Don't know how noteworthy this one is, but it's kind of intriguing and made me want to hear the album:

OK so possibly the most !! thing about this is that the record inside this sleeve exists, however I am digging the 70s budget album vibe of the cover.

By contrast, this one just screams "I licensed my back catalogue to a budget label that sells its wares only in motorway service stations". Poor show, Kylie.

Cover connections: feels like the dude that did that ADT album has been gifted some Michael DeForge back issues since he last updated his own website

holy shit! i didn't realize stimulator jones actually took off. i heard he was talking to stones throw awhile back but could never confirm. that album cover looks like it was done by daniel cundiff who does the eternal summers and young sinclairs album art

The Amerie covers? They’re credited to “Mr Nicholson/Feenix Rising Ent.” (here’s another from the same session: https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/hip-hop/8480485/amerie-surprise-double-album-exclusive-interview). That’s the name of her label/management (her husband is Lenny Nicholson, a former record exec)... so, in short, no info on the actual photographer.
