I think the contrast was set too low when it was printed.

I never knew my nephew worked with Black Sabbath.

So, with respect to Blind Faith... how is it that everybody involved, including us here looking at it, weren't thrown in the slammer?

Wikipedia has some interesting information regarding the album cover for "Born Again."

I've never listened to it, but with Ian Gillan singing, I suspect it's halfway decent. He's no Ozzy or Dio, but he's alright. I've read that the initial production was God-awful, but it was remastered not too long ago.

Ministry's "Dark Side of the Spoon" was banned from Kmart because of its cover art:

I saw Black Sabbath with Gillan as front man and it was weird Sabbath playing "Smoke on the Water" and Gillan singing "Iron Man"
Too bizarre for words..
They spent all this money on a Stonehenge stage set that was too big to fit any where they played on that tour ,what drugs and ego's can do for a band

Sounds like a scenario straight out of Spinal Tap...

Aw to be blessed with being a dumb assed redneck. I have no clue as to what you speak, but I do know about 45s, 78s and 33 1/3s.
Did you'll buy the album for the flappin cover?

If I bought an album now, it would solely be for the cover. Well, maybe I'll eventually get another turntable, because it'd be cool to listen to stuff from Miles on vinyl. But all my music is on CD or MP3 now. Album cover art is like fine art to me...and a lot of it is so cheap now.
