Lesbian Concentrate: A Lesbianthology of Songs and Poems is a compilation of music and spoken word by lesbian artists. It was released by Olivia Records in 1977 in response to Anita Bryant's anti-gay crusade "Save Our Children".[1][2][3]

The album's cover – a reference to Bryant's role as spokeswoman for the Florida Citrus Commission – has more recently received a great deal of attention on the Internet, by appearing in a number of "worst album covers ever" lists.[4][5][6]
