The Name That Album thread

There are hundreds of "Demonstration - Not for Resale" records from the campus radio station at our local GoodWill right now. I am sure that I could grab a handful of those and stump everybody but that wouldn't be fair (and it wouldn't be any fun either). I sure as heck haven't heard of any of them. There are some really bizarre looking jackets in the mix. I think that there is another thread somewhere about weird album artwork where they would be better suited.

You would be surprised at the knowledge around here. This is a great thread. I haven't known any of them yet, but I'm trying.
 
Okay, don't want to get too obscure but as was stated above, there's a lot of knowledgeable folks around here, how 'bout this (an inch cropped off the top where the band name was too much to airbrush):

 
Good job on Slint, fellas. Here's another "name that artist". This artist has several other album covers by the same illustrator. They are all pretty twisted. This particular cover is the tamest of the bunch. Hint-wise this artist is also known as a producer and for his association with a legendary and now less-than-youthful indie band.

Well, while post #65 continues to stump, let's continue with another album with fantastic and slightly disturbing artwork. (This artwork is by William Schaff. Check him out.)

#65 Bryan Adams would make sense, but it's not. I want to say Duran Duran for the hair, but it's not. Damn.

Here's a crude video I just shot of the unsolved album's most popular song and timeless classic. ;) Familiar to anyone, perhaps the mid 40-somethings?

Sounds awful - I have a lot to learn about posting audio to YouTube. You can hear my daughter objecting around the 1:50 mark. I'm sure you'll all object by then, too.
 
Nice hint. Maurice and the Cliches.

I have to eat dinner and will be watching the NCAAs, so I will post an LP tomorrow. In the meantime, play on...

I have a pretty good one but I can't post until I solve... and that probably won't happen. Sheesh... and my wife thinks I know a lot of trivia. I'll see if I can get her to read this thread.
