Videos shot live on location near Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada
These videos are fun! I remembered a time when the cover art was almost as important as the record itself. Iron maiden somewhere in time captured many hours of my eggshell mind.
The band UFO 1975 album "Force It" had 2 mystery people on the cover making out. Only within the last several years it been confirmed who they are. Genesis P Orridge & Cosey Fanni Tutti of the influential 70's Industrial band Throbbing Gristle. Who had no relation to UFO, only to the photographer.
INTERESTING, and they are both dark occultists.
If you look at ANYTHING long enough, you can see whatever you want.
That being said, I dig your videos, Frank.
Keep up the great work!
Cheers
Thanks 👍
Keith Moon was 32 when he died, but the man was young by number only. He was old beyond his years by 1978. He looked like he was at least 45 years old. His face literally changed a lot as the 70's wore on. That's the price he paid for the unfortunate choices that he made, though to his credit he was trying to finally address his problem in '78 but it was too late.
There is a backstory about that "Who Are You" Album cover.
Before the photo shoot began Moon had become rather disgusted with his weight gain that apparently showed regarding the outfit he was wearing, so he chose to sit backwards on that chair to hide his visible paunch.
Old beyond his years - speed kill, man
How did I not know that the waitress was supposed to be the statue of liberty all these years? Lol.
She's actually the actress Kate Murtah who was in the movie Breakfast At Tiffany's which might be a pun and why she was used for the album cover, she was also in The Car (1977) and in other movies along with a long list of TV shows including My Three Sons, I Dream Of Genie, The Twilight Zone and The Munsters among others.
@@dukecraig2402 I remember the movie The Car. It was super creepy back in the day!
That Supertramp one was a bit of a stretch for me. Lol😂 Awesome video 👍☺️
Yesh, pretty big stretch...
no stretch for me.
That is definitely PT Barnum on the Michael Jackson cover and standing on his head is Tom Thumb, who was employed by Barnum.
I really like these album cover shows Frank. I know its a spooky but that Supertramp album and inner sleeve does make you think !! Keep on spinnin!!
Thanks Graham. Have a great week.
There is also a backwards 3 in dots on the back cover of Abbey Road. Lol of course IF Paul had lived- the Volkswagon plate reads 28IF!!!
I don’t think any attempt is made to hide satanic themes. It’s usually staring you right in the face with no attempt to conceal it.
I read somewhere Pete Townshend explaining the Who's Next album cover as the band "pissing on our own obelisk" - the object is vaguely reminiscent of the obelisk in 2001, Townshend was referring to the Lifehouse concept album that they had failed to complete, which several of teh songs on Who's Next were salvaged from.
Thank goodness he picked those songs. One of the all time great albums. IMO

Honestly the Supertramp one is a stretch lol. I think someone just had too much time on their hands and came up with that.
Stoked to see Tales From the Darkside on display! Cheers!
Lido, whoa, oh-oh-ohhhhh
He's for the money, he's for the show
Why do you bring that up?
That's what I was thinking to
Actually Boz Scaggs was Steve Millers' lead singer
@@crazyburkey3677 Why do you bring that up? hehe
@@Dethmeister just where our minds went, when we seen LIDO
1:49 i think Mike predicted the videogame Bioshock there 🤣🤣🤣 Deadass looks like Rapture though
Great video! I wasn’t aware of some of these! I love how the metal bands always have “sinister” suggestions ⚡️.
Keep up the great videos Frank!
Glad you enjoyed!
Hi Frank. Loved the video. Yeah sometimes the coincidental merges with the spooky omens or what not...always making for interesting discussion.
Yes, can be fun to talk about, but usually not very believeable.
Keith sat in the chair no doubt to hide his gut.
Terrific episode Frank. Size of album cover, so you can see the image, another reason vinyl is better than CD's.
Finally, if you tear the album cover into little bits of paper it resembles debris from the World Trade Center. Ominous!
😉
That’s pretty terrible
And if you worked out and ate properly you wouldn't have man boobs
There are plenty of obvious insights that 9/11 was going to happen...It's staggering actually. There's a video on bit chute that shows 101 obvious ones...
Some folks have no sense of humour 😂
The figure on the Hotel California cover looks like that Gru character from Dispicable Me. In actuality though it looks more like a dark archway in the background with the "head" being something on the railing in front of it.
There’s an album called images at twilight, by the band saga from 1979, that shows a post apocalyptic New York City with the world trade center damaged, and the Empire State building as well. Released in the same year as supertramps album 1979. Also, there is an alternative number of the beast. 616 some scholars argue that’s the older number.. It’s found in papyrus 115 and Codex Ephraemi Rescriptus. Both 666 and 616 add up to the Emperor Nero in gematria. The Romans and the early Christians thought he either didn’t die by suicide, or he would come back from the dead and retake Rome. You can read about it in the Nero redivivus legend. And finally the Anton LeVay one is funny. He was originally a carnival performer. And his daughter zeena looks like Taylor swift. This led to conspiracy theories that she’s a clone or something like that. They are both very beautiful. There are pictures online of them side-by-side. The resemblance is uncanny.
Awesome video brother like always
Thanks again!
Breakfast in America is such a awesome album
If people are seeing more than what's there on an album cover then they need to lay off the Mary Jane
Check out the two shadowy figures standing in the closet in the back left of the Hotel California picture - spirits from the past? Kind of an odd place to stand for a photo. Then again, maybe they were alive but just stoned.
People will believe absolutely anything but the truth...
Very entertaining, I guess if you look for things you will find them and can make anything out of them. Thanks!
Have you seen the original cover of Dream Theater "Live Scenes From New York"? As if the cover isn't eerie enough, it gets crazier when you realize that the album was released on September 11, 2001. Needless to say, the album was pulled right away and re-released with a different cover
I remember hearing about that... crazy!
Fun that you use the number 33.
6:08 That's kinda like the photo at the end of the movie The Shining. But The Shining came out 4 years later.
On the Rolling Stones LP Flowers only Brian Jones stem has no leaves.
Love these videos, some of the things people think they see are just amazing lol.
Thanks - I find this stuff fascinating. People will definitely see what they want to see.
Well, even the 1986 "Peace Sells, But Who's Buying?" album/CD from MEGADETH had a disturbing cover. It showed the W.T.C. in flames.
Really eh
Why would anyone think that P. T. Barnum was Aleister Crowely when the photo that was used for the painting can easily be found on the internet, plus he has one of his main attractions, Tom Thumb, standing on his head?
I doubt the figure on the Eagles album is Anton LaVey, even though he was more of an opportunist than a spiritualist. There is another urban legend surrounding him, where he had a vision just before he died and said he was all wrong about his beliefs. He died from pulmonary edema, and was unable to speak when his time came.
I very much doubt that is LaVey as well... but it's a fun urban legend.
I miss the 1980s and all those Christian shows that did backmasking on rock albums.
Those were some scary times for a young teen in a Christian household.
Maybe thats why i started listening to SLAYER.
The satanic panic... kids today will never understand the hysteria.
You should touch upon the Paul is Dead areas of Album deceptions and Beatle Urban Legends...
You could do a whole segment on Beatles albums that have clues Paul is dead
Sometimes these interpretations, legends, conspiracies, whatever you want, are pretty viable/ buyable, lije the supertramp album, but the rest of these, you gotta have a pretty wild imagination or be under the influence of a hallucinogen to believe.
I guess the obvious other one is barefoot Paul McCartney on Abbey Road... is he dead??
C'mon man. That wasn't Paul, it was Faul.
Are we just going to ignore the fact that the statue of waitress is also wearing a dress in the same color as the OJ aka 🔥 🔥 meaning that she is engulfed in 🔥. 0:40
Moon was about to be kicked out of the band. Hence the message on the chair. Not foreshadowing, but a plea to not be fired.
The man on Dangerous is PT Barnum
2:20 dude looks more like the boss Lou from the MTM show.
Ed Asner was the actors name
The hotel california one also has the half face to the bottom left of the balcony figure. I can't unsee it
Damn - never saw that! There also appears to be someone looking through the lamp in the middle opening on the opposite wall.
@@jackball74 yes i hate that cover
Crowley didn't look like that.
On that album I find the tunnel of love with a white child with an "M" on its shirt more intriguing.
M for Macaulay?
If one is open to seeing something, a lot of strange stuff may be noticed in the works of art. Take for example the famous classic (at least, in the former USSR) novel "Mindswap" by American sci-fi writer Robert Sheckley. There the protagonist Marvin Flynn (in Russian transcription, Marvin Flinn) confronts the villain Ze Kraggash. The novel was written in 1965 and it may look like it somehow hinted at the current Russian war in Ukraine: some -in or even -inn fights against some Ze, and they even went to real war to death when both of them occurred in The Twisted World, world of absurdity and surrealism. 1965, 57 years till 2022... Certainly, the novel is not a model, nor a prediction for the result of the war, and Mr. Zelensky from Ukraine is not a villain. But still, the very concept is strangely the same.
Huh.where was crowley on that album
I'm pretty sure I heard a member of the eagles say it was Anton but maybe it was a dream
THESE WERE SOME GREAT EXAMPLES I HEARD OF MOST OF THESE EXPECT THE POLICE ALBUM GHOST IN THE MACHINE I'M GONNA TRY AND SEE IT IN MY MIRROR WITH THE ALBUM THANKS FRANKS ✌🏼OUT
Have you see the Kill Oz on the cover of Mob Rules?
I can see Oz or Ozzy, but I have never been able to make out the 'kill' part.
@@Channel33RPM it's the thin streams of red running down toward the stones to the left and above OZ. The K is just above the first stone...
Like Supertramp could've possibly known about 9/11 😂
haha, no doubt.
It all really depends on who was connected to the project and not necessarily Supertramp themselves. The kind of people who make world changing moves happen have a lot of influence in Hollywood and the music scene. A lot of past and current events have been foreshadowed all throughout our media. There are way too many "coincidences" at this point to just say it's all a stretch or fluke.
Led Zeppelin 4 album inside it. You'll see the man on the mountain if you fold the album. Cover to where you just see the man on the mountain. And you put it up against a mirror you'll see a dog's face in the mountain.
Dio did change the logo on Dream Evil and looks more like devil upside-down.
Good info - thanks!
That is PT Barnum not A Crowley on M Jackson album cover. (edit) nevermind ......
5:29 What is that? That's not the real album cover.
It's the cover from the remix version that came out last year... Real, but the new version.
Michael Jackson cover is pt barnum
That would make the most sense.
Never understood the point of adding secret hidden messages on a record sleeve that are so secret and hidden nobody notices them unless they are off their faces on drugs! Oh hang on, that's how the artist was when they designed it......
The Hotel California. “Please bring me my wine.” Symbol of The Holy Spirit. He said”We haven’t had that spirit here since 1969.” The year that The Church of Satan was established. First order of business.... kick out The Holy Spirit. The one unforgivable sin.
Dio is Italian for god like dios is god Spanish.
Skynyrd’s plane ran out of gas…no fire
Would there have been a fire when it landed??? I have no idea, it's just the legend that seem to be reported al the time...
That is NOT the original album art for Holy Diver!
No, it's the recent remix. The logo is the same though (I think).
Yeah, I googled it after and figured it out. I was very confused at first.@@Channel33RPM
MJ :s album cover looks incredibly cheap and badly out dated, 90's at it's worst.
Such a Lovely place (Such a Lovely Face)
@DecriminializeM i think youve been using too much of 2nd part of your name description😮, like,those lyrics explain it all!!!!😮
@@dougreed2257 🫨🤛🏻 🖕🏻🫵🏻
Does not look like Crowley at all.
I agree.
Probably isn't Crowley but the cover does have the all seeing eye on it....
One of the Doors album Jim Morrison is leaning on a bust of Beethoven. In the Christian antirock video Hells Bells the presenter claimed it was Aleister Crowley.
Great video. But Aleister Crowleys last name is prounonuced like HOLY not CRAWLY. Yes OZZY misprounounced his name and for years i thought it was pronounced that way but its like CROW LEE . I know because i read all of his books, and he has stated in interviews "its pronounced like Holy" Which is a joke seeing as he was allegedly the wickedest man in the world.
Great video though mate.
