Flog It Blog, Worst Album Covers Ever, Rock In The Dock!


Molly The Wally Come Howl With Me!


Molly The Wallys’ Top Ten Worst Album Covers Ever, The Rock In The Dock Edition!

Yesterday we looked at uneasy listening and today it is the turn of those rock giants! Dedicated to Sweet William The Scot for his wonderful ‘Name That Song Competition’, which I never got right EVER!


Yep hurry up and boggie the Po-Po are on the way. As are the fashion police and the FTA.  Chop chop now I can hear the sirens.


Less ManOwar more ManOwoe! We all loved Conan the Barbarian but this is a bit much. You’d think this was from the 80s but sadly it was released in 1997. Rubbish fonts, Rubbish hairstyles, Rubbish photo,… say no more!


Every night and every day? Surprised they got time to make a record? Oh man, there is nothing super about this!


Hey it is Devastatin Dave, The Turntable Slave? Zip, zap, rap! Being a turntable slave sounds like nothing to brag about unless you are a little deviant! Shouldn't ZIP appear in the spot where ZAP is placed? I’ll give him zap! Anyone got a taser handy or even a stun gun?


The Age of Renaissance was a period of enlightenment, thought, art, culture and advancement in science. This album withdrawn for misrepresentation under ‘The Sale of Goods Act’.


Swamp Dogg, Snoop Dogs’ Grandpa! Jerry Williams, Jr. took on the handle ‘Swamp Dogg’ in 1970, which must have started the trend for ‘Dogg’ to spelt with 2gs. Does that makes him the original 'Doggfather'? There are a number of ways you could interpret the title, but we won’t. 



Fabulous Fabio! Yep, but then there's the morning after???? Fabio's album cover promised to be buried in the bottom of record store bargain bins for eternity. Grazie, Fabio great hair! Ladies stop drooling!


Look into my crystal boobs ball. You will buy this album, YOU WILL buy this album. Please, please buy this album. E.S.P, stands for ‘extra sexual persuasion’, by the way. Did it work for you? Well it did for Larry Wattley, who signed his name on it with a black marker. He didn’t want his friends walking off with his treasured Millie Jackson LP Collection.


One for the Urban Hounds! William Shitner Shatner The ‘Star Trek’ captain returns from the final frontier. In space, no one can hear you sing. . . but sadly here we can! Is that a badly photo-shopped rocket exploding from your chest Captain?


Europe & The Final Countdown! Let’s hope it was the final album cover. Now maybe your nostalgia for the 1980s should stop now or you will be singing it all day. The single was No.1 in 25 countries. The album cover of the long haired Swedish ones shows them as playing cards drifting from planet Earth. Guess they were heading to a Black Hole never to be heard of again. 


And lastly we could not leave out Mr.Richard Clayderman. Yep I can’t help myself…….One of us is sighing….one of us is crying……..in a lonely room…….staring at the ceiling
wishing we were somewhere else instead…! ABBA knew they had made it when this came out. 


And so concludes are look at the worst Album covers ever. Tomorrow the last in Series 1 of Dogton Abbey!

  4. If there were ever a GOLDEN GLOBE award for the best in journalistic achievements, it GOES TO THE UNSINKABLE MIZ MOLLY! You really outdid yourself with this one dear Miz M.! Gosh those covers are hideous!

  5. Out of all those covers....Fabio's was at least looking like it was done by a professional. The rest look like the artists did them themselves, or maybe had their kids help. You would think Capt. Kirk would have plenty of money to get it done right!

  6. I...am...almost...speechless. Captain Kirk...oh...nooooooo.

  7. I thought Fabio did romance covers. Molly you can do those covers next. So my Name That Song contest is still stuck in your brain. I will have to revive the contest just to torment you!
    Thanks for being a friend

  8. Very funny indeedy - although Fabio looks quite lovely after dark but as you said Molly, not so sure about the morning after - I suspect that hair could be a hairpiece and you could wake up lying next to that and nothing else on the pillow! Cant wait for Dogton Abby don't ever let it end Betty x

  20. Those ARE bad. Makes me wonder why the peeps are always crying that they miss "cover art" on CDs. I'll stick to downloading and NOT seeing those monstrosities.
