10 Worst Album Covers In Rock

It's not exactly that hard to really screw up a Crosby, Stills, and Nash cover. Since day one, these old folkies have pretty much made a set system to their album art, which is more often than not something rustic, outdoorsy and reminiscent of the old days hiding out in nature. Why anyone would want to take them off of the Earth though is beyond the traditional comprehension.

Make no mistake, album covers coming from space are pretty cool, given that Journey has made a career out of the same kind of album art. However, using this for what amounts to a pretty drab rock record doesn't really have the same impression on the listener. The showstealer though has to be the hot dogs, which add another ultra level of weird to the scenario, as if the graphic designers were taking almost any suggestion that popped into their head.

Then again, this kind of thing could have worked if it were a different artist at the helm. I mean, this kind of thing works terribly next to folk rock, but when put next to, say, a Frank Zappa album, it would work wonders. As it stands though, it's just kind of there, and there's a good chance that Crosby, Stills, and Nash have already since forgot about it. While drugs may have ran rampant during the band's '70s run, you'd have to be on some potent stuff to give this the green light.
