you may be onto something with the top one. but when GG made that album that guy mite have looked very different. does anyone know what the artists inspiration was for that classic cover? it does match the sound of the first track i would say. ------------- The Worthless Recluse

Sorry to hurt your feelings Frenchie but Micheal has always looked the same. Here he is in 1970
