10 Greatest Album Covers (Part 4)

Continued from last post


9)T. Rex- Electric Warrior Look at those fucking amps. Tyranosaurus Rex translates roughly into "Tyrant Lizard King". They died out 65 million years ago and then came back in '71. Marc Bolan wrote the songs, and that's him with the guitar. He was 13 meters long and more than 7 meters high; weighing almost 7 tons, and with a lifespan of just 29. Here we see him in his natural habitat; 12 inch teeth set in a jaw that's about to open wide. Bang a gong and get it on; long live the king.


10)Live At The Apollo Volume 2- James Brown
Mr.Soul. Star time at the Apollo. There was a god who was named Apollo, and they built a theater after him. And James came and played there a lot, and held the mic like an ancient Greek when he did. Graceful, and wholly expert, the wise came to seek light from Apollo; and, whether in Greece or in Harlem, from the hardest working man in showbiz.
