You would be hard pressed to beat The Scorpions Virgin Killer artwork featuring a naked 10 year girl. I will post a link rather than the actual cover.

Really ?! Now that explains a lot ...
erm.....My recommendation would have to be;

"Smell the glove" by Spinal Tap.

A truly disgusting, sexist, and degrading cover. Simply...What were they thinking!!!
err... (if you are not trolling here) it was a spoof band... watch the film!
Err... Usually the 'Clown' Smilie attached to the post denotes humour or sarcasm wink

What is that between Micks legs?

He nicked the originals off a bog chain in a pub in the 60s and started wearing them off his belt. He lost them so he had a new pair made by a carpenter and he never plays without them.

What are they? Is it the end of the bog chain?

I'd guess so. I read it somewhere a few years ago - it may have been in his autobiography.

Google brings this up: http://www.mauitime.com/Articles-i-2009-09-10-7081...

article said:
A few minutes into our conversation, I grasp Fleetwood's style: effortless, humble, carefully informative and surprisingly unpretentious. He's gracious with his rolling anecdotes and seems to enjoy telling them with humorous tonal inflections. Take, for example, the history of his wooden balls.

"The original, original ones I do not have—but the ones that I have are very, very old. I won't say they're as old as me. But—it starts getting into X-rated commentary here—my balls are quite old."


Fleetwood confirms that the original pair were "lavatory chains." Though we're conversing over the phone, I imagine him pantomiming the vandalism as he narrates: "I came out—and I must admit I had a couple of glasses of English ale—and came out of the toilet with these, I ripped them off the—you know, I was very destructive—I ripped them off the toilet and had them hanging down between my legs."

As for what happened to those originals—the "juju" good luck charm he never performs (specifically) Fleetwood Mac shows without? "I lost them at a gig," he says. "Eventually somewhere they got ripped off." After that, he visited a carpenter to get a replacement set.
His autobiography is an excellent read. It is extremely heartfelt and has some brilliant anecdotes, mostly involving the antics of their road manager, John Courage. The one that sticks out was Courage's birthday. The band and a few of the roadies smuggled a load of straw into his hotel room and chucked it all over the floor and furniture before adding a few chickens. When he returned to his room, Dennis Wilson (who was going out with Christine McVie) was lay in the bath, completely out of it and smoking two cigarettes. They eventually herded them into the lift and pressed 'L' for lobby.
