I had to look up that JoJO Gunne album and uh
The band's third album Jumpin' the Gunne failed to rise any higher than #169 on the Billboard Top 200 Chart. This was partially attributed to a controversial cover of an overweight naked woman jumping over the band who were in a bed as she attempted to reach a baby pig. The gatefold jacket had the same woman with the album credits written on her in black marker as she cavorts with a piglet.

It's an old joke about a guy who ends up in hell. He is submerged in shit up to his neck, after a while he starts thinking it's not so bad, then he hears a voice saying "breaks over" and he's suddenly standing on his head. Think there is a similar Bradbury story where it alternates between unbearably hot & cold?

― u2 removal machine (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Thursday, 23 October 2014 13:41 (nine years ago) link
every time this thread is bumped I think 'that must be all of them', but there seems to be an infinite number of these records
― soref, Thursday, 23 October 2014 13:44 (nine years ago) link
Jojo Gunne made a career of these: two of their other titles were Bite Down Hard and So...Where's The Show?.

But i will pretty much listen to any album released in the 1970s
This is basically one of these, right?

though really "Instant Karma" and "Mother" there kinda beg to be album covers on their own. "Cold Turkey" a sad missed opportunity.

Some 70s guys just didn't hit their stride until the 80s:

Gotta say these dudes seem spectacularly lucky to have scored a latter-day hit with "You Can Do Magic" - until I remembered that I was kind of baffled to imagine that someone actually greenlit four albums of America as a duo post-1980.

seems like we've moved on to "head-shakingly literal record cover depictions of the title"...which is I guess a big part of the records on this thread so far.
