Behind The Mask

I had no idea there was an alternate version of "Affairs". Gonna have to do some searching...

And, yeah, what is up with that cover? I was expecting something similar to the Save Me single cover...does anyone know the story behind the BTM cover?

Someone may have a more official story, but I think each character on the cover represents a band member or an ideal of a band member. The pretty gal in the front wearing the wedding dress represents Stevie. The clownish lady with the hat and straps is probably Mick. The dude with the accordian is Chris. The bluesy black guy in the chair is likely John (or maybe Rick since he's a blues guy and there is a similar pic of him w/ guitar in the booklet) and the two characters not really doing anything (yet) may represent are Rick and Billy.

It's interesting how none of the album covers from Tango through Time were marketed with any of the actual band members. Symbolic?

That's what I always thought it was, but I was never sure.
