Mercury looks inherently smack-able in each of these. Both great records, tho'.

I wish I could find a picture of the back cover, where Herbie stands with his upper body nude and his hands on his chest, with the same expression on his face.

revive posts are good but a lot of ppl didn't understand smug in the 2000s apparently

Yeah, most musicians don't fall into the trap of looking really smug on an album cover, it's nagl (e.g. self-satisfied and with a cheesy grin). Usually they pick a photo that's 'serious' or just smiling slightly - a music photographer could give plenty of actual insights into that!
