Sometimes you just can't make your mind up which was the best photo. :-\

A Reader's Digest classical music box set.

Speaking of classical, I'm torn between these two. :-\

She might as well have taken her hands off, they hide nothing because there's nothing to hide.  ;D

Papy Oli

Her career went downhill after that...  :blank:

That looks very appropriate for a romantic easy listening album, maybe playing in the background in an Italian restaurant. :-*

That caption made me laugh out loud.

As did the green people, just because it has "Whiter Shade of Pale" on the cover.

It isn't the worst, but does anybody else see a pepperoni pizza lying on the ground? That's what I see on the cover.

Madiel

Yes, it definitely gives a pizza impression.

Pizza for me as well. I wonder what it really is.

I suppose that the autumnal leaves and moss may (vaguely) refer to one of the Cassou poems

l n'y avait que des troncs déchirés,
que couronnaient des vols de corbeaux ivres,
et le château était couleur de givre,
ce soir de fer où je m'y présentai.
Je n'avais plus avec moi ni mes livres,
ni ma compagne, l'âme, et ses péchés,
ni cette enfant qui tant rêvait de vivre,
quand je l'avais sur terre rencontrée.
Les murs étaient blanchis au lait de sphynge
et les dalles rougies au sang d'Orphée.
Des mains sans grâce avaient tendu des linges
aux fenêtre borgnes comme des fées.
La scène était prête pour des acteurs
fous et cruels à force de bonheur.

Is it being devoured by grubs?

This would make more sense if she had posed as each Beatle in each picture! Heck, get it over with and do an Abbey Road cover tribute with four of her crossing the road, one of them barefoot...

That's it? A photo of a CD?



It's a sampler. Given that lots of samplers never even had covers, it's doing okay.
