How is it that album covers deemed "the worst" are so consistently my favorites? This one's amazing, he's written little "zingers" next to each cover. Being an artist, i try to look at everything with an artists eye, and these were the ones i found with NO artistic appeal whatsoever.
I'd like to know what he does like.

Has anyone actually heard the albums that always appear on the "Worst Covers Ever" lists? Devistatin Dave: Zip Zap Rap, Joyce, Heino, Tino: Por Primera Vez, Ken: By Request Only, that one above...I'll bet one of them is actually a masterpiece.

I had to look up for some more info on this. Along with all the observational comedy eg: He's got a beer and had a smokes, what's she getting for her birthday then?
is:
Now the song is about a father and daughter. It's the daughters 16th Birthday and her first date...dad is out in a honky tonk drinking,and on his way home to see his julie off on her first date, he gets in a car accident. When he wakes up in the hospital he asks someone to tell julie that he's sorry he missed her 16th birthday...and the reply is that you can tell her your self when you get to heaven.... in a jist

I shouldn't repost from other chatpages, but: (continues)
By the way looks aren't everything!! By the way John Bult is my ex-father-in-law and a GREAT Human Being I hope people never post ugly things about you for the whole world to read!!!
Gideon said... Chillax, Tara. That album cover's fuckin' hysterical. I'm sure John, himself, can at least concede this point.
p.s. and he's not your ex-father in law, so shut the fuck up
