Kiss, Kiss (1974)
Few album covers immediately sum up their bands as well as Kiss’ debut record, Kiss, which was released in 1974. The photograph was taken by none other than Joel Brodsky, who famously created cover art for Van Morrison, Aretha Franklin, and the Doors, among several others. But, when the band walked onto the set for the first time, Joel was taken back.

He wasn’t familiar with the band’s unique look and thought they were dressed up like clowns. “We threatened to walk out, and he finally realized that we were serious, and he took the picture,” Kiss bassist Gene Simmons said in a 1994 interview. Joel and the band decided to pose as The Beatles had on their 1963 album, With the Beatles.
