I don't watch the Ellen show but I'd love to see Joyce Drake get her due

Here's the deal: for YEARS this album has topped the "Worst Album Covers" lists. It's on every website, it's been published in books, and this week Jeff Bridges showed it on the Ellen show. Joyce's picture has been photoshopped hundreds of times in less than flattering (and some down-right disgusting) pictures.

I knew her when I was a kid. She's actually a very nice lady and we had this album. As I remember, she's actually a pretty good singer. She's also a fellow Assemblies of God pastor's wife from Texas.

Her image has been used hundreds of times on the internet and in print publications. There are entire websites and fan pages on facebook dedicated to this album cover and making fun of Joyce. She has never received one dime of compensation for the use of her image and name.

Soooo....since Jeff Bridges decided to put her on the Ellen show I think that Ellen should be encouraged to let Joyce come on the show and show everyone that she's really pretty cool, has a great message and a great voice to go with it.

I'm asking you to let Ellen know that Joyce needs her 15 minutes of GOOD fame. Go to http://ellen.warnerbros.com/show/respond/?PlugID=253 OR you can call 866-355-3684. Just let them know that you would love to see Joyce Drake have a few moments on the show to discuss all of this. I think Ellen is crazy enough to do it...which would be pretty cool.

There is also a facebook group that Joyce's family has put together about it: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=282203757058&ref=ts

Just to show what kind of "fun" people have had with this album check out this facebook group: http://www.facebook.com/search/?q=joyce+drake&init=quick#/group.php?gid=7230032851&ref=search&sid=887495690.2048305977..1

Thanks for helping out!
