Amusing idea here:

http://www.yuppiepunk.org/2008/01/time-waster-albums-that-dont-exist.html

It suggests that by taking a random wikipedia article as the band name:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random

And the last four words of a random quote to make the album title, say the last quote on one of these pages:
http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3

and lay that text over the third "interesting " flickr pic...

...you can come up with an convincing album jacket. It took me three tries to get a record I'd actually pick up and say, "I wonder what this is?" though. How about you?

I'm still convinced that this lennon/wyatt album might be for real:
curious album John Lennon & Robert Wyatt - Applejuice

Ha, the album is called 'They Stared Life as Children', the picture is of a little girl but I forgot to save a link to it, and the name of the band is, er, The Dambusters.

That should be 'They Started Life as Children'.

Coming up with some great album titles: "Their Disease is Contagious", "People Who Acknowledge Us!" and, my favourite, "Achieved Without Significant Intelligence".

Oddly, the random Wiki article coincided with the picture I'd already chosen here...

purports to be a collab alb between "ronan keating sr" and horace silver, featuring such songs as blue monday, tears for fears, little drummer girl, west end girls, green day, i wanna now what love is and stravinsky in the year 2525 -- cosmic slop noticed it on spotify but it seems to register on most platforms and amazon
