Union 5-3992 Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 What are some albums that are hated bye people in general or by the fans, yet have some really iconic artwork? Or just artwork you like a lot Though I like this album, a lot of people generally do not: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can you tell me that the title track, Johnny Blade, Junior's Eyes, Hard Road, Over To You, Shock Wave and Air Dance are not good songs? The last couple are poor for sure but all the rest of it is good stuff. Not as good as the first 6 albums but still very good. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The artwork is just the artwork and you've discovered you got used to it somewhere along the way. Edited June 13, 2016 by treeduck 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But even then, the band used an unfinished piece for the final album art! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Not Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 (edited) I could have a lot of fun listing good albums with bad covers, but as for this I'm drawing a blank. How about this one: widely considered to be a bad album by Alice. I like it, but I know it's nowhere near his best: Another album I like (in fact, aside from a dud or two it has, I find this album to be fantastic), but most are upset with: Edited June 13, 2016 by Mr. Not 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oracle Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 http://billbungay.com/Items_For_Sale/lp_records/G/grateful_dead_go_to_heaven_lg.jpg Easily my least favorite Dead album cover. Really great album though. Gotta love Althea and Saint of Circumstance. I have to admit though, Jerry and Bobby look damn fine in white suits. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
