cover connections 2008

The IR kind of looks like a phoetus to me... perhaps similarity would be more obvious if you mirror one of the images so they are looking the same way.

Ok here goes before you call me bollocks on this one:

Mmm this shizzle keeps eating the images I submitted. Oh well. I suppose it is kind of cheating to pick covers that are obviously TRYING to refer to prior covers. I think it's more interesting to find covers that look similar without any obvious parody/homage/reference value.

As for Sgt peppers hommages there's really just too much of them. Here's a page that does a comprehensive compilation:

Mmm I see they also cover hommages to Abbey Road and Elvis Presley's self-titled (most of them are in fact paroding London Calling though) in there.

Dammit, anybody else have a browser that's giving 'em troubles with ILM 4.0? Not displaying certain images at all (like ilxor's two directly above), replacing some apostrophes with "&and" or something similar, etc.
