the "full circle" album covers are killing it upthread

ahaha i had forgotten those... I was all ready to type "Rupert Holmes ftw" but discovered I already had, yikes. staggerlee's "reflections" series is also wonderful.

note to self: do not title an album, should i ever make one, "full circle"

That'd be funnier if it was an album called "John Lee Hooker" by a band called The Cream.

I feel like the cover of Udo Lindenberg's 1971 album "Lindenberg" qualifies here, at least to German speakers.

alternate cover art: an elderly Brian Wilson is sitting on the beach with a margarita in hand, being fanned by two beautiful beach babes. nearby, five young men in green-and-white striped swim trunks are running down the pier, just about to jump in the water. the chubby one (representing a young Brian Wilson) is waving at the older Brian to join them, but the older Brian dismisses him with a smug grin and a flick of the wrist. No Pier Pressure.

I'm glad they put the "POISON - BE CAREFUL" label there, otherwise you might think Thomas is merely showing his women in bottles collection to you.

Tuomas, Friday, 28 August 2015 10:54 (eight years ago) link

I imagine you could pretty seamlessly merge this thread and the terrible 70s album names one.

this just came up on forgotify, though I guess the addition of the monkey keeps it from being altogether Yawnsomely Literal

the cover kind of makes it look like Ed is the monkey and that the album is a collaboration between him and a real white guy with a guitar

better not to put spaghetti on your cover and be thought yawnsomely literal, than to put spaghetti on your cover and remove all doubt.

wizzz! (amateurist), Wednesday, 16 September 2015 22:17 (eight years ago) link

I see spaghetti, but where's the incident?

EDB, Thursday, 17 September 2015 01:51 (eight years ago) link

it involves the really shitty off-brand sauce used to coat the pasta
