Liner Notes

The Story Of Uncle Meat

Background Information

The teeth motif on the front and back covers satirized the old teenybopper posters that had featured "kissable close-ups" of the Beatles' lips, gums and teeth.

Or It could be that Cal Schenkel had just moved into a new studio on Melrose Avenue that was formerly a dentist's office and had loads of dental stuff still in there just waiting to be used.

Conceptual Continuity

The liner notes for Uncle Meat explains the "origin" of the Ruben & The Jets album cover.
