All of these Elvis homages are so appealing. I will listen to that Rod record tomorrow - Baby Jane is brilliant at least! Mark E looks so beautiful there. I don't know what Blumfeld is, but maybe that's worth a go too.

That Rod Stewart cover looks like a bunch of aids ribbons with Rod Stewart’s head photoshopped onto them

Rod Stewart red leather suit and the title 'Body Wishes' is not exactly subtle.

That album is genuinely worth checking out!

The US set of clones being slightly different from the UK cloneset.

unconfirmed, but john fogerty plays all the instruments on this album, and he's the band's only member, and all of these silhouettes look like him

the only question is, did he also set the timer on the camera and then run up on the hill, and then edit the image later

and if he didn't, then laaaame. come on fogerty, you gotta commit to the project

Gee, that Blood, Sweat and Tears cover is particularly impressive(ly creepy)

Perhaps a slightly different vibe on this one than most of these--actually an incredible new record I wish ILMers were hearing. But beautiful execution of the artwork, too:

Johnny Guitar Watson's funk record album covers are a genre of their own. They are all weird and amazing.

I imagine this is one of the nameless broken links from up there, but it deserves a place here: Country and Western Meets Rhythm and Blues by Ray Charles:

I can't believe I'm the first person to post this, and I don't even like Lou Reed.

I thought the same about the Dolly Parton album but there are a lot of broken links up there.

At least that one could truly be said to depict different “voices,” whereas the Cathy version features creepy carbon copies of the same “voice”

cellaring potential (morrisp), Sunday, 28 January 2024 00:53 (two months ago) link

and ofc the cover artist couldn't be more wrong if they were implying that Cathy had limited range

Not an album cover, not clones. But... they really do look like clones.
