2. Gawd that's funny
Edited on Tue Mar-08-05 01:12 PM by tridim
That almost beats the old set for hilarity.

Ken.. I request that you change out of that leisure suit and get a haircut.

What goes on at a Tijuana picnic anyway? Honestly, I never expect KFC in Mexico. Maybe illegal fireworks and hookers, but not original recipe.

6. I had that record.
Seeing that they also had a single called "suvival of the fattest," I don't think the cover was meant to be serious.

What is it about that cover makes you think it's winter besides his sweater? :D

27. Hm, good point.
Some sort of "androgenous" season? All things at once? The sweater + the white ground made me think of winter, but it could be that the white is just a neutral background, and it is indeed summer. Now you got't me all confused.

30. It looks like a beachfront vacation home to me.
Edited on Tue Mar-08-05 01:49 PM by tridim
Note the palm trees.

Another question.. Who is the "Swede"? The dude, or the prancing family he's about to grind up in the wood chipper? I guess the only way to find out is to buy the album. :)

And is it, "Understand You Are Swede"? or "Understand Your Swede"? So many questions.

12. Now, those are laff-out-loud funny
I was wondering if they'd ever get a new set. I think those are even more funny than the originals.

But me thinks God will soon OD on booze and heroin. And why is God stabbing that poor woman with the needle? And why is she in a bottle?

That heroin needle has no godly reason to be on that cover. Wonder what "The Late Liz" is about?

Edit: Found it on google..

Gertrude Behanna
Author of book-The Late Liz, (was also made into a movie 1970's)
"...the autobiography of a very human personality that emerged from a
miasma of glamour, sex, liquor, and irresponsibility."

Sounds like my kind of movie!

46. Question on Jimmy Jenson
I remember similar sappy faux-Scandinavian humorous songs but they were by someone named Yogi Yorgesson. Anyone recall him. And also are we getting into Branson MO territory with these entertainers. Take Yakov Smirnoff. Please.

52. Thanks for posting this
Those covers are laugh-at-loud hilarious! I go looking for records at flea markets and garage sales a lot and am always hoping I will find something deliciously awful like some of those, but most of them seem to be true rarities. Good stuff...
