RECORD ALBUM COVERS

FLEA MARKET FINDS #79

At the thrift store the other day, I found this video game themed record album cover, Chart Action 83 from K-Tel Records! Isn't it rad?

Chart Action 83 Record Album Cover

I'm kind of a sucker for nifty album covers and I've made it a habit to buy 'em if they're cheap. I have a good stack that I need to scan and share, so here are some of my recent scans.

The Swingin Eye Record Album Cover
"Here's looking at you!"

The Limelight Strings The Sound of Jerome Kern Record Album Cover
"We're from the future and we're talking on these new groovy contraptions called cell phones!"

After A Hard Day - Music To Relax By Record Ablum Cover
"Hey gorgeous! Pull my finger."

Charlie My Boy Record Album Cover
Apparently chicks dig giant harmonicas. Who knew? I guess Charlie did, that's who!

Great Organ Hits Record Album Cover
Looks like Eddie is getting ready to blast off! 

Knights on Broadway Record Album Cover
For some reason, King Richard reminds me of a villain from the old Batman TV show. Like some diabolical evil doer who turns people into little dolls and controls him with his mind! 

Tennessee Ernie Ford Invites You To Come To The Fair Record Album Cover
Poor Tennessee Ernie Ford spent the day alone at the Indiana State Fair! Oh well, looks like he won a lot of stuffed animals, so that's good.
