Nico is right, the cover is absolutely irrelevant to the music inside. It's an intriguing picture, nothing more, nothing less. The music is all that matters. If you think his picture looks 'distressed', look what the brilliant Peter Gabriel did for his 3rd solo album cover.
It's a downright disturbing self-portrait that I'm sure had all his fans wondering "What was he thinking?!!" Despite the horrifying cover, the album contained some of his best solo material ever. So, while it's fun to speculate & over-analyze every little tidbit that comes along, even a simple picture, just remember it's THE MUSIC that matters!
