It's The Farm surely?

Flowered Up it is. Barry Mooncult is the one not playing along, but perhaps living up to his name

In that Limp Bizkit one, I think Les is the only one who is playing along.

JRN's photo was already top notch before I knew that it was Limp Bizkit, now that I know, well.

always felt this about roxy's first bass player on the inner sleeve of their debut:

You might even be able to make an argument for Eno on the next gatefold:

I wish roxy actually looked like that. three lefties!

brilliant.
i love this thread ...

mark e, Monday, 25 March 2013 21:33 (eleven years ago) link

also, that roxy gatefold is really a photo of four members refusing to play along.

fact checking cuz, Monday, 25 March 2013 21:37 (eleven years ago) link

Honestly some of these I'm not positive which one is meant to be the odd one out... I'm kind of dull.

Evan, Monday, 25 March 2013 21:40 (eleven years ago) link

Only a few, though.

tbh it seems like everyone is refusing to play along with everyone there.

OTM

pplains, Tuesday, 26 March 2013 00:33 (eleven years ago) link

any stage photo of Flowered Up would presumably find Barry Mooncult refuing to play along

was laughing just weeks ago at some arista records-type funk band that would fit in thread, but can't for the life of me remember which one. gotta find it.

Cobra Kai wasn't a musician.

pplains, Friday, 12 August 2022 15:17 (one year ago) link

And Sgt. Pepper isn't 80s.

A glance at their website also seems to suggest that the Sgt. Pepper guy usually dresses up as Pee-Wee Herman (also not best-known as a musician).

lol, he does look a little like John Lennon with the yellow jacket and the moustache.

peace, man, Friday, 19 August 2022 11:42 (one year ago) link

Could this be an indicator of the difference in the relative standing of the Queen and the Beatles between the UK and North America? I confess to having absolutely no idea what colour John Lennon's jacket was on the cover of Sgt Pepper.

Buckfast At Tiffany's (Tom D.), Friday, 19 August 2022 12:06 (one year ago) link

It's actually green, but appears yellowish on the front cover. In the gatefold, the background is yellow and his jacket definitely appears green.

peace, man, Friday, 19 August 2022 12:35 (one year ago) link

fwiw, I recognized that as a Freddie costume and I'm an American lifelong Beatles fan with only a passing familiarity with Queen.

I mean, Adam Ant had that stripe across his face but he never dressed like that.
