To quote the article; does anyone need a further reason to hate Ted Nugent? I was going to post it, but I...I just can't. I'll do another one instead.

1. That last one has a stunning element of goatse to it

don't look up goatse if you don't know what it means.

4. Ow! Mental image! Mental image!

Gross! Gross! Gross!
Didn't want that in my head!

ick. pha. phtoie.

:puke:


...but isn't it interesting that goatse is in our cultural zeitgeist now?

7. thanks---- i just finished my supper.

[Captain Angry]

2. That Prince one was great.

Thanks for the giggles.

[bahrbearian]

3. I liked Ani Defranco's cover

Ted Nuggents Sucks

[Warren Stupidity]

5. I'm trying to remember what an album was.

I'm pretty sure it had something to do with something called a phonograph or 'record player'.

[Warpy]

6. The other Ted Nugent cover was worse

It looks like he hired one of Flynt's cover artists from the late 70s.

Nice to know how much he loathes all women.

[Kurovski]

8. Nugey is a total pigtard.

But he'd giggle and drool if you told him so.

I say: PHOTOSHOPPERS, get to work on the old shitbag! Do him up one better.

9. Hard to beat with PhotoShop what nature did to him.

Strangely, he is blissfully unaware of both his willful ignorance and distinct lack of attractiveness.

[Kurovski]

10. You make an inarguable point. (nt)

[Jade Fox]

11. I like Di Franco and the Eagles cover.....

Nugent's cover is unspeakable. Thanks for not posting it.

[Number9Dream]

12. Many 60's & 70's covers were terrific art

Growing up in the 60's - 70's, I remember when pride was taken in many album covers, and many were works of art. Design groups like Hipgnosis produced amazing stuff. "Dark Side Of The Moon" included two posters and two stickers. Remember this one?

13. How about this for bad album covers?

I think thats James Carville before he lost all his hair.

14. Here is the Lips from Rocky Horror

There is something Freudian about this.



How about "My Fair Lady" ?

[On the Road]

15. I Don't Know What's So Horrible About Some of Those

This painting reminds of me of some of the things Dylan put on his covers (eg, Planet Waves):



And this one is stupid, but it made me laugh:



In the late 60s, bands pretty much put anything that would get attention on a cover.
