Lousy album, great cover

Were you ever taken in by a cool-looking cover, only to realize you had bought a dog?

Not that I have bought it, but I am tempted to get the first album by Freddie and the Dreamers, from 1963. However, I just KNOW it will be crap. I mean, just look at that cover! You couldn't get away with something like that today. It just does not speak to a modern audience. Even in 1963, nobody wore a night cap for beddie bye-byes. Still, it climbed to #5 UK.
