Worst classical music album covers… ever?

After my plea for covers to help Gramophone Magazine’s quest, I was pleased to receive lots of suggestions, some of which were a little off-theme but funny nevertheless. Those I haven’t included….

So here are the best of the worst so far. Some are simply kitsch (the Westminster covers are quite witty if you look at them through period specs), some are bizarre, and some just boring.

Writer, director and photographer in Milan, blogging (under the name 'Gramilano') about dance, opera, music and photography for people who are a bit like me and like some of the things I like.

I was a regular columnist for Opera Now magazine and wrote for the BBC until transferring to Italy. My scribblings have appeared in various publications from Woman's Weekly to Gay Times. I write the 'Danza in Italia' column for Dancing Times.

You can find me on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and Google+, or follow my Facebook page.
