One of the most famous lines from television was uttered by Jack Webb (link below) portraying the character, Sgt. Joe Friday, in the 1951 series, Dragnet: “All we want are the facts, ma’am”. By popular use the line was eventually corrupted to, “Just the facts, ma’am.” (link below).

I have written many articles about vinyl LPs (link below) with extensive details about the album in question. However, some of the articles are ONLY or MOSTLY about the album COVER; the cover is the focus. It seemed appropriate to paraphrase the corrupted Dragnet line to list those albums and the link below leads to the list of the albums in question.
