31 WEIRD ALBUM COVERS FROM FLORIDA THRIFT/RECORD STORES!

Rate: 9 Flag
A treasure trove of excellence I have found while vacationing here in Florida! We've had lots of fun hitting up several Fort Lauderdale and Miami area thrift and record resale shops all kinds of 'hoods and I am again delighted to share these INTERESTING old LP covers with you. Let's go!

Feliz Navidad, y'all! Translation: "Come To My House This Christmas." I WONDER WHAT FOR?






























The King Sisters enjoy wrapping their hair like holiday breads.





























I think Leonardo here looks like he's going to audition for Vampire Weekend.





























I don't know what this says, but I believe it is all about a beast made of ground sirloin, Hershey's Syrup, and Cheerios.





























How about "We learn about birth control in Grandpa's nightstand drawer?"




























Seriously, I'm totally not going up against the Barry Sisters. No way. They'd totally zombie-face a guy.





























If you need to know just how to have a GOOD DAMN TIME, any one of these will set you on the right path!
































I think that's Marv Albert on the right. I really want to hear what "featuring Worthy the Lamb" is all about.




























NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO and NO.





























NO AGAIN. NO.




























AAAHHH! MORE HUMBARD FAMILY KIDS!!! AAAHH!!




























What are Juan and Junior looking at? Why are they both wearing red socks? Aren't they at ALL concerned that they are both going to flip backwards off those flimsy chairs? The world will never know.





























And now...the Ladies!

































"Keep Your Mighty Hand On Me," uh huh huh huh huh.





























I know what the kids are thinking: "WENDELL LOVELESS MAKES BIBLICAL HISTORY ROCK!"





























ALL. TEMPOS!






























And now...the MEN!

































I know I often think "romantic" when I hear "Swedish Rhapsody" and "Music Box Tango."





























Oh, Jackie...don't you know martinis totally mess up memories? I smell roofies here.





























GLAD YOU DIDN'T RUN OUT OF BLUE DRESSES AND BLACK SUITS.

These are hilarious. We just got back from a 2 week road trip and had some fun in used record stores. Scored a nice vintage Lou Reed, but this collection is highly entertaining and a wee bit disturbing.
I could ask for nothing more!! xo
All I could think about is that these people entertained our parents. How the hell did they make time to conceive me with all this????
I've got some weird album covers I've collected over the years...I'll have to post them some day. My favorites are the polka bands...
woooh. That's a lot of kitsch. Lovin the blue dresses and the bread weave hair.
"I think Leonardo here looks like he's going to audition for Vampire Weekend."
LOL Either that, or he's packing some serious heat in those tight white jeans of his!
What a fun look back at kitsch from the 50's, 60's and 70's. Love it!
One thing, tho'...that family nudity stuff would definitely come under the heading of child abuse today, would it not?

@Poor Woman: Might not be illegal, but definitely a BAD idea. @Frank: post up the polkas!
Given the number of religion-based albums, I think a couple of PhD dissertations could be written on the psychosexual bases of religious entertainment.
I think we may have that Jackie Gleason record, and I'm willing to be that my brother-in-law has more than a few of the others. His collection is staggering.

Thanks for sharing!
You should raid and post 'em up, Jeanette!
Israelians? Some party here.
