I've read the liner notes and still don't get the cover... did they miss the train and have to walk? Why does the bassist have to carry his bass but the drummer only carries his snare?

Outstanding.

 

 

Do you think McCann intended the album title & photo to be ironic?  All of the women are TALLER than he is!  

Looks like he's happy to be there, regardless.

Yeah, it's a classic self-deprecatory sleeve. Sure it's intended to be funny. Here's another. The bandleader is the one in red, getting toughed up by a rozzer.

We could have a thread on musicians looking awkward in inappropriate settings:

[The Magnificent Goldberg]

Charles Earland - Infant eyes - Muse 1978

Charles Earland - In the pocket - Muse 1982

Ramsey Lewis - Never on Sunday - Argo 1961

[Rabshakeh]

Chick Corea Akoustic Band – Alive (GRP, 1991)

Not a group that I ever really "got", but they have a huge following in some circles. Giving it a listen after a conversation with a friend's brother, a fusion head, who considers this record up there with the very greatest.
