An album cover collection exploring 70 years of surprising, shocking and frankly hilarious nude and provocative art. Sexy covers sold all musical genres, from funk to punk, and the silly German schlager. Comedy albums range from mid-century "stag party" pin-ups to the undeniably raunchy '70s sensation, Blowfly. Steamy, seamy and adults only.

About the Author
Dian Hanson is a senior editor and writer for TASCHEN, with over 50 books to her credit. In addition to ARNOLD, her recent works include The Art of Pin-up, Masterpieces of Fantasy Art, and The Fantastic Worlds of Frank Frazetta. Read here how it all began. Eric Godtland is a self-confessed compulsive collector. Working from his bases in the Haight-Ashbury and Potrero Hill districts of San Francisco, Eric obsesses over all things girly, Hawaiian, musical and modernist. When not lusting after "cool stuff," Eric manages musicians, bends technology to his will, writes, and begs for money.

Reviews
"I've collected sexy records since 1977. Most are small label, small production, local distribution releases from the 1960s through the '90s. In many cases I may have the only extant copy, or one of very few, in the world. Which is why I wanted this book to exist." * Collector/Author Eric Godtland *
