I’d be remiss if I didn’t point you all to this wonderful site, a collection of the worst album covers of all time. 38 Pages of Bad Album Cover Goodness.
WARNING: A few of the album covers on the site are not safe for work
Three of my favorites after the jump…
Late Addition: As pointed out to me in the comments, sexycoolsuperspy also has a great collection of bad album art, among many other things. Be sure to check it out as well.

Nice, very nice. Being an avid collector of bad album covers – I have around 6 x the number on that site, you may or may not enjoy our wee blog, which is just a click away.
My humblest apologies if this reads like an unwanted plug, or spam…. but you quite obviously have wonderful taste in kitsch. Spread the love, I say!
That’s a really sweet header you have there, by the way

Thanks, Actress!
I added a link to your site in the original post and to my blogroll. I’ll be back to check it all out soon.

Ah, you’re a darling. Thank you so much! The Bishop and I would be very pleased to add you to our blogroll too, with your permission.
See you ’round…

By the way, the “Ken – by request only” album cover is one of our all time favourites. Although, it’s with mixed feelings for my partner-in-crime, Bishop, as I have him under the illusion that he is competition with Ken for my affections.
Ken appeared in a “pilot” version of our blog, and I’m sure he’ll be back to rile the Bishop in the not-too-distant future on our current pages. Shh, don’t tell him I told you
.
Teehee.

As I saw the title of your post whilst idly blog-browsing, I was unprepared for the depths of tastelessness and inanity that your collection of covers would plumb…I am staggered at the (anti) quality of your collection.Congratulations, Sir!
Anthropological note: Is the guy top left, Lars Kristerz band strictly human, or have we found Bigfoot?
Plus, guy bottom left, same sleeve, is it a wig or does he have a carpet on his head?

For me, Thank You for the Dove is the winner.

Garish by design. In other words, this really does sicken me. The guys who made those should have their eyes scooped out with a sharpened spoon whilst being tied to a chair and interrogated.

Sexycoolsuperspy: Thanks for adding me!
Kevmoore: I want to own the “Ken” album. I’ll check ebay later on. I suspect they all have wigs on. They need to learn to embrace the baldness. Chicks love that, right? I hope so because I’m heading in that direction.
WendyB: Thank you for your comment. Thank You For The Dove is a classic.
Valley Girl: Should I pick up one of those wigs? Can you tell they’re fake, because I don’t want to seem lame.
Virgilius: yes
