The 25 worst album covers of all time

May. 11th, 2012 at 6:25 AM

On Leno last evening, Jay did a bit where people sent in pix that looked like him. In #15 below, the weirdly coiffed, babe wearing horn-rimmed glasses on the right does bare a resemblance to Leno.

Anyway, I was inspired to Google this "inspirational" group and see what I could find. For The Faith Tones I found this comment: "The higher the hair, the closer to JAY-sus!"

Which led me eventually to "The 25 worst album covers of all time."

I find the comments below the album equally funny. Tastes vary, of course. What's your favorite?

I would say that #25, Senior Coconut, is the most painful. Really, *what* where they thinking?

Indeed! Though you shouldn't judge a band by their cover. Perhaps with all those percussion instruments they have a "good beat and you can dance to it."

I can't look at that first one without snickering...and then laughing.

Jesus Use Me? What the hell were they thinking?

It's a submissive masochistic thing. Some people like to be used by a higher power. ;-)

Wow! They're... extravagant. That "Jesus Use Me" was wonderful.

Somewhere out there is a Faith Tone groupie, some poor guy who wants to be used my any and all of these beehived Rock Goddesses. Probably one in every town on the tour. However, I would not be one of those dude.

I... was confused as to the gender of the singers on the first album. For a minute I thought they were guys in wigs. Sorry, ladies. I think it's something about how the hair doesn't quite seem to sit on the heads comfortably.

That second one you included is a MAZ ing.

Easy to think that. Men typically have large protruding chins, like Jay Leno the king of chins. Hee.

Yeah, pretty funny stuff. Couldn't resist posting about it.
