Over fifty-three years ago The Who released the British drama film, Quadrophenia; the following month, on the 2nd of November, 1979, they released the soundtrack for the film on this vinyl LP.
The album cover is the focus of this entry so it is in the “Just the cover, ma’am!” category (link below); anyway, so much has already been written about it (links below).

20,000 vinyl LPs 294: Plastic Ono Band ~ Some Time In New York City
~
vinyl LP front cove
cover photos by Joseph Sia
photo of album cover by Styrous®
Forty-nine years ago, on the 12th of June in 1972, the Plastic Ono Band (John Lennon, Yoko Ono) released the album, Some Time in New York City. (links below).
“And
you know how bad the reviews were of our Plastic Ono albums?” John
asked. “They shredded us! “‘elf-indulgent, simplistic whining’ – that
was the main gist. Because those albums were about ourselves, you see,
and not about [David Bowie’s] Ziggy Stardust or [The Who’s] Tommy. . .
. And Mind Games, they hated it.”
The cover pretty much tells the story, so, Some Time in New York City is in the “Just the cover, ma’am!” category (Link below).
