Art Sandusky 0 Report post Posted June 20, 2006 Sure were. Why'd they sign that pseudo-jazz hack? He's like a male Norah Jones. And that's debatable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Giuseppe Zangara 0 Report post Posted June 20, 2006 Norah Jones is on Blue Note, isn't she? I guess I can't blame them and Verve for signing such acts. It's not like jazz is tearing up the Billboard charts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Giuseppe Zangara 0 Report post Posted June 20, 2006 Unbearably cheesy photo framed by odds-and-ends that, together, have the color scheme of post-breakfast vomit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Art Sandusky 0 Report post Posted June 20, 2006 They're Russian nesting dolls, I think. That is a bad cover, but I kinda like the album. Regina Spektor will always be second-rate to Nellie McKay, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Giuseppe Zangara 0 Report post Posted June 20, 2006 I forgot to add that the cover looks like it was cobbled together in less than ten minutes using mspaint. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Art Sandusky 0 Report post Posted June 20, 2006 Nah, that's a Photoshop slop job. Photoslop? Anyway, here's a better picture of Soviet Kitsch. I think my problem with it is that it looks like a bad female comedy album. You know, the ones where they talk about cleaning their vaginas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Masked Man of Mystery 0 Report post Posted June 20, 2006 Norah Jones is on Blue Note, isn't she? I guess I can't blame them and Verve for signing such acts. It's not like jazz is tearing up the Billboard charts. Last time I checked, yes, Norah Jones is on Blue Note. I recall when she debuted there was talk of her helping them get back on their feet.

Special K 0 Report post Posted June 20, 2006 Not exactly new, but this cover actually hurts your eyes at full size. Everything's this horrible faux-3D (or maybe actually 3D, my CD didn't come with glasses, so I don't care) where everything is traced with yellow, red and green. It's pretty nauseating. I like the album, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Star Ocean 3 0 Report post Posted June 20, 2006 you go to classical music for bad covers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mecha Mummy 0 Report post Posted June 20, 2006 The winner. That is just hysterically bad. And yeah, I've never seen the cover of Soviet Kitsch before but that's pretty weak. I still want to give the album itself a listen though since I'm rather fond of "Us." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Man in Blak 0 Report post Posted June 20, 2006 Not exactly recent vintage, since it's pre-Primus Les Claypool at work, but the cover for Sausage's Riddles Are Abound Tonight is ghastly: And I'll freely admit - I had a Secret Samadhi t-shirt back in high school. I never really got into "Lightning Crashes", but "Lakini's Juice" was the shit way back then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PLAGIARISM! 0 Report post Posted June 20, 2006 Album covers never were Les's strong point, though I still hold a certain fondness for him in general, and the sleeve to Brown Album is excellent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
