Perhaps a slightly different vibe on this one than most of these--actually an incredible new record I wish ILMers were hearing. But beautiful execution of the artwork, too:

Johnny Guitar Watson's funk record album covers are a genre of their own. They are all weird and amazing.

I imagine this is one of the nameless broken links from up there, but it deserves a place here: Country and Western Meets Rhythm and Blues by Ray Charles:

I thought the same about the Dolly Parton album but there are a lot of broken links up there.

Hah, that is what i tried to post and failed

that's why i posted it

it was known as the mirror with all the little kissy marks on it

Karl Malone, Sunday, 30 May 2021 15:36 (five years ago)

I'm not 100% up on the plotline of the Janelle Monae Metropolis universe, but is that the first cover in this thread that actually literally features the artist hanging out with her clones? (OK, fellow identical androids I think, but the closest we've come?)

Given that this album has a song called "Never Let Me Go", I'd venture to guess these are meant to be clones.

enochroot, Monday, 7 June 2021 17:23 (five years ago)

off topic, but is it more difficult to find good quality album cover art online than it was in the past? GIS doesn't seem to be coming through like it used to.

Mr. Cacciatore (Moodles), Monday, 7 June 2021 17:34 (five years ago)

GIS just broadly getting worse for anything I think

Lavator Shemmelpennick, Monday, 7 June 2021 17:40 (five years ago)

so to clarify for future oral histories of this thread, monae first one posted but she just opened the floodgates

Lavator Shemmelpennick, Monday, 7 June 2021 17:53 (five years ago)

I think Clones of Dr. Funkenstein may have been posted before, but the link broke

Image search is too bound up with shopping to be of much use these days. Like if there were a way to search for an informative image without triggering the shopping algorithms that would be nice
