covers”

I stumbled upon both of these in my mother’s record collection.

and

I remember feeling deep shame at finding these as a kid. And as time went on and I got older I started thinking they were cool and have actually been unsuccessful in my attempt to get her to give them to me.

I’ll buy a turntable the day I finally get these and her original first pressings of Johnny Cash.

Your mothers collection right !!!
