Not as much a "bad cover", though a picture of a sickly-looking fawn is pretty confusing given the "content" of the record. Still, a bizarre idea for a record - doesn't really seem like it would be very much "fun".

Oh - I thought maybe you recognized that swimming pool. The photo is probably just a stock photo or postcard; I figured maybe Tahoe since that was a popular destination in those days and I believe it has large mountains all around it. I noticed that the photo is reversed - the little sign on the right side says "No Running", but it's backwards. Maybe it can help someone identify that mountain if they flip the photo.
I've been to Tahoe numerous times and I don't remember the mountains being that "peaky". The San Francisco Peaks by Flagstaff are old volcanoes. Therefore "peaky". Of course, I've been wrong a few times so far.

The photo and the layout/composition are cool, but the typography is pretty atrocious. The mixed typefaces are bad enough but the blue type on a mostly-blue background is awful. I don't know where that is either - there's a large mountain in the background though - maybe Lake Tahoe or someplace around there?

That's almost an awesome cover. Almost. Check out her right hand. That's some pre-photoshop wonderment right there.
I wonder where this is... I skipped forward a bit to a really bad sample. Not fun at all.
Speaking of not fun, I listened to this podcast the other day, telling the story of the Worst Song Ever Recorded, apparently a big hit in the early internet days.

What I could bear to listen to of it was pretty bad - yes, no fun at all - almost depressing actually. That other "song" had an interesting story - the podcaster is right about it being too long for one thing. It's pretty bad as well, but meant to be.

OH but there's a youtube of it.
