Okay, I'm Back and Here are Some Missing Album Covers
So I'm back from our Christian Cruise. More on that later. Many observations about Christian Cruising to come. Meantime, stupid Typepad deleted two of my "time release" Disturbing Album Covers entries.
I'm not sure why, but my guess is "Slim Goodbody" was, in Typepad's view, over the line.
We begin our journey with Rick MicKnight, whose first single off this album was the joyous, yet haunting, "I'm a-Leapin' with My Bible While Simultaneously Proudly Staring Down with at Myself Using My Giant Disembodied Head in the Sky".
I kid you not, my dad has that "Free Indeed" by Rick McKnight. He pulled his record collection out the other day just to celebrate the joy that was those old records.
Just so you know though... he told me I could ebay them if I wanted to so this prize could be yours today.

does anyone else want to hear "I Seen Her First"?

WOW, how refreshing to see that even though you are a bigshot syndicated Christian Radio Program Dude you have not forgotten the little people who paved teh way for your career!
I will personally b etuning in to hear the cuts from "Chicken Coupe De Ville." It's times like this that make me proud to say "I am proud to be an American Christian Music Afficionado..."
So I am headed straight to Ebay next...

OK, I am close to wetting myself! Those album covers are too scary for words!

All of these covers have been hilarious. Where on earth did you find them?

After seeing these, I hesitate to go to Wal-Mart for fear of seeing some of these people--what a scary prospect!

This is why I don't go to the state fair.

Googled "Trapalhadas de Balbinos" hoping there was an explanation of the goatee. No luck.
But here's the translated synopsis:
"Catirina is pregnant and his desire to eat is the language of the ox. Matheus, her husband, solves the murder of the boss steer to meet the desire. The master the bull is dead and wants to know who is killed. Matheus confessed the crime and attempts to resurrect the bull calling a doctor and a vicar. After several attempts and trapalhadas, the bull life, raises and begins to dance happily. The story of bumba-my-ox, is known by thousands of people across the United States and our adaptation, the intention is to make children know better the history of the desire to Catirina of atrapalhado Matheus with their adventures and attempts desastradas to resurrect the bull manhoso the Captain and the bumba-my-own ox. "
I have many confused questions.

after seeing them all, it's hard to pick a clear cut favorite. The guy with the mullet is a clear candidate, but i think "the many facets of Roger" still is my favorite

I think Rick McKnight was not jumping... he was landing with his Bible, after being forcibly thrown off of public transportation. Or, maybe he just learned that he'd been chosen to be on "What Not to Wear"?
As far as that "Chicken Coupe de Ville" album... thank you for reminding me why concealed carry is a good thing. Can you imagine coming across someone like that on a lonely road, when you're not carrying a gun?

I like these, but i think "Little David" was the best. Unfortunately, we don't have any taverns around my town, so i have no way to judge whether he's the "king of the taverns."
Come to think of it...i don't even no where to find a tavern anymore...we are also missing a local "mercantile," "saloon," and "livery."

Chicken Coupe De Ville guy reminds me of a very young Travis Tritt, who admits to having been rather scary in his youth.
I can just hear some of those lyrics, Brant. "I seen her first and it scared me to death!" :>Oo

Without my glasses and seeing the blood red text in a creepy font, I thought at first that Ron Johnson's album title read "Helter Skelter" or "Redrum" or such.
Oops! It's "Happiness" - in a blood red creepy font. I still would not let him babysit my kids.
