LP Cover Lovers

I recently saw Boing Boing's blog posing about The Faithtones Jesus Use Me LP...



(note: the Faithtones' followup LP Jesus Take Me Home and Make Me Like It remains unreleased)

...and it inspired me to search the Internet for more crazy album cover art. I came across a wonderful site called "LP Cover Lover: The World's Greatest LP Albums Covers, 45s Too" which takes "the weird and wonderful world of record covers from the golden age of LPs" and classifies them into easily searchable categories like "Preachin,'" "Chicks with Guitars," "Latin Loco," "Happy Hour," "Super Stereo" (celebrating the long-lost Stereo Demonstration LP genre) and the creme de la creme "Hall of Fame"-ers.

Some of my favorites follow...


Mandingo poses for Kool & The Gang's debut


Good, good, good...good vibrations!


The coordinated choreography of the Clodettes


The Bathrooms are coming (to Flushing, NY?)


Ultraman - always photogenic!


Domestic violence in the dojo


The Breakfast at Tiffany's look comes to Singapore


Shake your ash hon, 'cuz I think there's fire in the hole!



Must sexual harmony involve breeding rugrats?


Frauleins love jerkin' the gherkin


How do you top that bill?


Say your prayers - for world piece


Chappie scores a hole in one


It's a gas-gas-gas

Hard to pick a favorite when they are all such winners. Though I am especially drawn to the "War Between the Fats and Thins". I'd give anything to see the track listings on that little treasure.

In addition, the gorgeous wedding tail bandage-type entanglement, but also pure white wedding dress and fashion stripes cross muddy mapping.
