Worst record cover ever
I was walking down Clark Street the other night when I passed one of the many record stores that line the street. These places usually have dozens of old records in the windows to entice passers by. This one caught my eye:
This is "Push Push" by jazz flutist Herbie Mann. It really is quite tacky. Supposedly this is a good jazz record, but I am not much of a jazz afficionado so I can't speak to that. What I can tell you, however, is that others have noticed the horribleness of this cover, including Pitchfork, who describes it in typical Pitchfork fashion. I think the reasons to dislike this album cover are fairly self-evident. Personally, I am still trying to get my vision back.
