This is SO VERY disturbing........................ ;)

Hang on I'm confused.

Mark are you disturbed because Dave actually knows one of these artists music or because The Faith Tones are more scary than Freddie?        .......or just disturbed generally?  ;)

Those are girls...................... but yeah, if you look at them again they *could* be boys, their hair is really frightening - yes, I said that!


Let's just say the album's title has been said out loud by me under somewhat different circumstances  ;D

I googled them to look for any info on who they were, all I found were postings about the cover. The best comment: "Visual evidence that Tom Hanks, Eddie Izzard and Jay Leno were once a christian singing group known as the Faith Tones."  :mrgreen:

THAT is priceless!  :mrgreen:  (Although the middle one looks more like Dan Blocker, aka Hoss Cartwright, to me.)

On the right... Buddy Holly in drag...? either that , or Eric Morecambe, which will mean nothing to most non Brits...

Is Paul Hornung related to Uwe...?

I was thinking the middle one looked more Russian athlete - shot put type...?

There must be something about this hairstyle... check out this link...  :o  :o  :o

A stack of more dodgy covers are at the site I found this, also a Christian group...

One thing gents, this was the sixties... and we are poking fun at Mom, Apple Pie, and the American Way of life... someone out there may be smarting about their Mom or Gran...   :sad:
The random mind of a Silver Surfer...
If research was easy, it wouldn't need doing...
Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...

Kenny, this is horrific:



I think the one on the left was the inspiration for the zombie movies of the past couple of decades.

God made the river, God made the lakes
God made the beehive, but everyone makes mistakes
We've taken too much for granted ... and all the time it had grown ...
From techno seeds we first planted ... evolved a mind of its own ...
