This takes the cake for bad taste in off-
target advertising! Frank Zappa and
illustrator Neon Park put their heads
together to do the below '70 album
cover. It was about counter-culture
satire, sort of the "anti-ad"! It was a
successful, if offbeat, strategy.

But the above ads were apparently
actual attempts to sell products. The
people behind them shoehorned dis-
parate visual elements/messages
together -- and missed the mark
completely! LOL! IF we can have
a Bad Taste Award on this
thread, can I vote now???




Illustrator Neon Park did this, er, uh, parody
album cover for the 1970 follow-up to "Burnt
Weenie Sandwich" by Zappa and his Mothers
of Invention. Cover THANKS to Wikipedia, shown
here under fair-use rationale, for info only.
