Great show. I was working in a record store during the Jacksons Victory record. Yeah, it sold millions. But they were presold to the stores. We literally couldn't give them away. The label would not accept returns.

I'd include: - Yes: Big Generator - Genesis: Invisible Touch - ELO: Balance of Power - Foreigner: Agent Provocateur - Ian Anderson: Walk Into the Light - Thomas Dolby: The Flat Earth - The Moody Blues: The Other Side of Life - Emerson, Lake & Powell: ST - Blondie: Eat to the Beat I know this is from 1979 but screams 1980s. If I gave it a brief glance, I would have thought of it as a cover of a synth pop band around 1983-'84. - Prince: Purple Rain - Too many album covers by hair metal bands, especially the band logos and of course the appearance of the band members themselves. - King Crimson: Beat - King Crimson: Three of a Perfect Pair I like the cover to Discipline (doesn't look one bit dated) but these two, not so much, both looks dated '80s. - David Bowie: Never Let Me Down - Joe Satriani: Surfing With the Alien - 3: To the Power of Three

Even Zappa couldn't escape the 80 s look with "Broadway the Hard Way" and " Man from Utopia". Obscure but SO 80 s: (Ornette Colman bassist( Jamaldeen Tacuma's " Show Stopper".
@ChromeDestiny 6 ай бұрын
I suspect the Broadway the Hard Way cover was a nod to Zappa's appearance on Miami Vice.

Starship - No Protection, the black and white shots on the back cover are better. They used those for the It's Not Over Till It's Over picture sleeve too. Jefferson Airplane - 1989 Self Titled, Grace Slick looks like Elaine from Seinfeld.

The covers (Skunk/4us) of the Dutch band Doe Maar. Man it was like they invented the color combination of pink and green. They were huge in The Netherland and their look/asthetic had a big impact over here in the early 80's. Not my cup of tea but pretty good reaggea ska punk pop.

Good one, Jame. That Kenny G album cover makes Billy Squier look masculine. The 80s album covers that come to mind now are: Most of INXS' covers before Listen Like Thieves Mr. Mister - Welcome to the Real World Most Duran Duran albums (Especially Rio) Wham - Fantastic, Make It Big, Music From the Edge of Heaven Journey - Escape Robert Plant's first three albums (Especially Shaken-n-Stirred) Def Leppard's first three albums (Especially All Through the Night) Outfield - Play Deep (I was thinking about that one too!) U2 - October

he's a legend, sure the record company pushed the ballads but he's made some quality records. he's ventured a little too far into current pop trends on some of his recent records but overall he's had a great career!!@@LarryFleetwood8675
