Beautiful Vintage Vinyl Album Covers: Dr. Hook and Smokey Robinson and Brigitte Nielsen and Barry White

Got a record player for Christmas, going to enjoy the hunt for 99-cent vinyl where mucho gems can be had, because even when the tuneskies are so-so the art always makes it worthwhile. Here are two I came across in the amazing Amoeba record store in the Haight in 'Frisco last month. Kicking myself for not copping them.

The album title is a sly allusion to the fact that this photo was taken moments after the band finished fucking the same chick followed by them laughing in her face. Do yourself a favor and peep one of their vids, mad dumb awesome beards all over the place.
