The amount of genuine nudity in European soundtrack art is pretty remarkable, from the topless girl on the cover of Sarde's "Beau Pere" LP to a revealing shot of Charlotte Rampling on some CD I played recently.
I don't think it will save the soundtrack industry, but...
I was gonna say--is there a 'for fans that find men attractive" thread? Because in terms of both genders, I have a number of (European or Japanese) releases that seem to show a lot of flesh on the cover.
i do know as a teen when I was collect used Lp copies of soundtracks, a number of times the record store clerk would tell me that this was a popular record when he was in university to put on for, err, sexual encounters. (This tended to be trendy soundtracks--like Moroder's American Gigolo)
I vividly remember the original short film Cashback that was expanded to feature length, and we were supposed to find it an aspect of the hero's artistic sensitivity that he was obsessed with women (especially beautiful naked ones with model-thin physiques). Because your average, non-artistic man never thinks about women, especially ones who look like naked fashion models.
That soundtrack cover recreates the sensibility pretty accurately (though the short and feature themselves are hardly so discreet as far as the bodies on display).
