The 10 worst album covers of all times

In the 70s you could get a free concert along with your daily newspaper.

The Best of The Singing Postman


What an inspiring title!

Freddie Gage - All My Friends are dead


Dancing was a lot more fun back in the 50s.

Paul Pincus and his Orchestra - Music for Happy Occasions


These pigs certainly don't need more food.

The Handsome Beasts - Bestiality


A country barn is the perfect place for a photo session.

Ken - By Request Only


He has the cape! He makes the whoosh-noises! He's superman!

Alla Pugatjova - Superman


Another fine Spanish "macho". The album title translates as "for the first time" which makes it even more funny.

Tino - Por Primera Vez


This is probably the most sexy gay album cover ever.

The Ministry Quartet - Let Me Touch Him


Back in the 60s even rednecks could record an album

Country Church


Using the powers given to me by God himself, I command you to buy this album!

Pachacamac

Tino is not a brazilian "macho". He's a Spanish "macho" born in Barcelona at march 25 of 1967.

Tino is a component of a group called "Parchis"

Good thing someone else tried to blog about this after 10 people already did it. It was funny the first time, but that was all.

Anyone notice the "Let Me Touch Him" album is by the Ministers Quartet?!
The Catholic church isn't even trying anymore.

The Let Me Touch Him alubum is not from the Catholic church you bum! Lots of religions have ministers.

levinius said...

Alla Pugacheva on the "superman" poster is a famour Russian pop-singer. This is hilarious though

Olga said...

Yeah, Alla Pugacheva (the woman on the superman album) was THE Diva in Soviet Union and remains THE Diva in Russia. Never seen this album cover though. Funny s**t

The dude on the superman album looks like Milton from Office Space. Oh man.

I'd think that the "Let Me Touch Him" album is from a christian religion--it's a common theme in worship songs.

They're referring to Jesus--"I want to know you/I want to hear your voice/I want to know you more/I want to touch you/I want to see your face/I want to know you more".

Probably OK to release an album like that back then, but now it's just got too many connotations attached.

TINO WAS A SPANISH SINGER, NOT FROM BRAZIL...SPAIN, AND YES IT'S VERY FUNNY JAJAJA

Mo said...

Rednecks continue to put out albums. There's the country and christian rock genres... Then most famously -- Britney Spears.

The album by Tino, "Por Primera Vez", means "for the first time" in Spanish. That combined with the young man's suggestive pose make it the best one on the list, tied with "All my friends are dead".

Thanks anonymous! I've edited the post.

Wow this is funny

Jay V. said...

Where's "Joyce"? I think you had her up on this list. Bring back "Joyce"!

Will said...

These are great they have such an obvious cheese appeal. I bet in 20 years we will be looking at those gangster rap album covers the same way. Thanks for the post!

trent said...

if this were a list of most awesome-est album covers ever then it is missing a vital piece: cameo's "machismo"

The Singing Postman was a niche folksinger in the UK in the early sixties. He wasn't bad, just ugly.
