The Worst Album Covers Ever! by Nick DiFonzo

Record collector and author Nick DiFonzo likes to gather what he calls “forgotten records.” He finds them mostly at swap meets and second-hand shops. These so-called forgotten records vary in description from the weird to the religious. One thing many of them have in common is that they have terrible album covers. DiFonzo catalogs some of his more outrageous finds in this small coffee table-style book. There’s the fingerless fiddler, the singing midget, Orleans and lots of innuendo-laden references to the organ (you know, the musical one). As a music fan and album collector myself, I enjoyed this book a lot. Still, anyone in need of a laugh should get something out of it.
