I have no interest in the man's music. The Andrew WK of white-boy soul (without any of Andrew WK's redeeming qualities, like the music actually being fun, but I digress).

But those CD covers! So classic, so Brueghel-esque almost! If only the music were as great!!

...and the gatefold version would have been even better, or worse, depending on if you can handle six of him.

There could be misconstrued for promo stills for a slasher flick.

Yeah, it looks less like Something To Say and more like Something Murderous To Throw At Someone.

I like Joe Cocker and his early album covers. I can even claim to have had fun while listening to him, which is more than I can say for my experiences with fellow bad-looker Andrew WK

The last one reminds me of my dad.

six years pass...

I always thought I hated his music but 'The Letter' from the 'Mad Dogs and English Men' tour is pretty good, though probably because of the fuller band sound. I like Leon Russell's indifferent cool attitude as well.

five months pass...

i still think that Cocker looks really Manson-esque on so many of his album covers. "those Manson lamps," as Tony Soprano would say.
