HutchFan Posted January 17, 2022 Report Share Posted January 17, 2022 This is a promo photo instead of an album cover, but it's still meets the "wrong instrument" criteria: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Dryden Posted January 17, 2022 Report Share Posted January 17, 2022 I always thought that this was a campy CD cover.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once when I was maybe 20, I had a girl friend who wanted to carry my bass fiddle through the village. (Sure, I was a jazz-only musician, but we were on holiday at a mountain village and when the locals organized a party with austrian folk music and dance, they asked me to play with them, so I had to get my bass fiddle to the location for the performance, but my then girl friend, really nicely dressed for the event and an eye catcher for the locals and turists with her long blond hair and green eyes said "I want to carry the bass fiddle" (I didn´t have a bag for the fiddle) , so I begged her to not do it because a girl shouldn´t carry such a large instrument, but in vain, she wanted to be seen with the bass fiddle so I had to let her do it.

That's Mrs. Sandke (Karen IIRC) on the left with whatever instrument that is. Good record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Dryden Posted January 20, 2022 Report Share Posted January 20, 2022 I pretty much figured that out when I received it. Glad to see artists who enjoy hamming it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rooster_Ties Posted January 22, 2022 Report Share Posted January 22, 2022 (edited) Where’s that “Jazz in Holland” cover (or whatever it is called) — the one with the black guys they pulled off the street and posed with instruments they’d each probably never held a day I their life. The actual players on the record were all white (and Europeans) iirc — and the trombone player in the pic on the cover is the tell, because he clearly has no idea how in the world to hold a trombone while playing it. The LP dates from around 1967, and looks a bit like an Impulse! cover, slightly (in terms of the overall color scheme). I’m sure a number of you remember this.
