Who came up with "let's all pose with guitars!" first, Roxy or the Cult?

where is everyone getting these? can't find any of the ones i'm searching for.

Yeah, it's true that these are not overly posted on the internet yet.

This is the outside of that ABBA one. The usual version has the park bench image on the outside and a vertical shot of them on the inside. The Swedish edition looks like this:

in a way, the most evil is the gatefold with little more than an entire panel devoted to just two words:

anyway, it's Miles Davis "Get Up With It" inscribed white on black: "FOR DUKE"

my fave, including as it does in the bottom left corner the quote
"I get buzzed off the fact that Andy Warhol's heard of us because he gets buzzed off the fact that Picasso had heard of him."

by the way Discogs is a good place for inside-the-gatefold sleeve art, even when google images isn't coming up with the goods.

God, that Roxy gatefold. It's just so outrageous from top to bottom. Paul Thompson looks like he's cracking up that he's even holding a guitar! And their shoes!

I don't think anyone's ever looked as purely COOL as Ferry in that shot.

^^^I recognise that. T Dream?

I can't find a picture of the inside of the vinyl version of the Beasties Boys To the 5 Boroughs, it's not as good as the CD version but it's still really nice, sadly it costs a lot of money now.
