POP-A-LOOZA: LP Cover Cavalcade # 2

Each week, the pop culture website Pop-A-Looza shares some posts from my vast 'n' captivating Boppin' (Like The Hip Folks Do) archives. The latest shared post is another in my series of annotated record album galleries, LP Cover Cavalcade # 2.

With this post, Pop-A-Looza has now shared all of my LP Cover Cavalcades and Comic Book Cover Cavalcades to date: LP Cover Cavalcade # 1 and Comic Book Cover Cavalcade # 1. Two weeks ago, I posted a complete collection of links to all editions those series' predecessor, Comics And LP Cover Cavalcade. There's still one more separate Cavalcade that will probably appear at Pop-A-Looza in the near future. Clearly, it's time for me to make more.

So. Next up will be either a Comic Book Cover Cavalcade devoted to DC Comics' 1970s dollar tabloids or the first edition of CD Cover Cavalcade. I'll commence writing the former once I get over the crushing disappointment of discovering that I got rid off all of my Famous 1st Edition tabloids somewhere along the way; WHAT WAS I THINKING...?! Oh, the humanity...! The latter will be an annotated gallery of the cover graphics from five CDs for which I wrote the liner notes.

I'm happy to say that I've written liners to more than just five CDs, as well as liners for one vinyl-only release. I think this set o' links offers portals to (nearly) my entire liner-writin' resumé:

THE FLASHCUBES: Bright Lights

THE FLASHCUBES: A Cellarful Of Boys

JACK "PENETRATOR" LIPTON: Bad Boy

A modest list to be sure, but I'm proud of it. I also wrote liners for Rhino Records' Poptopia! Power Pop Classics Of The '90s, which isn't linked here because I've never posted those liners on the blog. Guess I oughtta rectify that oversight.

Meanwhile, we have five other albums to talk about, by The Go-Go's, Herman's Hermits, The Kinks, The Rutles, and various Motown Records artists. LP Cover Cavalcade # 2 is the latest Boppin' Pop-A-Looza.
