Whip it!

“Whipped Cream”   Herb Alpert’s Tijuana Brass   Columbia/EMI   France (Courtesy of Lp cover lover Uncle Gil) How refreshing to see this record with an alternate cover!   The original one being one of the most familiar of the sixties.   Upon closer inspection, this is kinda gross – looks more like sour cream (with chives?).

Red velvet cheesecake

“Red Velvet”   Stanley Black and his Orchestra   London Records   This ubiquitous dollar record is easy listening pablum.   Aural wallpaper.   The cover is pretty tame, lifeless and unsexy, but it does have a fifties babe surrounded by LP’s and a sweet console.

Another club date

McDonald’s Cave   By The Piltdown Men   Capitol Records Sweden   (Thanks again Ulf)     I feel like this photo is on a U.S. album cover too.   I’ll think of it.   Unless someone out there can first.   I’ll throw in an LP Cover Lover T-shirt to anyone that can show me an American released LP with the same cover…
