I see the line continued to be pushed and so far it's OK. Hopefully we can all continue to act responsibly
In my opinion....if it's album art that appeared on the shelves for purchase...than it has no business being censured on this forum. It is art....and if we are we going to start censuring nudity and "offensive topics" than I think we have crossed the line into a state not unlike that of extreme totalitarianism where thought and free speech become the victims and the population is "dumb-ed down" into submission. Glad to see the stuff we've posted remains. Remember...if it was able to be placed on the store's shelf, in full view of anyone...who then has the "right" to say it's inappropriate?
On a related note...I recall that the controversial John Lennon album "Two Virgins" (I won't push the envelope and post it here) was on store shelves as well...but it typically had something blocking the cover so that the full frontal nudity was concealed. OK...rant protecting free speech and the arts is over now. Thanks for the bully pulpit. :vroam:
Not just a great cover, but a fantastic album...

To all those who have posted "concerns" about the Blind Faith Album. You do realize that it was a picture of a pre-pubescent girl, don't you? Nothing erotic at all about that cover. A tempest in a teapot, if you ask me.

I do not advise anyone to test Bennett’s theory on this. Posting the cover of that Blind Faith album will earn you a lifetime ban from this forum and I’m not joking in any way, shape or form.
I actually googled it to see what the fuss was about, then went into my internet history to make sure that it was removed from there and any and all trace was removed from my pc.....regardless of who the band members were i'm not associating with any of that even if it is just a album cover.

I'm surprised Bennett didn't post this one already...

That one freaked me out when it was released. 'Ugh! Look at that thing!'
