The Today Show did a little piece about the worst album covers ever this morning. So I Googled it to see if there's agreement on the subject. Go take a look yourself.
The answer is that...yes, there's much agreement. The front runners seem to be religious albums from the 70's and disco albums with gay single entendres. There's also a bunch of them that are just plain weird.
Which are your favorites? I'm particularly fond of Joyce, Let me touch him, and The Handless Organist.
BTW, I want to take this opportunity to apologize for yesterday's Non-Thought-Provoking Entry. It was the best I had. As an unrepentant comment whore, I clearly didn't live up to your standards or mine. I hereby vow not to mention Jersey Joe again until he does something unimaginably stupid. Actually, I've got faith in him.

Actually, you should apologize for making me look at those.
My Retinas!
HA! I love the Orleans cover. Doesn't get much gayer than that! And what is Julie doing with that old guy at a bar on her sixteenth birthday?
Personally, I vote for...
'Devastating Dave'
for both gayest (while thinking that he's not)...
...and worst outfit.
This is a common Stumble hit,
and I always find it pretty dammed funny...
- in a stomach churning sort of way.
Note: I spread this comment out in order to satisfy your 'Comment Whore' needs.
You're welcome
Some of those covers were jut scary! I'd forgotten how bad some of the Scopions album covers were. And some of the people on the covers - erp, gag...
Jim,
It's totally not fair of you to make it embarrassing to check my own blog in public.
Everyone's looking at the guy in the corner booth laughing out loud by himself.
Nathan,
People *always* look at me funny for laughing in public.
Just enjoy the fact that you're amused and they're not.
Gloat, even.
And it could be worse. He could have taken over your site and posted some of those covers on your front page.
Now THAT would be embarrassing to check in public.
Nathan,
People in the movie industry are known
for acting strangely in public
I'm just helping to add to your persona.
Try not to jump up and down on any couches and you'll be ok.
:)
If he jumps up and down on any couches, we need to hold an intervention.
I don't care how goofy he acts in public, it's the jumping on the couch that bothers me. I hope he at least take his shoes off first - I've seen NY streets, I don't want to sit in that crap, I've got my good work pants on.
Not having ever been to New York...isn't it common knowledge that they mostly ALL behave strangely?
Not saying that YOU are strange Nathan (just wanted that to be understood)
Just saying that if you happen to behave strangely, that no one would really notice.
I have fulfilled my comment obligation for this post...(thanks Jim for setting a fine example)
I just want to keep Nathan happy.
How's the kitties?
Actually, Kimby, the proper way to ask that question would be:
How's the kitten, and
the other kitten?
You know, for maximum comment whore effect.
Just sayin'
I
bow to
the Master!

Jim,
Don't you have some wood
to turn
or snow
to shovel?
Although I must admit
this is rather addictive
kinda like a nonsensical poem.
It's
the
wood
thing,
no snow
here. Just
cut a burl
and mounted it on the lathe
got a cup of
coffee
and now I'm off to make
wood chips

Oh, and the kittens are going batshit right now and I think Widget may finally move around enough to lose some weight.
She still isn't technically playing with them, but they are chasing each other around.
aim

please!
Nathan, today in honour of your new kitties, I posted an intro to my own Lord Kitty..
I do believe it is Michelle's turn to post her kitties too!
If you scroll real fast through the middle there, you get the illusion of a really boring animation of the Future Ultimate Emperor of the Universe (tm) morphing into a shark. Pretty cool.
Friday Cat Blogging on my site is now posted.
Jeff,
It's not a shark. Can you say TurDuckEn?
It is TOO a shark!
We took that picture a the Newport Aquarium in Newport KY.
