Mamie Van Doren cover

Escandalo en la Universidad (Soundtrack)  Gamma
This is a very rare record and a beautiful example of fifties cheesecake photography. This is a spanish version of the “B” movie “College Confidential” and it’s far superior in presentation to the U.S. issue. This one makes good use of star Mammie (sic) Van Doren!

Vol II  Los Santos  Musart

The theme of heaven and hell, angels and devils, good and evil is frequently illustrated on album covers of all genres. Often with humorous and sometimes sexy depictions. Here’s another nice latin cover – from simpler times. Album cover art from Latin American countries is among the best in the world. I don’t know why, but check back and I’ll show you. This is another one on the Musart label (music + art).

Bruce Wayne Gacy

Mr. Bat Sings (w/ Mrs. L. E. Tweten, accompanist)

This is one of the weirdest private press lps. The cover is amazing and has nothing to do with the generic xian music within. Clowns are creepy sometimes, but this is John Wayne Gacey scarey.

Romper Room presents Mr. Do Bee  Little World Records

Like Puff-the-Magic dragon, Mr. Doobie has been turning kids on to fun, games and songs and teaching them not to bogart since the fifties.
