      I don't think that a lot of the humour in these 'bizarre' record covers is really about anyone's plain looks, but more about the layouts, tone or extremely dated aesthetic.
      I mean the "Use Me Jesus" title is hilarious, and the way the three heads were arranged made them look like they were those wobble headed dashboard ornaments.
      And those sixties perm hairdos combined with horn rimmed glasses were a bit confronting even back in the sixties.
      Meanwhile the Ken and ventriloquist doll ones just looked creepy.
      So it's more a comment on the album cover designers than anything else.
