Micky, you know the story why the ABB is hilarious on that shot??

Just a few seconds before, they were in execrable moods, because they'd been waiting for the man (dealer) for hours, and he was nowhere to be seen.

As they were getting ready for the picture, the man crossed the picture path and dropped on Duane's lap a big bag of dope and disappeared out of the field. All that Duane could do was to conceal "da dope" evidence between his crotch and cover it with his hands, therefore creating general hilarity


I'd always heard this story as the band being pissed off that the photographer dragged them out to get the picture taken at sunrise. They were all tired and told him that it wouldn't make any difference what time of day the picture was taken. So they were being all pouting until they recognized a dealer walking by and Duane ran over and grabbed some "product", hiding it between his legs and creating the shot we have today. Still a great story behind the album cover!

I love the cover of KCs "Discipline". Not really the kind of thing that is popular here, it seems...
