Oddball LP Art

(Thrift Store Sisyphus) A random collection of thrift store vinyl finds with cover art that I get a kick out of. Unless otherwise stated, all are LPs I actually own at the time of posting. (This means I generally don't repost stuff, sorry.)

Hollywood All-Star Rock n Roll Studio Orchestra "Rock 'n' Roll Hall Of Fame"

I see this is marked as "unofficial" on discogs, but I'm pretty sure this was a quasi-legit release-- low budget record labels were famous for hiring a bunch of studio guys to cover pop hits as close as possible, then release it as if you were getting a collection of the actual hit recordings. This is why labels like K-Tel or Sessions would advertise "Original Hits by the Original Artists." Pretty sure this came out years before the actual Rock And Roll Hall of Fame even existed, they just liked the name.
