Rolling Stones Some Girls 1978 LP Banned Original UNCENSORED COVER 1st Print
Rolling Stones Some Girls 1978 LP Banned Original UNCENSORED COVER 1st Print
Here is a Rolling Stones SOME GIRLS 1978 LP BANNED/UNCENSORED COVER Original Press EX Cond. Here's the album that shook up some Celebrities back in the 1970s. It is in very good condition, cover, sleeve and record. Very good corners on both covers, album is very clean, one side does have some "hidden'' scuffs, but didn't affect the play of the record. The vinyl picked up some outside "junk" that seems to show up in the pictures. This is a very nice album, especially since it's 40+ years old.
The
album cover for Some Girls was conceived and designed by Peter
Corriston, who would design the next three album covers,[3] with
illustrations by Hubert Kretzschmar. An elaborate die-cut design, with
the colours on the sleeves varying in different markets, it featured the
Rolling Stones' faces alongside those of select female celebrities
inserted into a copy of an old Valmor Products Corporation
advertisement. The cover design was challenged legally when Lucille
Ball, Farrah Fawcett, Liza Minnelli (representing her mother Judy
Garland), Raquel Welch, and the estate of Marilyn Monroe threatened to
sue for the use of their likenesses without permission. Similarly,
Valmor did take legal action and were given a monetary award for the use
of their design.
The
album was quickly re-issued with a redesigned cover that removed all
the celebrities, whether they had complained or not. The celebrity
images were replaced with black and punk style garish colours with the
phrase Pardon our appearance – cover under re-construction. Jagger later
apologised to Minnelli when he encountered her during a party at the
famous discothèque Studio 54. The only celebrity whose face was not
removed was ex-Beatle George Harrison. As with the original design, the
colour schemes on the redesigned sleeves varied in different markets.
