I think the one on the right looks like a dude.
Nope, both were women, their names are Constanze Karoli and Eveline Grunwald

As a fact, Constance (the one people believe was a dude) is sister (Not girlfriend) of Michael Karoli from Can

Take a look at the cover to Wallenstein's 'No More Love' album - now that's more offensive to me....

Hide sexual parts people for google....as a species there is only 7 billion of us on the planet so removing some pubic hair won't deter us from procreating again , again and again

Thanks for the clarification !! Eveline did some great cover art-works for some German prog bands - Ramses and Phantom band come to mind.

There was this Saudi prince in the 80s who bought a magnificent pink stone mansion in Beverley Hills that had a visible and elevated garden that contained dozens of Greek statues. He had hair glued to the vital areas including....are you ready.....armpits!  The level of laughter caused by passing motorists was such that some thought there were unending earthquakes LOL   It was the talk of LA for a very long time.......Maybe he bought Google Adsense, ........just wondering.....

This is absolutely ridiculous! I could imagine to see many oddities in a forum and site dedicated to the progressive rock, but that I would one day face such a blatant censorship I could never dream of. Angry

And it is not only an ugly practice, reminiscent of some past Stalinist or Inquisitionist times, it is a rude negation of the artistic freedom and artists' creativity. Dead

Welcome to the new internet totalitarianism.

If this practice should continue, I definitely will not want to stay a member of this site. And I wrote 600+ album reviews... Cry

Please, find a solution to remove this barbarity!

^Hi Seyo.
Trust me when I say that nobody here wants this change. We're doing the best that we can, but unless we can find a way of bypassing the Google route, then we're forced to do this. Or else we'll lose the site.
We all hate this, and the fact that some arbitrary search machine out there in the internet has control over what is acceptable and not, and furthermore has no way of sniffing out the art from the porn - that in itself is ridiculous and downright wrong. 
“The Guide says there is an art to flying or rather a knack. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.”
