Deface The Music - do you qualify to compete in the hardest rock trivia quiz of them all?
Posted by David Hepworth on 30 March 2009 - 1:35pm.
Welcome back my friends to the un-Googleable quiz that never ends. We've taken well-known (and some hilariously obscure) album sleeves and obliterated the marks of their branding. Can you recognise them? Among the comments below you'll see some of the people who have triumphed so far. If you reckon you can compete with the elite have a look at these and then try your luck below.

I'm winning
First one took three minutes to identify. Second one was seven.
Um...
...what would count as 'us' winning? Any chance of some rules definition? Just, y'know, asking (he said casually, pretending his snarling, saliva-flecked, testosterone-fueled competitive streak wasn't straining its leash to breaking point).

that the cover of this and Reload (damned for being crap in the last ish) actually show a photograph of mixed blood and semen sandwiched between glass, not paintings.

If I recall correctly
Did the bodily fluids in question not belong to the guitarist- Kirk Hammett?
Edit: Just checked: they actually belonged to the artist, Andres Serrano.

Now I'm getting cross

This is a great game. Can't you put something by the Jim Carroll Band so I can get it? Ta.
Waiting
For one that I know...
Think I'll take some time off
Don't think anyone's going to be bothering me for a while.

My turn
Giving Heppo a break for a moment, this was my album of the year in 1987. Anyone recognize it?
Oooh, oooh, pick me!
Is it The Jim Carroll Band?
It's gone quiet in here

Church bell in the distance....

This one is hard
I'm locking up. Hopefully someone downunder or across the pond will put us out of our misery come morning.
From across the pond...
It's Bumper Crop by the Volcano Suns. Never heard it.
Yay!
We have a winner! Can I ask how you knew?
Anyone else got a mutilated sleeve they'd like to tease the massive with?
Volcano Suns
1987 was one year of many that found me working in a record shop, and Bumper Crop was a pick-to-click amongst our more discerning clientele that year. Seeing as how it was your album-of-the-year as well, perhaps I should give it a spin one of these days!
1987
I was working in a record shop too. I still like Bumper Crop, but it hasn't aged all that well.
UTS
Unknown to Spotify. Has anything more damning ever been said?
Don't get me wrong
I love Spotify. But it would be a hell of a lot better if it was as all-encompassing as they say it is. I mean, I wouldn't have thought Joe Henry's last album was exactly plumbing the depths of obscurity.
Another day...

Jane Birkin Arabesque
Jane Birkin
Arabesque
You see, now I'm really annoyed
I saw the image and thought 'That's Jane Birkin'. So I had a little browse, couldn't find anything, and got called away to do some work. When I get back, I find I was right. I'm going to get one eventually...
I don't know if I have a browser problem
But all I get is the word image. Are we supposed to telepathically decide what is in Mr H's head? Or does randomly typing the most obscure album that comes into your head win?
That's what happens when you get "called away to do some work"
Gotcha!
Curved Air - Live.
Took long enough
Looks like I've won
Is there a prize, Fraser?
The Jags - Evening Standards
It ain't over yet
Bugger
The Jags entered my head but I don't remember the lead singer looking like that. Should have researched better. Instead I was looking at Department S record covers.
I'm going to lunch...leave you with this
Haven't a clue
But I have learned that Diana Ross (okay, now I look it looks nothing like her) has had some AWFUl album covers. Really, really bad.
I can't recognise her either.
I've no idea who the woman on the front cover is either.
Of course it's possible that she's not the artist on the album anyway; I've got several jazz albums which feature a similar sultry shot of a woman on the front cover instead of the act themselves, and this could be the same here.
Bah humbug
I've been playing since the beginning in a "I don't know that one! Maybe I'll know the next one. Nope, not a clue" sort of way.
Am desperate to get one right!!! I'm beginning to feel musically inferior...
You could be making the elementary mistake...
...of thinking the person on the cover is the artist.
But I work at an elementary level
Can't you put a Queen cover up? I'd know that.
Method
Tried the "oh, oh, its Toni Braxton - go to Amazon - Oh, no it's not" method. It's not Toni or Phoebe Snow. Now bored.
You're right about methodology
trudged through lots of Crown Heights Affair and similar on Amazon in hope of striking gold, but no.
Also stumped.
and been reminded of a few
and been reminded of a few gruesome Millie Jackson album covers. *shudder*
Upside
On the upside, I have found some software to deal with my missing album art in iTunes so DH gets a gold star or something
What's the software?
I'm tired of grainy shots culled from google image searches.

Ohio Players?
Although most of theirs featured rather more torso than that. Come on, am I warm?
I was convinced it must be them too
.. but I could find no evidence to back it up
That's who I was thinking of
Not them? And what is this talk of sequels?
*racks brain*
I tried
Linda Lewis, to no avail.
It came out in the 70s
It sold more than most of the records whose sleeves have been identified here. So many, in fact, that it had a sequel.
Tubular Bells?
Alternative edition?
The Loaf
Is it the inside cover of Bat Out of Hell then?
That's never
Led Zep 2 is it?
I'm retiring....
...undefeated.
Retiring
to bed? Or to the knacker's yard?
I Think it's a
a compilation.
Haven't a bloody clue...
... but isn't it interesting that there is no capability to search the web by picture.
Only a matter of time I suppose.
Taps nose......
....keep it to yourself, but there is. I suspect it may have been used by cads in the know to identify some of the other photos. However, it draws a blank on this one. I reckon Hepworth must have mocked this one up himself!
"I reckon Hepworth must have mocked this one up himself!"
I don't think so, it looks nothing like him.
Looking at the flimsiness of the glossy paper (you can see the indentations around the middle of the record), I think this is an inner sleeve. No-one said anything about inner sleeves.
Millie Jackson
The "big seller & there was a follow-up" clue just won't let me get past the possibility it's one of hers.
There was one called "Caught Up" and a later one "Still
Caught Up."
I therefore nominate the former and demand a paper hat or chocolate watch if correct.
As I have already said above...
...the person on the cover is not the artist.
Hmm...
It's probably by one of those bandleaders who released oodles of albums back in the 1970s - James Last, Ray Coniff, etc.
Bit rubbish, me
Do I get points for knowing it's not The Jim Carroll Band?
If it had a sequel
Could it be something like "This Is Soul"
I've got it!
It's Sex And Soul by Roy C.
So sad am I that I've been out trawling the 2nd-hand record shops of Berwick St.
Do I get a prize?
Result!
Were you looking through the racks, or going to the counter, picture of sleeve in hand?
Through the racks…
… the other way would have felt like cheating.
BTW, it's in Music & Video Exchange if anyone needs a copy.
Well Done Sir!
Oh well done sir
Bravo
And now we begin again
Is it...
'The Five Foals of Sidney Stallion' by Rick Wakeman?
I know this one!
It's the poster my friend Lee had on the wall of his flat in 1993.
An hour has gone....
...so to prevent this one dragging on till tomorrow, I will expose the identity of this as being the eponymous album by Stud, who were the early seventies leftovers from Rory Gallagher's Taste.
I claim no points for this one as I used "dark arts".
And what are you going to do with this one?
Wow!
... a sleeve that comes with a free record inside. A great idea for shifting more units of empty cardboard sleeves.
Too easy…

The Saturdays - Chasing Lights
Finally I know one
and it's pop piddle. dammit.
I'm glad someone
else answered that one
I've got work to do, you know
I've seen this one somewhere.
It's an early release on either Harvest or Vertigo or a similar label. One of those obscure albums that's worth a bit of cash purely because it was issued on such a label, and not necessarily due to the actual content.
I've no idea as to who it's by - probably something self titled.

Ian Dury and the Blockheads'
Ian Dury and the Blockheads' Do it Yourself had many different 'wallpaper' sleeves when it came out. Is it one of those?
Use of the dark arts.....
....has found a possible solution. Or at least it has found the identical pattern but in slightly different colours. I guess two different groups could have used the same design or alternatively Fraser's picture could be of the back cover or an inner sleeve.
Anyway, having cheated, I won't give the answer, but I will give a clue for those still hunting. If it is the same album I have found, we are talking sixties prog.
dark arts
what is this 'dark arts' of which you speak?
Eye of newt....
...toe of frog, wool of bat, tongue of frog....and image searching software!
...and
do you recommend a particular program?
Is it...
"Fully Interlocking" by The Web?
Bingo!

If anyone gets this, we know they're either a) cheating, or b) extremely well-travelled.
Fat Freddy's Drop?
??
Nope
They're not a kiwi band.
Give us a clue Fraser,
is the green, yellow and red background a reference to a flag (Mali? Senegal?) or is it a reference to the music they play?
It's
The music.
Hmmmmm
so we're looking for a North Korean or Turkmenistan reggae band with no members actually from North Korea or Turkmenistan?
Lets put this one out of its misery
As someone who is both:
a) extremely well travelled
and b) a cheat
I can confidently state that there ain't no reggae like Chilean reggae!
Sir,
I admire your cheating. Gondwana's second album Alabanza (Por la Fuerza de la Razón) is actually a very good record, possibly the best roots album to not come from the UK or Jamaica. And they're huge down Santiago way.
Inner Circle?
(Erm, geddit?)
Here's my obscure offering...
Cressida
Next!
Cressida
Jesus that’s just showing off! It took me 20 minutes on the net to find the band let alone confirm the album cover was their second "adventurous" offering on Vertigo called "Asylum". Sounds hideous to be fair.
Actually,
it's pretty damn good.
I saw it recently...
...on our Album Cover Atlas.
Bugger.
It was me what put it there.
Arguably
this is the best series that Mr Hepworth has initiated since the Randomiser - and somehwhat more difficult to cheat on. Bravo, Sir.
Am I allowed to submit one?
If anyone gets this I'll be very impressed...
Paul Barrere
On My Own Two Feet!
I am...
seriously impressed!
Paul Barrere - On My Own Two Feet
You'd think with his pedigree, it'd be a decent album (it isn't - it's rubbish).
My turn...
Criminally overlooked second solo album from gravelly voiced American R 'n' B-ish singer, released on major label in 1980. 1st 3 tracks on side 1 are simply perfect imho. Never issued on CD. Probably sold all of 3 copies on vinyl. 1 of which went to me.

Is it only me that knows of (and loves) this record?
Oh, is no-one going to have a go? He went on to become the lead singer of 38 Special and - gosh - Tower Of Power.
Erm..
Max Carl - "Max"?
Close enough!
Max Gronenthal, as he was known then. The record was credited to simply, "Max". In later years he became known as Max Carl Gronenthal, then simply Max Carl.

String Driven Thing. I only remember this from seeing a copy on the wall of a second hand shop I used to frequent some years ago, never to be sold.
One for the 70s Soul Boys
Perhaps the best dance album ever made hiding inside the worst sleeve design of all. A mid-70s compilation on Atlantic records.
Remixed by Tom Moulton, this record sounded like a nightclub sound system. The last in a series of four. Quite collectible nowadays.
Various Artists
"Emperor Rosko - So Ya Wanna Hear Another?"
Take a chance on romance, ask that lady to dance!
Rosko does his thing, presenting a bogus radio show complete with fab jingles and corny rhymes between The Tramps, Darrel Banks, Wilson Picket et al. And, er...Hall & Oates!
Be grateful that the album budget was spent on the fabulous remixing and (specially created) jingles package, rather than the sleeve design.
DJs the world over, listen to this album. And weep. This is how it's done.
