Picture Thread: Bobby Womack's Weird-Ass Square Glasses

I've been preoccupied with pictures of this lately. I guess I just want to know why. Has anyone else, even Elton John, ever gone this sartorial route?

I find octagonal glasses to be a bit disconcerting:

Not quite square, but still troubling:

Did he ever do anything greater than 'Woman's Gotta Have It' and 'Across 110th Street?'

did he ever do anything greater than...

well yeah, "daylight" and "more than i can stand" and "it's gonna rain" and several others, mainly done with chips moman and reggie young, are all aces; and "harry hippie" is also great. "the poet" on beverly glen label was a huge record in '81 or whenever that came out; and it's weird, clearly b.w. was struggling with disco by then, but "if you think you're lonely now" is prime. and those glasses are totally cool.
