    I agree, but then again, I like gaudy period. I can't use Christmas as an excuse for that.

    You're posting that as an example of the best Christmas covers, right? (And one of the best Christmas albums.)

    That one in the middle is particularly ugly! Terrible contrasting colors, and a boring, nondescript picture of him.

    The Kay Martin cover below your post is the one with ear muffs.

    Not posting this because I think it's awful, just because it's weird, so folks might appreciate it. The music on this one is pretty weird, too.

    (Personally I like weird, creepy, gaudy, campy, outsider, etc.)

    My guess? Real hat. Fake hair color.

    The Barbara cover looks like she's regenerating - Doctor Who style.

    Also, just happens to contain the worst music of the three. I would dare to say the boring and nondescript cover matches the contents well. [And, yes, I am a big fan of JB!]

    Great comp, though, and you have to admit the cover suits the material.

    I understand they baked the tapes for this one to make it "extra crispy"...

    That is a really ugly background/shirt color! Not very Christmasy at all!

    There's a stark contrast in this thread between covers that know they're ugly/gaudy/offensive and those that were done in complete earnestness, and were probably considered sophisticated at the time. Like that Tony Bennett cover.

    I've always disliked this Buffett cover because, although it's designed to look corny anyway, the look on Jimmy's face is like "I just farted" or something.
