Album Cover Challenge

Herb Albert's Tijuana Brass - Whipped Cream & Other Delights.

Modeling for The Ford Agency, Dolores Erickson was married and 28-years-old at the time. She had known Peter Whorf from working with him previously on other album covers and he was engaged to Erickson’s best friend. When she got the call from Whorf to do the album cover, she came to his garage which had been converted to a photography studio and the cover was shot in one day.

Although Erickson appears not to be wearing anything, she had been wrapped in cotton and had on a bikini underneath all the “cream.”

She was also three months pregnant at the time.

Photographer and cover designer Whorf did a masterful job at hiding Erickson’s pregnancy. One problem: they could not use whipped cream because it kept sliding off. The solution? Shaving cream which adhered better to Erickson’s body. The only bit of whipped cream is on her head and fingers.
