Actually, it's on one of the inside panels. Sorry.

― Johnny Fever (johnny fever), Friday, 3 June 2005 02:24 (twenty years ago)

Oh.

― Mr. Snrub (Mr. Snrub), Friday, 3 June 2005 02:26 (twenty years ago)

The woman inside the Exile In Guyville booklet is not Liz (the near-topless ones, anyway).

― nickn (nickn), Friday, 3 June 2005 02:29 (twenty years ago)

I always was fond of mostly-ignored Canadian band Sal's Birdland's "Nude Photos Inside", which had exactly that - except they were baby photos.

Never seen it, but I remember hearing that the French band Telephone had an album cover where they were all nude.

xpost And Perry's non-papier-maché Peeny Furrell is visible on the inside of Nothing's Shocking. Check the mirror he's holding in the head shot.

― Dr. Gene Scott (shinybeast), Friday, 3 June 2005 03:54 (twenty years ago)

The Turtles (as "Nature's Children," shielded only by leaves) in Battle of the Bands, which I think I have now referenced in an even dozen threads. John Barbata looked so good there I can't stand it.

What exactly made them think that was a good idea?

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Friday, 3 June 2005 04:10 (twenty years ago)

Way to ruin my dinner, Alex. BLEUCH!

At least only the flags are waving.

― Joseph McCombs (Joseph McCombs), Friday, 3 June 2005 04:18 (twenty years ago)

Oh yeah - the original cover of Three Dog Night's It's Not Easy album had the band all naked, parts strategically covered -- but their label made them replace it with something else.

And it just occurred to me why they would have done that pose for an album with that title, and I don't like it one bit.

― Joseph McCombs (Joseph McCombs), Friday, 3 June 2005 04:20 (twenty years ago)

On the inside of Nothing's Shocking by Jane's Addiction, if you look in the reflection of Perry's glasses, it's his naked body!!!

― Whiney G. Weingarten (whineyg), Friday, 3 June 2005 05:34 (twenty years ago)

Sort of a thing with the "primal" Creatures, wasn't it, though only Budgie appears nude on the "Bestiary" cover (that one could also go in an "artists who appear to be having sex in their cover art" thread).

Well, that is perhaps correct upon further inspection. Thank you for ruining my day. Does that woman have a band?

― John Justen (johnjusten), Friday, 3 June 2005 06:36 (twenty years ago)

Joni Mitchell is sitting naked on a rock facing the ocean inside For the Roses.

― Puddin' (Arthur), Friday, 3 June 2005 11:47 (twenty years ago)

PJ Harvey is topless (albeit wrapped in cellophane) on the inside of 4 Track Demos (or maybe it was Rid of Me.)

That's not Maynard, it's a roadie named Richard.

― Brad Laner (Brad Laner), Friday, 3 June 2005 18:35 (twenty years ago)

Pablo Cruise did it!

So did Judy Collins.

Oh. Thanks for clearing up that 12 year misconception, then.

Gah! That guy on the left looks like a skinny naked Michael Anthony!

Why is his nipple being indicated so strongly, by the way?

"Gaze deeply into the nipple...the nipple will help you through these troubled times..."

California Lightening (2/3 of Erase Errata) and Sic Alps on the cover of the "Four Virgins" split 7".

Judy Collins, on some album or other.

I can't remember if that first pansy division album was cropped right above the singer's bits or not. And I can't find it, must've lent it out long ago, drat!
