In the equally silly tradition of this thread ( Band art/logos/insignia that would be worthy of having as tattoos. ), please cite the album covers that you'd gladly sport in painstaking acryllic detail on the back of your suitably scruffed up denim jacket as was "the style" back in the day?

I'd go with....

I had the Master Of Puppets cover on the back of my 80s metal denim jacket(TM). Surrounded by smaller Venom, Megadeth, Kreator and Slayer patches. A shame I lost it somewhere along the line...

NONE! Painting jackets is almost as bad as concert t-shirts with band names on the front.
Highly naff. Big no-no.

eek!

I'd do the "Apocalypse Dudes" by Turbonegro album cover. Could one of you computer savy folks post that up for the peoples to see? It has a multi-headed snake on it (Swee!).

― Helltime Producto (Pavlik), Tuesday, 15 April 2003 22:02 (twenty-two years ago)

this would be tempting...

but kind of dangerous. So I'd probably go for this.

My mom, when she was the skinniest person alive, had a pair of hotpants that she embroidered the title art for Elton John's Madman Across the Water album on the ass. It was the greatest thing I ever saw. She also did a jacket too, with the artwork for Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. She liked Elton John, she wrote her senior year paper on Elton John. I don't know what grade she got, but I'm sure the paper involved her asspants and her jacket.
