Below are a few album covers
well they are photos I found on the web.
and made in to what
could be used as album covers.
So
they are " Generic Album Covers of Real Artists
"
I did not
take the photos just found them and adjusted
or edited them for this size to use for album art for the
artists.
I use
them to cover all the songs for the artist or group in
the photo's
no matter what album the songs were released on.

the same title as " best of "

This
cover of Dooley Wilson I made from the
only photo I could
find yes he is the bartender
bogart told to play it again. he had a band before
he started acting and he sang one of the songs
in the film. so
his song is always on the
soundtrack album and not on his own. it also
happens I could not find any of his so I
made him one. oh by the way he could not
play the piano so he was not able to play it again.

Yes I
did make it look like water
on my fake doug kershaw album why ?
because I found albums for him but none i liked
the covers were not techy enough for my tastes
so I created this artist generic album cover
but it looks Cool even with fake water.
I did lots of
cutting and texture stuff on this one
I don't know what I did before photo shop. |

Don't
go looking for this
Duane Eddy album why ?
because it is not real.
this is one of my
created artist generic
album covers but it looks Cool.
I also use it
for all the songs
I have of theirs instead of the
other bad looking covers. |

This
Edward Bear album
is really of 3 album's and a 45 rpm sleeve.
I got the
images from online in different
formats and sizes so I put them together to
make this best albums cover. they only made
4 albums and the name of the group was taken
from name of the 1st teddy bear used as a
model for the winnie the pooh cartoon.
I also put
a photo of that bear in this cover.

You
will find this Ernest Tubb image on albums
the photo is used alot but they tend to use
color filters over the whole image and put his
name on it smaller or just cut the background
out all together. most the time it is the color green
that they use because green was the color of most
of his suits. I photo shopped his name in this one.
notice he is
holding jimmy rodger's guitar. |

well
here is old blue eye's
as normal Frank Sinatra has class too.

I made
this because there are none i can find
that was for ramona only, they always had other
artists on the albums the photo of grandpa jones
and romona was at the grand ol oprey.
I put a picture of the smokie mountains in the
background since I have songs for just her as
the artist. i thought it better to have a photo of
husband and wife so i used it. |

This
Jean Shepard cover was made in the same
style of lorretta lynns below I found this photo
online so i stopped looking for her albums
and just used this to make one since I noticed the
same style as lynn's so i figured why not both
are country queens. if you don't know the backup
singers on the left are the Carol Lee Singers, I
don't know the piano player? |

Why a
Jeno Jando cover
Well it seems classical people hardly ever
get thier own albums so I found his photo

I have a few
songs he prformed
and though he needed a cover too. |

This is
an actor you say? there might just be
someone with his songs on a tape and they might
want an album cover I found too many photos of Jerry
Orbach from the last tv show he did but not
one about his singing. And I wanted album cover
for him so i made this one to cover his disney songs
and any others he might have sang, yes he was
the voice for the little candle stick guy in disneys
beauty and the beast film |

This
cover seems not needed you say? because you
can find his all over the internet? well there is a need
for it because all the covers I found were of his
peppermint twist covers but none to use for his
best songs. i found the photos on the band
members site so i used them to make this album
cover of Joey Dee And The Starlighters
I don't know if
he is still working the tour
routes but he was in 2004. |

This
Johnny Roriguez cover I made because
the ones online that I found were too
small to use So I found this photo online and
used it to make this one, why the title?
because johnny has had a troubled carrer,
same old, same old teen star,
too much money, and also the threat of jail time.
but i have some
of his songs and wanted a cover for him too. |
Top

This
Johnny Western cover
was made because of the same reason
the hugh o brian cover was his songs
always seem to be on various artist ablums.
He did the theme song for the
tv show "Paladin"
and other show
themes
and movie songs. but i only found 2 albums online
and they were too small to use.
so I made this
album cover. |

This is
a cover I made for bluegrass great Josh
Graves okay so I got crazy and made him in front
of the plastic wrap there were some of his albums
online but most I found were his songs on various

I wanted a best of album
cover for him also. yes that is his name,
i am not sure if he is related to the actor peter graves
or not.? |

This is
one funny artist, larry verne he did these
comedy songs i have both mister livingston and
mister custer. talk about a riot the guy in the mr.
custer song did that today he'd be put in the brigg.
And if you look
close you will see this is a 45 rpm
sleeve also. i did mess with it in photo shop but
the real one is just him his name and the song
titles on a white background |

Ah!!
the Queen of Country

i added
in the photo of marvin hamlisch
making it look like he is behind a wall. since he
did modify scott joplin's music for this film i
thought to use it's cover it too had to be cleaned
up in the photo editor. but since i could only find
albums he was part of or had no image of him i
did this cover, and since i messed with the
cover art i can'tput it in the real covers |

Thinking
Why a mel blanc image?
because I have a lot of sound effects
and one liners of his that I wanted a cover for.
so I made one
since I needed one and
only found his photo online this photo was better
then the other ones i found so i used it. |

This is
perplexing to me why? because I don't know
what MFSB stands for. (I know the getto meaning
so don't send me that one if you send any.)

I have by them. |

I found
this sheet music cover for the song,
and no album cover for it or the artist at all.
what i did find out is that Paul Nicholas has done more
stage acting and singing, then recording
of records, It
seems he only made one hit song
and this is it. |

The
photo of Paul Warren was cut out of an
photo of him and lester flatt and earl scruggs
playing a concert, it was the only photo i could
find of paul to use and he made no albums of
his own, he made some of his own single
recordings but they were used for fiddle songs
on the other artist's albums since i have a few
that were put on a various artist's fiddle ablum
i wanted a cover for him. |

ths
paul weston album i made because i could not
find one to my liking the images were too small to
use any other way or they were not scanned in the

wrote a new title comment. |

can you
believe it randy and the rainbows are still
making albums I found this photo online at a site
for them but then i found their site i decided to use

looks cool to me and is keeping with their rainbow
theme their
site and new 2002 album is at

this is
the "clown prince of comedy" as Red skelton
called himself
that. i have some of his spoken comedy. so I found these
narrow
images and made them as one album cover to use and he
still is the
funniest one of all. why did i called him the king of clean
comedy.
his stuff is always clean. he believed that if you said
swear words
and told dirty jokes you were doing a dishonor to your
fans.
because those things poison the medicine of laughter, he
was
preforming world wide for 50 years so he has to have been
right
about being clean. johnny carson was a script writer for red
skelton. |

this is
Rex Allen Jr. i have looked but i could not find
any covers for him but i did find his web site so i took
this image
which is a perfect pose for a cover and made this..
i did do some
mixing up with it in the photo shop
i was debating on weather or not to put him in
a different location, by changing the background like
maybe to
hawaii but then i though he looked a little out of place.
so i just changed the color of his background and did
this.
i stuck in a little turquoise blue since he is from
Arizona. |

this is
robin luke i made this for the reason of when i was
looking for
his cover i found he only did a single, or appears to
have only done
a single release since his newer photo has him holding up
his covers
which are 45 sleeeves. i found the images fairly easy and
on the one
page it had his bio in which it says that he wrote his
song. Susie darlin'
for his sister who is in the black and white photo. so i
put this cover
together so you can see him then and now or in the 1980's?.
I say that
because i found a photo of him older yet which is done in
the style of
1990's where it shows him as a univeristy professor for
Missouri |

alright
now this guy took some doing to find but he had no album
cover not that i could find anyway. but some one had his
photo
online in a bad antique redish yellow and it was cut down
the middle
but i got this made for him. I had to add to it in photo shop
but it looks alright since i made it black and white and
out of
focus except around him. |

well
you can tell i had some fun with this cover
since i made it for santana's song of black magic woman.
this neon background image looks really cool.

online as normal

this to it
i know there are lots of his covers online but when i get
an idea
i just got to get it put on the image. |

i
found lots of errors in looking for the ray charles
singers covers
most think it is Ray Charles the R&B singer.
It Is NOT there were 2 one did this group and had lots of
albums the other had a movie of his live made in 2004/2005
but they are different people. this photo was a PR. for
the group
if you look around the web you will find photos
of them at a banquet in their honnor and the R&B ray
is not there. |

Waylon
Jennings.
I found this on his web site, I took it to photo shop and
adjusted the contrast and brought him
out of the background some.
I believe that
he is just as well known as Elvis or should be.
still I put his name in neon red.
to match the Bar room feel of the photo |

This
cover image was made by me but the photos are really him.
Wade Ray and The Country Fiddlers, why because there was
no
photo cover for this Album or Artist online and they
needed one,
yes i'm taken liberties at putting it on this page but
its a real album
and needed album art. Fiddlers seem to be getting raw
deals with the
art, wade only
made 3 ablums and none has any art online til now
and this is the only one unless some one else puts one up..trivia,
wade
played fiddle for hank williams sr. on most the songs,
and radio shows |

this is
a sheet music cover. I could not find any
images for the albums, I found it online and was
able to make it in to album art. If you are looking
at this for
your songs then you too have old ones
where tom sang on story songs for kids with a
narrator for teaching them some history lessons,
I also think this was tompall glaser of country fame,
I think he changed the spelling of his name. |
