I love this album cover because if I had not heard how terrible the music was already, the cover is a clear warning that this HAS to be a terrible album.

exactly! lol

I'm not going to attempt to defend the cover or most of the album but, darn it, "Talk Dirty To Me" was a great song in 1986 and it is still a great song in 2011:

Nothing like The Org faves

That Joyce album cover cracks me up every time I see it! Where's the album cover with the rapper is between some lady's legs?

Yes it is real I have this album on vinyl.

Back to the S__t! is a 1989 album by R&B singer Millie Jackson. Several years previous, Back to the S__t! had been the original title for what would become Jackson's 1986 An Imitation of Love album, and several tracks that originally appeared on that album (namely, its three singles) are also included on this one.

It is most notable for its cover, which features Jackson sitting on a toilet with a pair of panties down to her ankles, with an strained expression on her face. It has been marked as one of the worst album covers ever by numerous people, including The Guardian.^[1]

In addition to songs, there are also some spoken word tracks on the album.

It is occasionally listed under its uncensored name, Back to the Shit.

Track listing

All tracks composed by Millie Jackson; except where indicated

1. "Hot! Wild! Unrestricted! Crazy Love" (Jackson, Timmy Allen)
2. "Getting to Know Me"
3. "An Imitation of Love" (Jackson, Jonathan Butler, Jolyon Skinner)
4. "Love Stinks"
5. "Muffle That Fart"
6. "I'm Waiting Baby"
7. "Will You Love Me Tomorrow" (Carole King, Gerry Goffin)
8. "Investigative Reporting"
9. "Love is a Dangerous Game" (Billy Ocean, Jonathan Butler, Wayne Brathwaite, Jolyon Skinner)
10. "Sho Nuff Danjus"

If Poison was a Funk band It would be a different story.

He was a huge star in Germany . Pretty much everybody in Germany still knows his name I suppose . He owns a coffee house and buses of fans travel there and eat cakes and cholate named after him and buy Heino merchandising there .

This is a clip of a famous comedian dressed up as Heino at that coffee house with the Heino fans there and with Heino's wife (the blonde woman). Stefan Raab (the comedian) makes fun of them and makes them sing nasty English lyrics to Heino songs. As these fans don't speak English they happily join in singing with Raab .

Ah Bret Michaels when he wasn't wearing a bandanna. The cover wasn't that bad at the time. I nominate this.

Classic, but awful.

whenever i see this cover i have to wonder about why she's holding that shoe

is the squeezing it, like squeezing someone's hand, as in, it's a very hard stool to pass

or is she about to throw the shoe at the person taking the picture?

or is she intending to p/p in the shoe and/or whipe herself with it? there is a lot of paper

still left on the roll, so that would seem unlikely.

i also love the idea of an art director at this set [it's hilarious to even think about one in

this case, but heck] going "wait, wait, it needs something more....there....a nice little vase

of flowers on the right...that's it"

it's like she is so uncomfortable, a shoe had to come off.

I have Imitation Of Love on cassette, and hadn't really realized this.

That's those good restroom breaks, when shoes come off. I'm suprised her shirt ani't half way off.
