Great show guys! Lots of great choices. I'll make a list off of the top of my head. AC/DC - Let There Be Rock KISS - KISS The Dictators - Bloodbrothers Van Halen - Van Halen II ( back cover ) Metallica - Kill 'em All ( back cover ) Humble Pie - King Biscuit Flower Hour Presents: Humble Pie in Concert Randy California - Kapt. Kopter & The Fabulous Twirly Birds Guns N Roses Appetite For Destruction ( back cover ) Def Leppard - High N Dry ( back cover ) The Doors - Waiting for the Sun Slayer - South of Heaven ( back cover ) etc etc
Queen A Day at the Races (gatefold) Great live shot of the band probably doing an acoustic number Uriah Heep The Magicians Birthday Gate fold. Great pics of the band members. Blackfoot Marauder back cover Monster Magnet Powertrip Deep Purple Made in Europe back cover Rainbow Rising Back cover Led Zeppelin Vol 3 back cover Alice Cooper Welcome to My Nightmare Heart - tie between Little Queen and Bebe Le Strange Nazareth Play n The Game
Most of the Jam albums for me; In the City, All Mod Cons, The Gift and This is the Modern World are all great covers; The Beat (Paul Collins Beat) is another brilliant shot of the band on the street and finally The Flamin' Groovies on the cover of Shake Some Action, where they're standing next to the Jag.
I was thinking UFO - No Place To Run (thought Martin might have chosen this ) and Alice Cooper - Billion Dollar Babies original gatefold sleeve ... bit weird though for obvious reasons 🙃
Biased because I'm a huge "Sweet" fan. That pose of Brian, Steve, Mick & Andy, on the inside of the Level Headed album, from 1978!..Also, Jim Seals & Dash Crofts on the cover of Get Closer album, from 1976...Their look of absolute "hippie" serenity.
I watched the entire video waiting to see the back cover of Rush's 2112 with them showing off their kimodos scrotal-style. And a big miss leaving out Slade's front cover of Old New Borrowed and Blue. A bunch of handsome lads there.
Yeah, Grant! Ramones, baby! Ramones for the WIN! You just neglected to mention Johnny Ramone surreptitiously giving the middle finger in that friiggin’ awesome pic, man. I loved the Steely Dan/Denny Diaz line too, “l don’t know if he’s going to farm, or work on your car.” Bwhahahahahahahaha! Classic. Another cool show, cats. Cheers from The Big Apple. 🍏 Rock Out, Prog On & Pogo! Your pal and ours, ~ The Lugubrious, Sonorous, Delirious, Davey Cretin from CRETIN CLASSICS.

Radio Birdman - Radios Appear ( I prefer the black and white photo )
No mention of Trouble's S/T album?
Thanks for shouting out the central Ohio bands grant. Love both of those. Chatfield just joined one of your favorite bands, grand funk!
Have to agree with the Crue. They looked like badasses, even with mascara. Tough street gutter rat look.
I guess you had to be there.
No one looks cooler than Bob Dylan on the Blonde on Blonde cover. I mean the scarf, the hair, and that look he has just screams rock star.
I would watch another round of these!
Darkthrone always look the part on their album cover photoshoot
