WTF Album Covers

(un)Inspired by utterly dreadful 'Top Of The Pops' album covers of the 1970s, it struck me that there must be hundreds, if not thousands of weird album covers out there... I don't mean strange esoteric covers with abstract art, but I mean outrageously provocative (for the time), batshit odd, or creepy as heck covers...

My brother had this one. Jimi Hendrix - Electric Ladyland, Not that bad really. I suppose it was shocking back then or maybe not.

My dad used black tape to fix everything, including album covers.

The first one posted is also known as ''They Will Never Find Your Body''.

Aged about 5 I came across this in my dad's record collection. It still makes me feel ill.

IhatetheArchers · 17/08/2018 20:38

The notorious Blind Faith cover featuring a naked pubescent girl holding a model aeroplane.

I have a collection of dodgy album covers, including some fine examples of the Black and White Minstrels.

I can’t join in, only ever had ‘singles’. My first buy was ‘everybody was Kung fu fighting’ I doubt they were!

What has Ken done to his head?

elephantoverthehill · 17/08/2018 22:19

Well here's my next contribution. It is not weird, it is a stealth boast. The logo was done by my Db aged about 6, his twin sister's writing was too neat to be considered.

Why the white, white socks do you think??

elephantoverthehill · 17/08/2018 22:33

The white socks are to pacify his Dm. He promised he would wear clean underwear.
