Analyzing album covers: LIVE (1980)

[Josh2003]

One thing that's always bothered/puzzled me about this cover: is Lindsey facing the audience? It's clear that everyone else is, but it looks like his back is to the audience.

Lindsey and the girl near him (Stevie?) are looking to the camera. Mick and John look to the audience. Christine (center) is an enigma to me.

After a couple of tours, I appreciate how the cover is a blur, because touring is like a blur.

I guess I'm one of the 'few' but I don't like this LP cover. Why with all the pictures they have can't just have a nice group shot. I think the blurry cover is horrible but thats IMO....it is what it is but it could've been sooooo much better thats all I'm saying.

Lindsey definitely has his back to the audience.

Stevie appears to as well, because we can see her hands clasped in front of her chest in a way that they wouldn't be able to behind her back.

Well, with the Mirage neck, we've already established that Stevie is a contortionist.

I always liked the cover. Love Stevie and her "poodle" hairdo.
