Some albums beg to be listened to - if you'd never heard Ziggy Stardust the combination of that name and the fabulously booted and cat-suited DB on the cover would get your ears twitching, turn it over and the titles...Moonage Daydream, Suffragette City, Rock and Roll Suicide...who could pass this by.

But what about those albums where everything you read and see before putting it on should send you running a mile....recently I've been listing to a couple of albums that should be so wrong. First up Jehovahkill by Julian Cope. The name, the song titles, (No Hard Shoulder To Cry On, Necropolis, the fact that The Tower is 13 mins long), then go inside and we've got essays about ancient Serpent Mounds and some of Mr Cope's poems...

So, imagine my surprise, not having listened to it in ten years ,when it turns out to be a corker. Poppy, melodic, rocky in the right places...okay the lyrics are still a bit challenging but I could honestly recommend it.

Second up, dredged from the DJ mixes a bog-standard mid-90s double Farley and Heller mix, Anthology. Silver box, no info, the very phrase 'Double CD compilation mixed by Farley and Heller' Again, a completely listenable funky, soulful house mix that had the family bopping around the kitchen.

So what is the all-time worst mismatch between the cover and the contents? What has to get past its own artwork to work?
