That Jimmy Turner song stopped me in my tracks. That was smokin. I want that record and I don't even collect.

Oh, holy, steaming shit through a screen door, this is BRILLIANT. Your videos usually carry some degree of 'someone's getting slapped upside the skull by a flaming wrecking-ball of ice', but this one is a masterpiece. That Gary album is maybe the worst ever with its cover 'art' and contents. I may not sleep tonight because of that one. I need more.

That Fiona Apple joke re: Death Grips was a gem! Great video, you'd be some craic to hang out with!
-
Absolutely dying at "Let Me Touch Him", haven't seen that one before.

Lisa Whelchel is a former Mickey Mousketeer, and who played the character Blair Warner in the TV series "The Facts of Life" Her lp, "All Because of You," was nominated for a 1984 Grammy.

You had me laughing so hard with this video! Great video keep ‘em coming!

lol @Tammy Faye. I was in a weekend musical for charity based on her life. I played her second husband Roe, other unnamed characters, and I got to sing a love song toward the end. She was fully supportive of the show, and she passed on the same weekend that we did it. Fun memory, bittersweet! Another great video, man 👍

Man that was some killer tickling of the ivory’s on that Jimmy Turner album! I remember when Pat Boone and Alice Cooper appeared on some awards show and Alice introduced Pat as the future of Rock n Roll and he came out decked out in leather and studs! LoL!

OMFG, this is HILARIOUS!! Reminds me of that recurring David Letterman theme where he played awful albums. Your comments are great. More please!
-
Man. you never cease to amaze. Pure gold.

🤣 This had me rolling. Too damn funny. I've seen a few of those, but some I have not. Thanks for the laughs!

A common album on the 'worst covers' list is Satan is Real by the Louvin Brothers. I was curious what it sounded like and was blown away by one of the best albums I've ever heard. Even if you're not religious it's impossible not to appreciate the songwriting and vocal harmonies. Apparently Bob Dylan is a fan

Gary is giving off strong, "Kirk Van Houten: Can I Borrow A Feeling?" vibes.
-
Devastatin' Dave has some electric boogaloo vibes goin' on😂

I had a musician friend who bought that Pat Boone album when it came out. He was into Blues and Zappa and Butthole Surfers but when he saw a heavy metal album by Pat Boone in the store he couldn't resist. It got a play or two and then mysteriously vanished.
-
Fun fact - the artist for the Born Again cover was overbooked and instead of quitting the project, he decided to slap together that cover as a mockup and send it to the band so they would fire him. The band loved it. I love it too. stoner metal band Bong Wizard also has a cover that plays off the Pantera cover called Vulgar Display of Flower

I'm surprised the imported "Blind Faith" album was not on the list; especially so given the prominence the group had with members: Eric Clapton, Steve Winwood, Ginger Baker, and Ric Grech. Of course, displaying the album's artwork could violate the terms of decency with YouTube; but I recall seeing it in US record stores in the mid-to-late 1970s for all eyes to see.

Thank you Robert. I am currently decorating my wall with bad album covers. 70s compilations are the go-to. Utterly objectionable by todays standards. As a viewer in the UK, I have to tell you that 'Enter Me Lord' by Mary Hinge is fabulous twice over. Keep up the good work.

Gary is all legs and no torso.

He seems to dislike a lot of these but still has them in his collection! I do enjoy his take on things!
