This would be better with pictures, but I'm at work and not that much of slacker to spend the time digging up the links.

I'm planning to devote a whole wall of a room to framed albums when I move. My criteria for choosing 'em is kick ass album (listmania quality) with a cool cover I won't get sick of looking at and not be a super rarity that i'll cost me an arm & a leg. And in the end I want the collection to reflect the overall variety in my taste.

I have:

Gang of 4 - Entertainment
VU - VU & Nico
Sex Pistols - Never Mind...
The Clash - S/T
English Beat - I Just Can't Stop It
Bob Marley - Survival
Caetano Veloso - S/T 1970
Curtis Mayfield - Superfly
David Bowie - Ziggy
Salif Keita - Soro
Ramones - Rocket to Russia
Smiths - Hatful of Hollow
Gram Parsons - GP

Am looking for/considering:

Gil Scott Heron - Pieces of a Man
Eugene McDaniels - Headless Heroes...
Donny Hathaway - Everything is Everything
Eddie Gale - Ghetto Music (might cost too much though)
The Harder They Come OST
Zombies - Odyssey & Oracle
Joy Division - Unknown Pleasures
Love - Forever Changes
Archie Shepp - Attica Blues
Augustus Pablo - East of the River Nile
Funkadelic - Cosmic Slop or Maggot Brain
Fela Kuti (undecided which)

Recommend more

np: Rico "Trombone Man"

From a quick skim of what I have that I would enjoy:
Neil Young :: Harvest
Al Green :: Call Me
T. Rex :: Electric Warrior
Curtis Mayfield :: Curtis (Though you already have Superfly)

Also, everything by the Ohio Players.

We had a framed one of this with a weed leaf (dried) in the bottom right corner.

I really have been meaning to do this for a long time.


Off the top of my head, there's this one that I really want to have for framing:

Does anyone know if he has a collection of his photographs for sale???


edit: Yeah, The Afghan Whigs have some great album covers...
