I think they had plans at the time to bring Iggy Pop or Jess Rosen in to replace Jim Morrison.
Yes, Jess was a candidate…not sure about Iggy tho.
Iggy did get Jim’s leathers tho, iirc.
And then of course, there was Doors 21C, Astbury and Roden I think…but no John. Not Ray and Robbie’s finest hour imho…

A twofer from Millie Jackson: Extra Sexual Persuasion & Back To The Sh*t (possibly the most ill-advised of any on this thread so far).

Sia’s Christmas album I think. No idea if it’s any good the cover put me right off.

Did she appear on Star Trek? If not she certainly could have.

Nooo… I’ve always loved the full gatefold sleeve of Ram. And it’s a wonderful album too, my favourite of his post-Beatles.

Agreed!
Millie Jackson. Was there nobody brave enough to say “Millie that cover is not a good idea “

Surely she could figure that out herself…

Not sure if that was a response to the Goldfrapp Black Cherry cover?
If the covers have put you off the music I’d certainly suggest trying a few of their albums, my three favourites (of mostly different styles) are:
- Felt Mountain
- Supernature
- Seventh Tree

Sadly no
At least Millie had clean knickers.

The same thought occurred to me! Of course, he should be wearing wellies. 
And yet it’s still the Dylan album I play the most. It’s a shame about the front cover because when it’s opened up it reveals some great photos

I’ve read a thread somewhere that suggests that it is all Lou Reed and counter argument about Cale but this album would certainly not be as iconic without Nico
Bring it on - I’m up for a fight!
Having said this, I’ve just been having a listen (courtesy of Roon and Tidal) to some early John Cale albums and to my slight surprise really enjoying them.
