Whipped Cream... spawned numerous parodies. Here are two I've actually seen in the... umm... cream. :)

... and (if I may)... the Romantic Warrior cover puts me to mind of a little story.
When I was in college, I saw an ad in National Lampoon for an album with cover art that I thought was just too, too cool.
I mentioned this to a friend who actually went out and bought the album -- on the strength of the cover art.
Now, mind you, in those days we were rather smitten with (British) prog rock and this looked... of that ilk.
Well, my friend put it on the old tt -- and we listened...
and...
it might not have been the worst album I've ever heard -- but it was certainly on the spectrum. :rolleyes:
My apologies to any fans (I know this group & album are held in some regard in certain circles). De gustibus non est disputandum, you know? :)

speaking of the Fab Four -- one's got to give "them" (the four moptops and the halo of creative and marketing talent that surrounded them) credit for both their sense of design and of humor, going from:

(already mentioned in this thread, of course, and rightly so)

to:

They had a sense of humor when it came to the maelstrom of hysteria that enveloped them :)

The paper record cover is circular, but there is a square plastic bag to keep the record from rolling about. Whimsical cover and music. I still have mine.
