"Mustard" cover was painted by Roy Wood - but then he did everything on that album, he probably pressed it too.

I believe that Lowell George is making a second appearance... which makes me wonder if anyone has done a record called "Seconds" with a picture of the artist at a dinner table by himself and a huge pile of food surrounded by empty plates.

There's something especially bad about food related ones. I'd like to see one called "Something I Ate Didn't Agree With Me" and it could be maybe a giant, monstrous fish fillet sandwich snarling menacingly at the artist.

That is easily Lowell's third or fourth appearance with that cover, and I for one am always glad to see it come around.

Hope the inner sleeve has a from-above view of Ricky's hair, to provide the complete schematics of how it was engineered. I recall collarless dress shirts really coming into their own in the late-80s, usually accompanied by a tiny ponytail. Skaggs was out in front.
