What happens when a band known for raw, straight-ahead rock hands a surrealist design outfit a title borrowed from a cartoon villain? You get a cover that looks like a crime scene assembled by people who weren’t entirely sure what crimes actually look like. Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap is equal parts menace, mischief, and make-believe — a stitched-together fever dream that shouldn’t work, but absolutely does.

What do you get when four Wyoming college kids mix Moog synthesizers, LSD blotter paper, a vending machine that hasn’t stocked Pom Poms since 1959, and a design studio they made up on the spot? You get the only album in history that sparked campus “lick parties,” triggered health-department warnings, and shipped with a tongueprint no one can agree on. This is Absolutely Do Not Lick This Album—the psychedelic hoax that tasted like freedom and regret at the same time. Grab a copy—just don’t lick it—and listen along with us.

A scribbled phrase. A wooden crate. A shy kid from Jersey and a sax man with a fedora. In two hours and just 600 photographs, they created one of the most recognizable images in rock history—Bruce leaning into Clarence, the sound and soul of Born to Run frozen in time. It’s the story of a chance meeting, a hustling photographer, and a shot that defined the American dream. Grab a copy and listen along with us. Questions, comments, recommendations?
