What album is it

[Crispion]

Hi,I,m trying to find an album from maybe the very late sixties or very early seventies, all I remember is a child sat on the front cover but with a mans head ,and I think he might have had long hair, i,m hoping one of you vinyl nuts can help

Genre? By any chance is the child wearing any clothes? If not I think it's a led zepellin album but I can't remember which one.

I don't know, but I think Jim W probably will, so hopefully he'll see this.

You're probably thinking of 'Houses Of The Holy'. From the description, I don't think it's that.

Oddly enough that name just popped into my head but that's lots of children isn't it? Or maybe I'm thinking of another dodgy 70s cover?

Yeah, children or more likely some kind of nymphs on rocks.

Anyway, I reckon Jim will know.

No,it's definitely not Zeppelin, this is just the one figure on the front, I thought it was zoot money, but I've tried their back catalogue with no luck

 

[Jim-W]

Any further details? Genre? Country? The ony one I can think of has several children, but they are sitting down with adults and it's Blood, Sweat and Tears, 'Child Is Father To The Man'. Take a look and see if this it. I'll kep thinking in the meantime.

 

[jjbomber]

is my guess

This could be a good idea for a thread. Guess the album name from an obscure description of the cover. Something you could never do with an mp3.

Now where's my coat.

My first (and only, admittedly) thought was Blind Faith's one album. I'd embed a picture but it has courted controversy.

Oh yeah, that's the one I was thinking of, it's not a man's head on the body though.

 

[John Duncan]

No it's not, but if you squint (or, say, have no memory of what the album is) perhaps one might mistakenly think it so.

 

[Freddy58]

I wonder if 'they' would allow that cover today? I doubt it...

So you're talking about squinting whilst looking at a picture of a topless 11 year old girl? *shok* *lol*

I think it's beyond doubt, Freddy and I don't know how they got away with it then. It's a damn fine record and deserved a better cover in my opinion.

Blimey, I just checked and apparently she was only 11! I'd always assumed she was much older, but just looked young. What on earth were they thinking of?!

 

[dim_span]

most prob not this one, but it's the only similar one that I can think of

 

[Crispion]

If I remember it looked like it was a child about three sat having is photo took ,but it had a mans head with longish slightly curly hair ,

 

[dim_span]

it's not this one is it?

 

[thescarletpronster]

Was it Kate Bush's The Child With The Man In His Eyes?

 

[BIGBERNARDBRESSLAW]

If I remember it looked like it was a child about three sat having is photo took ,but it had a mans head with longish slightly curly hair ,

And when did you have this dream?

Blimey, I always found the cover of that Blind Faith album dead creepy, and now I know why.
