Another ugly cover
Posted by: arizojp ()
Date: June 1, 2007 20:30

One more time, a shitty cover for a Rolling Stones product.
Worse than Four Flicks, unbelievable...
After Flashpoint, Dirty Work, ER, BTB, Live Licks, Voodoo Lounge, Steel Wheesl, Sucking in the 70's and more.

Yes it's terrible to look at. Luckily there's 4 discs inside.

How can you, or Kent, like the 4flicks cover but not this one? They're absolutely the same....just BS made by computer, without any style

Christ, thats vile. What redeeming qualities can anyone seriously find in that?

Call me old fashioned, but rather than all this graphic wankery would it be to much to ask to have some kind of photo on the cover of...the band?

even four flicks wasn't as garish as this, infact i think 'garish' sums up stones covers of recent years/ not counting a bigger bang

c'mon this one, isn't that bad smiling smiley
B2b, Live Licks, Voodoo Lounge, ABB are horrible IMO.

Steel Wheels i love it, unluckily there's the cd inside.

Personally, I like the kinda blurry neon green of 4Flicks. Thought that was a hip cover. This one is just ridiculous.

i don't mind the 4 Flicks & Biggest Bang covers....but i agree that
No Security was the lamest......For all live projects (cds & dvds) I'd
prefer to see some sort of collage made up of "live in concert" images.
Not a big fan of their recent "posed" group shots...except for the
"Stripped" cover art. May Schillid could design something smiling smiley


IORR............but I like it!

There's only so many things you can do with the "tongue and lip design". Next time around, maybe they should give it some ice cream to lick.

Many of their covers are a bit...questionable.

Definitaly not my favourite Stones cover, but IMO it's nothing compared to those found in 'The Museum of Bad Cover Art': [www.zonicweb.net] or check 'The 100 Worst Album Covers Ever': [rateyourmusic.com]

I really like it.

How can you sell 36 year old trademark without
changing it from time to time?

It's a great cover. I think it's really well done.

Also, I enjoy the No Security cover. It's original and you know what it is when you see it. Good choice.

... ... well, the guy brought it in and said, 'look,, the stage is the

forehead' , , , and they bought it..... .. already seems very dated.

Why is Ya-Ya's on that list?

Re: Another ugly cover
Date: June 2, 2007 12:43

Does anyone else think they've come to rely a bit too heavily on the damn tongue? Listen, I love the logo, but it doesn't need to be plastered on top of EVERYTHING. (i think it's almost pitiful when mick wears a tongue shirt on stage; what is he trying to do, increase merchandise sales?)

Nope!!!...We ALL live off the tongue

I don't know, and I certainly don't know what makes Ya Ya's worse than the one that holds the 88th spot.

IMO Ya Ya's doesn't belong to that list at all

You're right of course Gazza. The trend has been for fancy graphics sad smiley

As a matter of fact there's not much of the band on the covers. I like that idea. Stripped and A Bigger Bang has been sufficient for me over the last 20 years. And after the Dirty Work cover, who can blame them for not showing themselves before Stripped?
