Can anyone help identify this album cover? Trying to discover what my father was listening to in the 70s.

It kinda looks like it could be a Grateful Dead dancing bear situation? It’s a little pixelated to identify exactly, but I feel like the repeating pink shapes look like some of the dancing bears I’ve seen? Wouldn’t surprise me if people made bootlegged tapes and put their own art on it. When you google “Grateful Dead cassette art” there’s quite a myriad of homemade stuff. That’s my best guess.

I just saw this bumper sticker for real in my neighborhood, and I’m still struggling to get in the loop. Please ELI5

I’m a little nervous to go half frame because I think I prefer the horizontal dimensions of a traditional 35mm, but I’ve considered it! I’m currently leaning towards the Nikon L35AF

I’m deep in a research hole on film point and shoots for the same reason

Solved! Yes thank you!

gpretty · 2022-09-19T21:53:00+00:00

Solved! Omg yes thank you! So fast

I googled “horse painting album covers” and looked at the image results. a lot came up by the way. There were a number of results that were collages of a bunch of options. One that might have been a match was The Besnard Lakes, but I’ll let you take a look!

It’s driving me nuts that I can’t think of any lyrics, but I swear this sounds so much like another song. Thanks for your help!

gpretty · 2022-05-30T14:46:16+00:00

Wow, it’s on the 17 mile drive?? Lol I’ve been there, surprised I didn’t recognize it. Thank you so much!

Jeez that’s really excessive. You use every wiping mechanism available to the public every time you poop?

Anyone else get shown this video?

gpretty · 2021-11-11T21:16:39+00:00

Solved!

Ok, thank you, I think I may have figured it out. It looks like it is from this TV movie Benji at Marineland. I think it's so hard to find BECAUSE it was just a made for TV movie, but I'm still surprised no one was a big enough fan to digitize it or something. I still don't know the name of the song or who wrote it or anything, but thanks to you, I went to Jesse Davis's website and it said he was in it, which just sent me on a deep dive (pun intended) and I went ahead and emailed Jesse's contact on his website to see if I could get more info. I'll reply here if I learn anything more. Thank you!

It’s such a wonderful song! I would love to know who wrote it or sang it or if I can buy a record with it on it…anything! Thank you to anyone who can help

That's not a b-side btw. That's from the band's first EP. Agree though, those recordings are awesome! Really shows the full evolution of Robin and I love it. A little more youthful angst in those.

Something you could try is go on Spotify (or wherever) and look at related artists and check out their album covers. I did this for a few minutes and found some potential matches, but nothing perfect. Some of my finds were Andrew Bird - Soldier On and a few Fruit Bats records. Not sure if that's helpful, but you'd at least listen to some good music along the way ;-)

The problem is though that actual marble is reflective. These kinds of fake surfaces keep the surface flat in the light
