 Topic: Top 3 Worst Prog album covers Ever!
Posted: October 19 2009 at 20:29 |
I have been inspred by other threads here with album cover so lets have some fun.
Websites with album covers are The Abbey Road album cover page
And the Worst ever covers - painful and watch the content here....
Anyway this is prog
Have a rant and post the Worst Prog album covers you can find. Should be a hoot! Its gotta be prog though  
you just have to copy and paste them in from Google images if you didnt know - too easy....
Here's King Crimsons THRAK! What the heck is that sposd to be?
Hey! Heres a great idea for an album cover = lets take a snap of a rusted broken door...... Yeesh!
Another stinker! orrible colours and silly design that I could do better. no, really!
Yes - Big Generator (or Big Purple-Potato)
And Last and perhaps least and to beat everyone else to it... 
the appalling ELP Love Beach - or 'Slush' Beach
OK I am ready now
post those covers.....

Actually, even if the Mwandishi trilogy is awesome, and way better than this one, it's a good album.
With an AWFUL cover. You know Herbie Hancock?

Here's two from King Crimson:
The only redeeming feature of both albums is the font used in the titles otherwise...very boring!!

hey I thought of those earlier too - admittedly good music but detestable covers. I cant stand it when bands do this. They place a logo and then settle for these without imagination.
A lot of KCs albums do this look at Beat and Three of a PP - bad bad bad
