The Monday Morning Warm-up

You've just arrived at work. It would not be fair to your employers if you were to make any serious decisions before your mental faculties have been brought up to full working speed via a light intellectual exercise such as this one. Here you will find ten fragments from memorable album covers. Can you name them?

Frank Zappa and the Mothers

Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention are no. 2, Interpol are no. 4, DJ Shadow's Endtroducing is no. 9 and those huge breasts belong to the Aphex Twin. Although seeing them first thing this morning and thinking of the beardy mug on top of them has rather put me off my coffee...

First post so be gentle...

1 is Lambchop,
5 is "poor man's Jimi" Kravitz and
8 is The Shins.
I think.

Number 7

...is XTC's "Go 2". And number 3 could well be Radiohead's "Hail To The Thief".

Number Seven looks like XTC

Number Seven looks like XTC to me

Since...

...no-one's added a title to it, The Shins' album is 'Chutes Too Narrow.' Also, is the Aphex Twin one the cover for the Windowlicker single and therefore not an album cover?

Pedantic eh?
