More Nuges on the back cover and gatefold.

No thanks, any number of Nugents is too many.

If there were a way to get negative Nugents I would probably want that option

I think those are just the "clones" (actual/human "artist" not depicted)!

Cliff Richard, "Every Face Tells a Story" (a perfect 70s album title cover)

It was a sad day for both music and human genetic engineering in 1974 when a displeased Andy Williams beat his clone to death with a 3-iron for being 15% smaller than desired. pic.twitter.com/Vo7vShmQ4z

Kevin Cummings, the photographer who took the shot this is based on is on the latest Oh! Brother taking about Mark E Smith snipping the image of himself out of a photo he got from said photographer without sorting out rights. That among other stuff about the Manchester scene etc, good episode

this explains his unusual long life, this whole time they've been breeding an army of Ringos in the axlotl tanks of Bene Tleilax

Ringo feels like an excellent candidate for the thread of artists whose visage appears on all/most of their album covers.

Karabalik Beatz, General Kara

Senegalese producer par excellence helms his own project

One of the alt covers for the new Ariana Grande album:

just pricing this today. what's weird is that the back cover is a continuation of the front cover (his hair wraps around the cover) with another picture of richie all wet.

wow, I'm not sure whether I should praise this motherfucker for mastering this trope or scold him for demystifying it

magnifiCathy: the many voices of Cathy Berberian

The Many Voices of Miriam Makeba

(yo dawg, we heard you like dancing, so we're gonna make your body dance for them while we make your body dance for them while we make your body dance for them)

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

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.
