At the end of the gig they produced these rather large swords and started to stick them into the stage. They are lucky the notorious Apollo bouncers didn`t kick the sh*t out of them. Anyway "Death to false metal!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neverheard of Visitor 25... but gonna check em out - there was a thread a while back about albums purchased on the strength of the cover... Nowamowa was mine... but i'd of bought the above. That's what sold me on it back in 1978 or thereabouts. The music was very new to me. I was more used to the Country & Western and showband music of Ireland where I lived at the time. It turned my head right around as I got deeply into it. Here it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just quickly Google imaged some to remind me. These are the two best covers of albums I don't own I think that’s an outtake, or possibly a variant……the original looks like this: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They completely blew my head off. It was the best gig I’d ever been to and has only been surpassed once since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nail Soup Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 Here's one where I like the cover, but not on a favourite album (I think the Doors are OK, for the record) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the SBS cover and is there anything more iconic and immediately identifiable than the Motorhead one? The Lionheart cover gets a lot of flack from some quarters but I feel sets the mood of the album really nicely.
