In other words, use the "view source" function because I'm too lucid to figure out anything tonight.

And there's the other picture where they're making a moving picture about these people moving pictures. It's so...meta.

I just realized what building that cover was shot in front of in Toronto.

Quibble with the Frampton. The yawnsomely literal title for this picture would be something like "Frampton Stares" or "Mouth Agape, With Guitar." It doesn't show him "coming alive," not literally.

Well, maybe if the album was called Crouching manfully next to a Panther maybe.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Sunday, 1 February 2004 13:45 (twenty years ago) link

There's probably 100 better examples of this one, but this was all I could find

yeah, on same theme I picked up a second hand copy of Big Jim Sullivan's LP "Big Jim's Back" yesterday. Guess what the cover pic is of?

Props to these guys for pulling this off on a self-titled album!

Frampton looks like he's cumming to me!

not that I don't love this album, though it would have been more apropos (and more hilarious!) if it had been named Super Gaye.

Quibble with Billy Joel's "Glass Houses" - he is patently OUTSIDE the house. Has there ever been a proverbial - as opposed to legal - prohibition specifying that "people shouldn't throw stones AT glass houses"? I think not.

You can be sure this isn't a photo of the first time Coltrane was going to play live at the village vanguard. Alice and Rashied look like some tourist couple who've stumbled into some sidewalk wax museum.

― Dr. Annabel Lies (Michael Kelly), Sunday, 1 February 2004 19:56 (twenty years ago) link

(in case you can't read it, the album is named She's Strange)

Hmmmm....the only thing left about the Village Vanguard is that sign. Otherwise, it's a Duane Reade drug store today.

I was gonna ask whether it finally closed down.

thanks to Dr Annabel for finally getting that Thomas Leer and Robert Rental LP cover onto an ILM album covers thread, which i'd been trying to do for ages ;)
