Great ideas to use if die Fraulein and I finished our duets album.

I dunno if I shoulda looked at that

There's a couple in there that might give me nightmares.......the "I Want A Man" album is a for sure, the "Traveling Salesman" and "College Drinking Songs" covers might have damaged me some too. Where are the warning labels when you need them

Here's my vote for most notorious, even though it's little known.

WARNING: NOT WORK-SAFE: Jo Jo Gunne's Jumping The Gunne

For those in search of good bathroom reading, there's a book called "Horrifically Bad Album Covers" that I highly recommend, but for a great online experience, go here and view the galleries:

HAHA!! I remember that album cover! One of my friends older brother had it when I was a kid. Funny (but

) stuff!

I didn't have that Jo Jo Gunne album, but I did have the first and So...Where's the Show?. I also got to see the band live back in '72. They were great.

Hey...dig this. I was digging around, and Jo Jo Gunne has gotten back together, and have a new album out! Big Chain.

Gary, that website is way out of date. The Big Chain CD came out in 2005. AFAIK the reunion was just to make a new record.

Mark Andes lives in the Austin area and plays bass for Ian McLagan. I think Matt lives in Austin too.
