Mary Tyler Moore: The cheesecake years
Before she was LAURA PETRIE, the happy homemaker on the Dick Van Dyke Show, Mary Tyler Moore modeled and was annonomously featured on (to date I count 13) low budget lp covers. She was so easy on the eyes that she seemed right at home on the covers of Latin music, Italian music and British music records for example.
Getting a head
“Music for Trapping (Tender, that is)” A prime example of a “bachelor pad” record from the late fifties. Elliot Lawrence provides the cool, jazzy background music for guys on the make (like this cad looking for one more trophy to mount). Top Rank records.
Space Escapade
A masterpiece of the space age bachelor pad genre. Les Baxter is synonomous with exotica and his records from the late fifties and early sixties define a style with adventurous, exotic and “way out” sounds. This is a cool cover from a time when the space program was launching and B movies were king.
