Some Sabbath artwork, on the other hand, is relatively well done. The covers of the debut album and Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, for example.

Many years ago I copied the cover of Vol 4, or the figure of Ozzy, using the grid technique. The modest drawing, quite a bit larger than the CD cover it was copied from, is still on the wall in my old home, at my father.

Honorary 'worst album cover' mention, however, must go to Sabotage - Bill Ward's 'paunch and red tights' look is absolutely unique

Re: WORST Album Cover Artwork

Just pulled out my copy of Gryphon's LP "Midnight Mushrumps". That cover is pretttty bad. The album title doesn't have much going for it either, but that's another topic.
