Worst album art I’ve seen in a long while, from Michaelangelo, an early-’70s U.S. folk-rock band. This was released on Columbia.

Boing Boing oddly linked to a site I’ve enjoyed called LP Cover Lover. The site serves as an online warehouse for curious record covers, most of them several decades old. The stranger the subject, the greater the likelihood a record has been recorded in honor of it. Case in point: Music to Help Clean Up Stream Pollution By. Of course, I spend time on sites like this one, in part, because it gives me great cover options for my theme mixes, like ORGANS!. Here’s the cover BB posted about, as well as a few other good ones from the site.

I had the opportunity to pick up the following one at WILL’s Vintage Vinyl sale a few summers ago, but passed because it was $15 and in poor shape. The Makers spoofed this cover for a 7″ of the same name they released many moons ago.

Hmm, maybe I’ve found the cover for STRINGS! … ? How would my face look on this?
