My favorite is the visage of an enraged dog, jaws unfolded. Apocryphal album title: "IX Corps: Their Time Shoveling Smoke." What a great album cover! Much better than the cover of Pink Floyd's "Atom Heart Mother," which was an insipid cow standing in a field, which hung in my teenage bedroom till my mother sold the house. Clearly, there's a grammatically indifferent admixture of pictures and words in the works, which is forming a progressively more distinct and powerful language. It also occurs to me how easy it now is to suggest that something is there, when it is not. It is that latter factor that I must warn you about.
