Words would spoil a perfect picture. Much as I love the
record, I think the picture's even better. At least for me,
at least this morning.

Stickers are OK until time turns them into a gooey mess.

I think they'll sell quite a few records on the strength of
this beautiful picture. I was only half joking when I
compared it to the nouvelle vague (sp?) directors. It's a
total one off. I hope they make a nice t-shirt out of it,
and a bloody big poster.

Could anybody ask any art "experts"(!) they might know what
they think about it? I'm curious to know whether I'm alone
on this one or not, and whether it's just my biased opinion.
If you don't know any art experts, ask your mum.

I wish I hadn't said art expert now. You know what I mean...
