  • Best car album covers

    Having found my late Fathers stash of old album I went to a local fye and bought some frames for hanging them on the wall. I have hung up ZZ top Eliminator, and Beach Boys Little Duece coupe. What other albums have bad ass car art work.

              I don't have any, but here's one I know of



              He's got a lot of cool personal vehicles too, one being a Hennessy Viper, and supposedly tours with 3 or 4 Vipers. I looked for the Vipers when I saw him in concert, but they must have been in an enclosed trailer if he had them.

                I have always been partial to this album cover:

                It's really no different than trying to glue them back on after she has her way.

                    If you have never seen the LP for the AG sound track it is cool, it folds out and the whole car hop is visible and in the inside jacket there is shots of the movie...

                      To me the most iconic is the Beach Boy's Little Deuce Coupe. The first band I was in learned pretty much every song on the album just by listening to it. My Mom must have hated that album as I listened to it over and over picking out my drum parts.

                      I also had a "Sound of the Drags" LP with a front engined digger on the cover (I forget who's car). I loved that but I was banned from playing it when my folks were home. Pretty sure that was the origin of the Lefty Muttersbach cut that was on "Livin' in the USA".
