Smoochie

I was charmed by your lp cover log that I ran into over the weekend.

Most of my unusual covers were picked up in the early 90s when I could go to places like the local “Off Broadway Flea Market” and pick up my favorite jazz stars for around a dollar. I kept running into these odd covers that reminded me of when this kind of thing looked normal. Frankly it seems to me like it was more fun when wacky covers were a normal part of marketing these things. I hope some of these covers might find a place on your log.   — Steve Talley, Muncie, In

Space camp

img_4068.JPG

A low-budget, rip-off album of the cult movie and Jane Fonda embarrassment “Barbarella” performed by “The Young Lovers”. “The Hit Songs of the The Wild Movie & Other Way Out Themes.”   Turns out to be quite funky and hip, especially the sexadelic cut “The Black Queen’s Beads” which DJ’s picked up on at the turn of the twenty-first century. Pretty cool cover too!

Hot wax

“Chispa Candela” On the rare Miami Records label. This one’s a beauty. Right off the front of a classic men’s mag from the fifties.
