Ive heard something very similar to that. So i dont doubt that its true.



Yep, I've heard the same story too.. don't know if it's true though. But that cover is apparently REAL. I just don't understand how the record company let them do something as sick as that... Sick people!

Here's another. Do you think 80's album cover design saw rise to the commonly used addage: "Less is more"?     e.g, Hold Your Fire (below), 90125...

The scariest thing is the first three tracks are "whipped cream", "a taste of honey" and "magic trumpet".... no sexual connotations there, then! Prince, where are you when we need you?

Oh my god I HAVE TO HEAR This record,"whipped cream", "a taste of honey" and "magic trumpet"....  what about putting it in the MP3 section?

I just couldn't believe these two:




Bloody Hell - it's been a while since I've thought of this band.... I actually bought this album when it first came out; The Handsome Beasts hail from Nuneaton in the UK's West Midlands, and were actually a fairly good Sabbath type band, but spun through with a deep vein (thrombosis) of humour
