FANTASTIC album covers - Homer Bluth - 11-03-2016

Scary Monsters is one of best albums IMO also
I still prefer 1979's "lodger" though, and 2013's "the next day" is bloody good also.
Bowie is such a rare talent that I actually think of him as both. I can have just as much enjoyment listening to a Bowie album as I can listening to a Bowie Greatest Hits collection (and I cannot say that about most artists)! My personal favorite albums of his are Station to Station, Low, and Scary Monsters, but it's also safe to say I would happily listen to any album he made between the late 60's and, say, 1980, with some occasional good songs after that.

Tales of Mystery and Imagination - The Alan Parsons Project - did you see the giant on the front cover?

I agree - a great cover, but the music is hideous. More of that growling nonsense.

If you know anything about this band, you will realise that as well as being a visually intriguing cover, it also says a lot about the band itself. Their "roots" are in death metal, rendered here as resembling hell - while their later music is much gentler, almost pastoral, and has none of the growl vocals that characterised their earlier albums.

At first you may not notice that some of the players are nude.
