Mark - >Personally I'd buy it if it had a picture of Divine eating a dog turd on the cover!
Watch out you don't give Joni any new creative and scathing ideas with her latest mood about the music biz - (trying very hard not to use that "C" word here - heehee) >Maybe she thinks of this album as a continuation of the last one and this portrait as another study in a series. I love your perspective on the portrait and went back again to have another look (and to see if maybe there were any hidden hearts again ;-) The depth is amazing and feels very three-dimensional. I think you are right about a deliberate duality effect. On her face the shadows and light almost form a vague yin yang symbol. I can't wait to see what else is inside. I had a little gasp reading through the song titles again and imagining them in their new incarnations. It's going to be a sweet November. Kakki
