Going back to how they were marketed-
You would have to be naive to think that they were NOT marketed as acouple:rolleyes osn't the photo say it all.And saying they were marketed as a couple is nither here nor there as far as people having an opinion about them or having that be an advantage or disadvantage.
That cover probably through the public off a bit,I think that even may be the reason for the poor sales.How many people aren't going to turn completely red at the counter because of the cover while they are checking it out;they were probably so embarresed they didn't want to go through with it so they left it alone.When I checked out the bootleg of it my face was flushed.
Now if I was alive back then it would have appealed to me for two reasons 1.the obvious they are attractive people and a great looking couple 2. doing something that radical on a cover;cool:;point is that's just a cover and the public dosn't want to go past an image which is a shame cause I think that that album is brilliant.
Javier was just jealous ,but getting all angry about something that happpened 20 years ago won't make it better.Did he straight out blame Keith for being racist or what???
