Worst Album Cover

[CP/M User]

Perhaps not seriously bad:

but in terms of album covers this has me stumped - what's it suppose to be? I through it had something to do with recordable media - since the album is called the Final Cut, but I don't really know.

Might have worked in 1984, butt these days it's just a sad reminder of what people were thinking in 1984!

I liked that cover! <scratches head and rolls eyes>

And this one:



When it first came out I recall thinking "I like what I've heard of his music but that is just too gay for me."

Those insignias sure remind me of a uniform CP/M, where you get a "Patch" for every tour you have been part of...other than that I have no idea what it means, and I have that album in the library.

Magic, I liked that cover too, just an average guy looking at the flag.

Hepcat...I don't like Prince, never liked his music and you are right those are just too gay for me too.

I wonder what possessed Prince to have those covers.........

He wasn't gay was he?

I have my reasons for disliking Bruce Springsteen's cover, so in the Worst Album Covers it goes. I'm still trying to work out if that's a Red Cap or a Whoopee cushion sticking out of his bum pocket - either way it's so 80s and so outdated!

more recent covers these 2... But they belong in the thread nevertheless..

I quite like the Animal Collective one!

Of course Dire Straits had to give us one!
