I think that the Prince album covers that feature his "picture" or "image" alone without anything going on in the background to give the album a theme are done too often. There's just no imagination in it! shake

It's like going to the store to pick up a generic carton of "milk." Sure, I know what's inside is what I want but,...where is the marketing stratedy?

Worst album art covers that come to mind:
For You
Prince
Parade
NPS
3121

On the other hand,...his best album covers with his picture:
Dirty Mind (had the steel mattress)
Controversy (had the newsheadlines)
Sign of the Times (the whole stage theme)
Intelligent people talk about ideas. -->Average people talk about things. --> Small people talk about other people.

Emancipation has by far the worst cover art he ever released.

The colours dont match, look ugly. The image in the booklet with all the rocks is just a pain in the eye. The computer generated images on other pages in the booklet are just plain ugly. The misusing of colours and images remind me a lot about the Oprah interview, here's a man who isnt sane, pathologic, mentally ill.... sorry to say

i guess some people are still uncomfortable about nudity. that, and they still really don't understand exactly why ol' boy posed nude for the cover. it wasn't for shock value or done on a whim, really. but yeah, i'm in the same boat as ya'll.


He's airbrushed within an inch of his life. And his legs and feet are freakishly short and smooth. Everything on that album cover screams feminine except for his moustache and chest hair. He looks like a naked tranny on that cover.

falloff You have a way with words.

But I think the feminine thing is exactly what Prince was going for.

well, that had nothing to do with prince anyway...but i managed to swipe a bunch of stickers for this CD from a wrecka stow, and you can cut all the individual pictures into tiny little squares that make for cute stickers. so there's that.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned the prince album:



The early pressings with the gold foil mark on the plastic jewel case on top of the booklet were OK, but the album cover image itself is awful -- out of focus, there appear to be ant-like creatures on the ground that may or may not be Prince, Mayte and a bunch of kids, and there's a soundstage set that looks like it might fall over if Prince so much as passed gas. Looks like a screen capture from the video for 7. And not a good one.
Check out The Mountains and the Sea, a Prince podcast by yours truly and my wife. More info at https://www.facebook.com/TMATSPodcast/

The Black Album

And I LIKE the Very Best of Prince Album cover! I love love love the long hair on him! For You rocked too! It was simple!
I love a Man who:
Wears More Make Up Than Me.
Wears Four Inch Stilleto Boots.
Changes His Name To An Unpronouncable Symbol.
Who Changes His Name Back From An Unpronouncable Symbol.
Oh And Most Importantly, Who Is Sexy Little Drop Of Butterscotch
