Photo of the Week

"I'm used to dark being a bit darker than this...." said "Epiclectic" when I posted this photo on Flickr. Indeed.

This is a record album cover I found in my mother's junk room when I visited the family seat. She has a whole magazine rack full of scratched-up old vinyl mood-music discs from the Mad Men era. It seems that compilation albums with provocative covers that had little or nothing to do with the instrumentals within were ubiquitous then -- music to put on the hi-fi while you sipped cocktails and puffed Newports. Classy! Freud would have had a field day with this one. She looks a bit butch, don't you think?

Click it and you'll be kissing close.
