I was ridin’ high after finding this album on-line. Ethel just kills me but this album cover just really knocks me out!

Got to give Ethyl credit for mounting a horse, albeit wooden, let alone making a disco LP in ’79. Do you know what year this was made?
I love the art direction, especially the way the back of Ethel’s dress is blurred into the clouds. I think one of her relatives must have done this pre-Photoshop job because it’s so awkwardly done.
Do you know what songs does she sings?

It’s fantastic, someone is either holding her dress or they have it taped to something! Hope the following info helps, I own this but not the actual lp and cover.

Denny this is one of those things that I keep coming back to because it just seems so over the top. The last time I thought of her was when I rented “It’s a Mad Mad Mad World” last year, a 1963 movie. She was one of a kind!

I heard (strictly gossip mind you) that Ethel used to keep a bottle of poppers in her purse. When I heard that, it made me love her even more.
