The Worst Album Covers Ever!: Rope Jumping for Boys and Men



Artist ~ Charles Roy Schroeder, Ph.D.
Title ~ Rope Jumping for Boys and Men

In 1970s United States there was an entire
industry of 'gym class' records to be played
during the school exercise period. Most of
them seemed aimed more towards keeping
a class full of restless kids busy for an hour
than at promoting healthy exercise.



This is just odd. I can't help wondering what could've made this rope jumping record so special and exclusive to boys and men only? And what must occur when, say, a girl or woman happens to overhear a bit of the recording by accident? Does her head explode, or something?

  1. Obviously this must be very MANLY music, the kind that females are too sensitive for. And yet this music must have a rockin' beat, to keep those men and boys skip-skipping away.
