You cannot imagine how bad these are:

Worst Album Covers

9 Comments

  1. Marty,

    Those are some awesome covers. I especially like these:

    The Louvin Brothers “Satan is Real” – But on our album cover he is a cartoon -a really bad cartoon.

    And someone tell Father Robert White that the pipe adds a nice, personal touch to the cover.

    And Mike Crain seems to be auditioning for the Power Team with his cover.

    Freddie Gage – Nice boots !!

    But my favorite, The Kings Three -with four members. One of these guys needs to get saved, quick.

    On a more current note -although this album is several years old, I have to smile every time I see the following Sanctus Real cover for their album “Say It Loud”. Hopefully, the following link will give you a look at it. I couldn’t attach my scan of the cover.

    Let’s see some other funny or corny album covers -new or old.

  2. The “Reverend in Rhythm” album sounds/looks pretty interesting, actually. Maybe it’s the pipe.

    The Christian Crusaders need capes.

    I voted for “Satan is Real.”

  5. Those Louvin Brothers look to be having much too good a time there amidst Beelzebub and the burning coal and what not. Maybe hell’s just a really bad duet?

  8. Where can I find a smoking jacket like the one Father Robert White has. He is one cool cat. Although, before I enlarged the photo on Marcy Sings, it looked like she was not wearing anything. I thought, “good thing the sticker was there” and then I thought “What else does Marcy do. What Kind of Gospel Album is this” Anyway, I digress

  9. If you liked that, Marc over at Purgatorio has a regular post called “Divine Vinyl” that has some of these same people and their covers. I get it in my feed reader and it always brightens my day in a sick kind of way.
