Sometimes I miss album covers.
Holding a big album in your hand, with a great cover and liner notes was something. It felt like you got something back for your spent cash.

But today, i took a look through some of the album covers from quite famous artists, and now I'm not too sure anymore.

We paid good money for that?
Anyone else got some "good" ones from famous groups/artists?

I wonder what he thinks about that cover today?

While I didn't go that far, I did have (non-shiny) dark red leather pants back when. Needless to say, there's not a snowball's chance of being able to get them on now, even with pliers. Leather shrinks with age, well known fact.

I also believe I have a Nehru jacket somewhere in my closet, and clip-on frills for the shirt front. And hell no, I am so not going to post pics to prove it :p

I believe you. A camel hair British woolen jacket was a fave of mine, but, (earlier) my James Dean jacket ruled. I didn't wear frills with the Nehru, but, like Sammy Davis, the turtle neck supported a groovy chain and trinket (a jade buddah). 8) All this long before Rap jumped on board. :wink:

Oh, those KrAZy Famous Group album covers:
