Hey, I like that bottom cover.

[pjme]

how about this one....

BTW; I like Sandor Vegh's craggy face! A great conductor -  with real traits .



W.H.Auden's face is another good example : almost land art!

What were they doing with poor old Fluff (RIP), here:

Not only is the design poorly done...but why is this girl hugging a giant cat paw?

You'd think Supraphon would be a little better, but that awful piano recital disc isn't alone. 

[Bonehelm]

Lmao...this thread never fails to crack me up.

[Kullervo]

Ugh! That is just painful to behold.

Ugh! That is just painful to behold.

It was probably made in paint, as it looks like it has jpeg artefacts all over it

Yeah, not what I would call "exposed."

Somebody at Spiegel must be reading GMG. Here is a glorious collection of derailments of good taste:

Aww, it included a few joke bands - serious bands looking stupid are much better I'm very impressed that they managed to find a large scan of the Handsome Beasts cover, though. They are a good (and funny) band It's now my desktop wallpaper!

That cover is awesome, Corey!!

You really think it belongs here in this thread?

Hee! I don't know, maybe not. It's really just a cheesy concept rather than poor album design, but this thread seems to be a catch-all for both. Reminds me of an old Samantha Fox video where she's singing in a swimming pool (with a live microphone, no less).

I can think of quite a few pop stars that I'd like to throw in a pool with live mics.

Ooh, I like that cover, too.  (Although I can certainly see why some wouldn't.)
