This photo appears to me to be at least 20 years old (dating back from 2014). Thus it appears to be following in the tradition of Frantic (2002), which used a cover photo from the late 1980s.

Strange indeed. -Looks as if they`re milking the Avalon vibe for all it`s worth (the letters, the symmetry).

I was hoping for the shot we discussed previously but I like this older one too.

viewtopic.php?f=6&t=2239

If that is not just another temp cover image then maybe the older image on the front, up to date image on the back?

The same image was used in sketch form for the front cover of his 1974 tour book.

Well done roxy for spotting the sketch.

Now, whilst BF looks fantastic in the pic, I'm not a fan of the on and off trend Bry has to dig out old pics for wrappers around new work. Maybe I'm missing something. Whatever. as a cover it's just totally underwhelming IRSNSHO.
