I’ve been wanting to post this sucker for a while, just never got around to it. Well, here’s a Brumalian gift for you.
Love God Love One Another was released on Fowl records, Dan Houser’s record label in a run of 1000. The covers were hand made, designed by creatively altering existing album covers. The record & individual cover art were well received. Black Humor played about four shows in San Francisco & then soon self-destructed.
I spoke to Dan Houser about this time last year. He was living in Germany & expecting a baby any day. He said there were two labels interested in re-releasing Love God Love One Another, but as he honestly quipped, it ‘was all talk’.

I read on the Black Humor myspace that they were encouraging people to send in pictures of their LP covers... I wonder if anyone did it? Mine is a defaced cover of "Wildest Organ in Town" by Billy Preston.
ReplyDeleteI'll check it out. Mine is Swamp Dogg Rat On!. I've seen several others (painted beyond recognition & Beach Boys defaced with marker). It would be great to see a collection of as many as possible.
ReplyDeleteI wanted to ask if it always the Swamp Dogg cover which was the basis cover, but reading these comments.... well, it really would be great to see as many covers as possible
ReplyDeleteurbanology,
ReplyDeleteThanks for your interest.
It appears they just used whatever old album covers they had available & then altered them in various styles.

I have known Danny Houser since 1969 and can't believe I do not have this record in any of its forms. I talked to Danny yesterday. He is living in Texas and doing well, but he has become rather reclusive.
