An album cover collection exploring 70 years of surprising, shocking and frankly hilarious nude and provocative art. Sexy covers sold all musical genres, from funk to punk, and the silly German schlager. Comedy albums range from mid-century "stag party" pin-ups to the undeniably raunchy '70s sensation, Blowfly. Steamy, seamy and adults only.
Ive collected sexy records since 1977. Most are small label, small production, local distribution releases from the 1960s through the 90s. In many cases I may have the only extant copy, or one of very few, in the world. Which is why I wanted this book to exist. * Collector/Author Eric Godtland *
