Let It Bleed\u00a0– Rolling Stones<\/em><\/strong>\n\"\"<\/a>\nThe cover features a surreal sculpture by Robert Brownjohn. The image consists of the\u00a0Let It Bleed<\/em> record being played by the tone-arm of an antique phonograph and a record-changer spindle supporting several items stacked on a plate in place of a stack of records: a tape canister labeledStones – Let It Bleed<\/em>, a clock face, a pizza, a tire and a cake with elaborate icing topped by figures representing the band members. The cake portion of the stack was designed by cookery writer Delia Smith.\nNo Chocolate Cake- Gin Blossoms<\/em><\/strong>\n\"\"<\/a>\n\u201cNo Chocolate Cake\u201d is the Gin Blossoms fifth full length album and one of the best alternative albums of the last decade. I have nothing to say about this album artwork because it\u2019s pretty plain. Oh, except that it kinda reminds me of Bruce Springsteen’s Born in the USA.<\/a><\/em>\nAnd Someone Left the Cake Out in the Rain- Jimmy Webb<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/em>\n\"\"<\/a>\nThis 18-song compilation is an interesting mixture of some of the best-known — and a few of the least-favored — versions of\u00a0Jimmy Webb<\/a>‘s songs.\nRuining it for everybody- Iwrestledabearonce<\/em><\/strong>\n\"\"<\/a>\nFor the band, the album serves as the ultimate middle finger to expectations, conventions, and the norm. “We do whatever the fuck we want, and that normally ends up pissing people off,” he declares. “We like to take elements from every style and genre and ruin them for everybody.”\nSo I guess that\u2019s what their artwork is trying to say. Poor cake!\nHeartbeats and Cupcakes-\u00a0 Heartbeats Unlimited<\/em><\/strong>\n\"\"<\/a>\nHeartbeats Unlimited released their second mix which aims to raise funds for the AHA (one of the main\u00a0causes<\/strong><\/a> the Heartbeats crew supports) for your listening pleasure. The mix is free to download, but the girls ask that if you\u2019re diggin\u2019 the tunes, you make a\u00a0donation to the AHA<\/strong>.\nThis album artwork is very,very, very similar to Kanye West\u2019s Love Lockdown<\/em>. Only difference is this one\u2019s sweeter.\nWhipped Cream and Other Delights<\/em>– Herb Alpert<\/a><\/strong>\n\"\"<\/a>\n\u201cWhipped Cream and Other delights\u201d, released in April of 1965, features an album artwork that has a girl covered in whipped cream. There is a lot of food referred to in the song titles. There is mention of lemons, tangerines, peanuts, green peppers, lollipops, and honey. The art was parodied by several groups including Frivolous Five with Sour Cream and Other Delights<\/a><\/em> and the comedian Pat Cooper with his Spaghetti Sauce and Other Delights.<\/em>\nMysterious to Me- Fleetwood Mac<\/a><\/em><\/strong>\n\"\"<\/a>\nNot Fleetwood Mac\u2019s finest album artwork but it really does make us wonder why this ape is eating a book and a cake, and wait\u2026are those tears? Most of all, made me wonder what the guys behind this artwork were thinking at the time they were brainstorming. Hmmm\u2026\nHow We Divide the Cake- Charlie Khan<\/em><\/strong>\n\"\"<\/a>\n“How We Divide The Cake” is the first release from the “The Inimitable”\u00a0Charlie Khan, a wandering bug eyed pup who skirts around the edges of reasonably respectable society much the same way mad drunks hang around outside banks to pester their clientelle.\u00a0\u00a0A short noveletto about love, madness, promiscuity, deviancy, and the socio-political problems of latter day Victorian society, this 20 minute EP reveals a glimmer of Khan’s misanthropy and malicious glee.\nThe artwork doesn\u2019t match his upbeat songs but well\u2026\n____________________________________________________________________\nUnified Manufacturing<\/strong>\u00a0is an L.A. -based one-stop-shop that offers very affordable CD\/DVD\/USB replication, custom printing, promotional products, warehousing and fulfillment and many more.
