I think the IYWML and Belle Fleur photos (like in the vinyl liner notes - just without the words sprawled all over) are still my favorites...and I LOVEEEEEEEEE the one of her doing splits on the floor where you see her reflection in that same mirror from the "Talk To Me" video!!!
I haven't played the CD yet, but can't wait to download it. It should sound so much better than the vinyl and digital downloads, right?

I actually wish they popped off the page more..a lot of them are just murky or way over lit (or futzed with in photoshop for the book-- for example aside from the obviously "golden-ized" ones several have very yellowy quality that gets annoying) and a lot are too washed out.
Re: the splits one, it took me a minute to notice the cigarette in her hand and the ashtray of butts…along with the silver shoe wedged in to hold the round mirror in place.
she looks like a pirate on the back cover…
I really like a lot about the Lady pic, but she does look rather sweaty and coked.
In the 1st polaroid collage I love the one with Sharon and Lori in black and Lori on the floor.
In the 2nd polaroid collage I wanna know who the guy is she's cuddling with in the top right...
Does anyone else's book smell funky? Mine has a weird, not quite cigarette smell, but definitely nastier than the usual print/ink smell. Weird.
