Today I managed to see Christopher Milk's "Some People Will Drink Anything!," Hot Legs' "You Didn't Like It Because You Didn't Think Of It," and the Jaggerz' "We Went To Different Schools Together," all within the span of five minutes' browsing. Warmed my heart, it did.

Potliquor - First Taste (cover and half of gatefold)
― mega pegasus for reindeer (Doctor Casino), Monday, 2 January 2017 23:23 (seven years ago) link
This album, btw, features a bogged-down, psychey-bluesy version of Poe's "The Raven," in addition to the somewhat more appealing lead single "Riverboat" (b-side: "Down the River Boogie"). Wiki gives us unique insight into the design choices:
As previously stated, Potliquor and its musical content and style are integrally connected to its Southern U.S. and south Louisiana culture. Potliquor's choice of album art also makes explicit its geographic and cultural foundations.The front cover of the First Taste album is a photograph of the group sitting down (left to right, Guy Schaeffer, George Ratzlaff, Jerry Amoroso, Les Wallace) with a glass jug, like one which would be thought to hold moonshine, being held by Amoroso. On the inside foldout, a large image of a similar jug is displayed with liner notes printed on it. The title, "First Taste", and the moonshine jug implies that this debut album is a first taste of the music of Potliquor, a play on the term "pot liquor" which is not liquor but is actually the broth that is left in the pot after cooking down vegetables. The other inner photo shows the group horse-playing in shallow water of a Louisiana bayou. On the back cover, the group is photographed around a campfire.
