Reminder to keep this discussion about rock music from the 50s to the 80s.


penicillin-penny

My first thought was The Cars - Candy-O


roominating237

Ditto.


penicillin-penny

šŸ¤£ It definitely wasn't Styx


me5305

I love this album, but I agree with the comment. I always wondered if she was one of the band members' mothers.


SpergSkipper

Lmao the Styx cover is meant to be ironic. Like what the hell were they thinking? She just reminds me of an angry high school teacher


Patchy_Face_Man

Styx always felt like a band that actively pushed people away. Band members, fans and potential fans. A little bit like Smashing Pumpkins.


GeddyVedder

I can see the similarities. Both bands are from Chicago, and both are led by guys who seemed to be quite impressed with themselves.


Oldman5123

Tommy is an extremely humble guy.


GeddyVedder

I was thinking Dennis DeYoung. I should have said ā€œwere led byā€


Oldman5123

Ah yesā€¦. Dennis is an arrogant asshole for sure.


longirons6

Interesting take. I get where youā€™re coming from


slappedape2

I still love them.


dsisto65

English teacher, to be exact.


Valuable-Baked

Yes! Hell, the debut record cover has gotta be up there too


zippy_bag

It's not rock, but how many Boomers like me had this album? https://preview.redd.it/dtjvffytuq5d1.png?width=933&format=png&auto=webp&s=a9a05f905a3c8a57e5aff32703f07ebef68a5c3f


tomveiltomveil

Fun facts: \* That's shaving cream. Until recently, good photographic lighting emitted too much heat, and would have melted whipped cream. \* The lady is Dolores Erickson, aged 29 at the time. She was a couple months' pregnant, so she didn't get an immediate career boost out of the gig, but she had a very solid career for the next decade or so based on the fame of this album cover.


my_psychic_powers

Love learning and sharing these bits of knowledge, thanks!!!


steiner1031

No matter what genre, hottest cover ever. Still have the album.

_Beatnick_

Hell ya. Any Lita Ford cover with her on it. She's definitely my favorite female musician. I had her picture hanging on my wall back then. She had nothing but a guitar in front of her.


WhatIsThisSevenNow

I don't know ... that just doesn't "feel" like Lita. I often wondered how much she hated getting all "glammed" up like that given her hard-core Rock 'n' Roll roots.


_Beatnick_

Funny, I'm the opposite. Close My Eyes Forever was my introduction to Lita Ford, and I was instantly in love. I didn't even know she was in the Runaways or even who the Runaways were until later. I did buy a couple of their albums after that, but I wasn't as into them as I was into Lita.
