Mystery to Me considered among the "worst" album covers
|
It's a weird cover but I kinda like it.

I've always liked the cover for Mystery for Me.

LOL!!!!! I agree with this article 100%. I absolutely HATE the cover of 'Mystery to Me.' And ... (of course) ... I absolutely LOVE the album.
In fact, if one invented some weird mathematical scale for quality of the music vs. quality of the cover, 'MTM' would have the highest ratio of any record in my collection. |
I would imagine Heroes Are Hard To Find would be considered a worse cover, and I don't mind that one either.
But Mick and his daughter, both near naked. Kind of okay back then but wouldn't really fit in this modern day, PC world. |

As for the cover to Mystery To Me. The first time I saw it, (1989) this girl in my gym class had brought it to school to draw in art class. I thought it looked like some weird thing someone would see in a dream and then draw it when they awakened. I am glad for the cover though. If it had not been so different, that girl may have never brought it to school and I wouldn't have found out where she purchased it! :) |

About Mystery to me, I personally have always loved the cover and I thought it's so strange that you just have to like it somehow. It has this special something. But there are different opinions about everything. :shrug: |
I dunno....I'd name either Mr Wonderful or English Rose as worse than MTM. The 1988 Greatest Hits is pretty dull cover, too.
Mystery To Me is pretty iconic as an album cover, even it IS considered "one of the worst". I remember seeing Then Play On, Bare Trees and Mystery To Me covers everywhere. Aren't those three albums in the main character's collection in the movie Almost Famous? I definitely remember the Then Play On cover. |

I like it 'cause it shows what a crazy band they were in those days... |

The group photo on the back of Heros is great. But that front cover...ugh. |
I love English rose cover!
|
omg, the Aberfeldy cover. :laugh:
Not to say that I hate it, but the cover for Penguin always looked like a biker's jacket decal. Or something you'd find on the side of an arcade game. The Greatest Hits cover is stupid. |
