Pookie, that's a fuckin' cool cover.

Edited: Seriously fuckin' cool. I now consider it one of my favourite album covers of all time. Look at the detail!

I just think it's so (unintentionally) funny.

I suppose I can't seperate the cover from the album and the time.

It came out when I worked in a record shop and the manager played it constantly. And even though Jeff Beck has made some good albums, this isn't one of them.

Another thing was that it came out in 1989, the same time I was listening to bands like Mudhoney, Nirvana & Big Black. And this was just so opposite to everything I liked in an album cover!

The epitome of 1980'2 "classiness" - yeech:

Which hole is that crucifix penetrating?--It's sometimes difficult to differentiate at this angle. If it's in her box, well, that was done in the movies years ago. If it's up her arse, however, then it's extremely cool.

I like some of his songs, but by god this has to be the worst cover I have seen.

A lot of these crappy album covers are for crappy albums. Has there been crappy album covers for good albums? I'm still thinking of one.
