The Jeff Bridges official site (yes, THAT Jeff Bridges) has a collection of truly wretched album covers. He’s a particular fan of karate preachers, The Handless Organist (need a HEADLESS organist to create a matched set, really) and the I Love My Life guy, who oddly enough does not display this album cover on his own site. (Insert snarky observation here.) Too bad, as it’s a classic.
For those just tuning in, Jeff Bridges is not related to Todd Bridges of Diff’rent Strokes fame, but it would be pretty interesting if he was. Bridges has a singing career in the works and has appeared on more than a couple of stages and TV shows doing his brand of singer/songwriter strumming complete with backing band.
His official site is really interesting–it’s a lot more personal than your standard band page, owing mainly to the hand-drawn graphics and handwritten messages. That’s an awesome touch, and for some reason is a little reminiscent of Daniel Johnston. Don’t ask why, it’s just a first impression thing. And yes, it’s meant as a compliment.
