I think it's cool the way the title of the record is represented as a minimalist quote from the girl. The best thing about this cover is the woman and her expression. In case you didn't know, "What Now My Love? Thus, her blank expression and quote have special significance - and the stark black composition also compliment the dark theme.
My favorite rendition is by Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass. To further beat my point to death, compare the What Now My Love? Same basic theme: a cute blonde with a portion of the cover a stark background with clean font. But what's the difference here?
For one, the album doesn't reflect anything about the music itself. It's like they just found a picture of a pretty lady lying around, and slapped a logo on the top, and bada bing it's done. Plus, the picture is so busy and cluttered with an awkwardly cropped hat and varying floral patterns. The way the image is rounded on the left corner is really the only evidence of an attempt at artistry.
And the fact that her earring changes hue as it extends into the band of light colors is further evidence that this was hurredly put together with no attention to detail. I'm saying that with tongue planted firmly in cheek, of course.
