The Ohio Players had a run of strange covers.

The “Fire” cover had a woman wearing nothing but a fire hose, the “Honey” album had a ... well, you get the idea.

IIRC, there was an article about bad album covers and a chick sitting on a toilet with her undies at her ankle was among those listed.

Millie Jackson was the name of the artist.

Funny stuff, though Dusty over at Salami Tsunami (formerly Pork Tornado) still has my favorite collection of bad album covers:

Rolling Stones album with functional fly zipper.

[GSWarrior]

Is that Joyce Meyer, the televangelist?

[Third Person]

[Boogieman]

Hey, they got you to check out the album, didn’t they?

[cripplecreek]

Megadeth and the appropriate hanging of children out to dry.



And who among us wouldn't want to see this happen to the UN?

I remember that Orleans album cover from when I was in high school. I always thought it was a weird photo.

[DemforBush]

I have no idea. I’ve honestly never heard of any of the acts on that list except for Orleans. :-)

[EEGator]

I like those, especially the baby one. I dig the Eddie in Iron Maiden album covers too.(some a little too dark for here)

[cripplecreek]

Yet the lead singers of both Megadeth and Iron Maiden are solid conservatives. (Mustaine even endorsed Rick Santorum in this campaign)

[Oshkalaboomboom]

bfl

[DemforBush]

Um...no.

[cripplecreek]

I like this one.

[EEGator]

That one is sweet.

[SengirV]

I LOVE that album and cover.
