I mean if I had no photos, I would like album photo art to help sustain me during my lonely isolation. Oh the joy of waking up every day to this:






Here's an in-depth appraisal (or should that be dissection) of the album.

^ Thanks, that was interesting reading. It actually would freak me out waking up and seeing Ken's big head (maybe I just ain't full enough of the holy spirit).

If I were to choose an album cover to adorn my desert island home, I would sooner have, and this band is in PA, an [unblurred] Acid Mothers Temple cover.

Assuming the island has no electricity, you won't be able to listen to the the music, but the booklet will provide at least a few minutes of reading entertainment.

Following the rules you could at least take this Tilly for the album's music or for the cover.

I'm pretty sure that a thread started in PA has NEVER stayed on point! LOL
