greatest album with the worst cover-art

I hope you've understood it well

I'm listening to "Cosmo's factory" by Creedence Clearwater Revival
the album is fantastic (for those who love CCR) but I never understood the art cover, one of the ugliest ever
I think it is the worse cover art quality /musical quality ratio
On the contrary, the best I can ever think of is the White album : excellent inside and outside !

Re: greatest album with the worst cover-art

Oh and by the way Anthony, thank you for the link you posted on the country thread about Ongoing History of New Music, a top Canadian radio show about the strory of rock after punk
There's a very good show about cover art

Nirvana's Nevermind, the kid thinks he's the world biggest porn star now.. that can't be good.

"Elden announced that he felt like a porn star. "It's kind of creepy that that many people have seen me naked," Elden said. "I feel like I'm the world's biggest porn star.""

Re: greatest album with the worst cover-art

Actually, the very highest rated album in AM (and a fine one it is!) has an extremely tacky cover. There are worse covers around, of course, but if we're talking cover "badness" relative to musical brilliance, you've got a serious candidate :-)

Not the greatest albums but surely the worst cover arts!

Re: greatest album with the worst cover-art

Impressive, Henrik!

Come to think of it, there was a long list of awful cover art on Rate Your Music, wasn't there?
