My Wife as a Duran Duran Album Cover
I don't know about anyone else, but I'm suddenly hungry like the wolf.
And before you ask, no, we will not be doing "My Wife as a Motley Crue Album Cover." Slap yourself.

You and Bruce Campbell...

How about a Molly Hatchet cover with a sort of Wagnerian Valkyrie kind of feel to it? Think you could pull that one off?

Good God, man! I'm not Boris Vallejo!

Frank Frazzeta?

I was once a Chili Peppers album cover. One of the highlights of my life, really.
Dan | May 26, 2007 08:12 PM
Thanks Randy. I can never, for the life of me, remember Frazetta's name.

How about Roxy Music (showing my age)?

So I went searching for bad album covers.
Holy Crack Whore Batman... my eyes are still bleeding!
This isn't safe for work, but I'm sure you'll get a kick out of some of these. The rest will make you wonder what production genius was behind the camera.

Btw, once again, great pic of Krissy.

Oh my god, Kate! That is just filled with awesome. I think I will have nightmares of Orion Reborn. Those sans-a-belt trousers just scream "feel my metal thunder beyotch!"

I'm glad you're not doing a Mötley Crüe cover. The world has plenty of large eighties hair, overdone makeup and bad fantasy outfits already.

Do the J. Geils Band! J. Geils Band!

What about a John as Boy George or Adam Ant picture then?
Growing up in the eighties was fun (well apart from Thatcherism and Chernobyl of course), I wish they'd come back now I'm old enough to enjoy them properly.

Suddenly the urge came to fire up my copy of "Wild Boys" and sing along. Poorly. The cat (untaped at the moment) is giving me that look.

Hey Kate,
Thanks for the link for the album covers. I haven't had a laugh like that in a long time!!!

I've got a photo of my wife that looks like a Roxy Music album cover but it's best that I keep that sort of thing private unless I enjoy sleeping on the couch.

ROFL
Great picture. Isn't photo manipulation fun?
