mmmm yes. so i was perusing my newly purchased copy of the dirty deluxe set and reading the liner notes therein when i came across thurston's account of mike kelley's artwork for the album. what interests me and what i would like to ask about is the picture thurston refers to as "bob flanagan and friend in a flagrant mood of adult memory sensation" which was discontinued from the first pressing of the dirty cd.
now. just recently i ordered an fx pedal from ebay and saw the guy selling it also had a copy of dirty for sale which i snapped up for a quid fifty. When i got it there was no great excitement because i knew the inlay pics and notes etc . . . aswell as the music of course. However, when i opened up that filthy fucker lo and behold i see me the dirtiest damned twisted image going right there under the cd and obscured by cloudy plastic. I had never seen it before. My friends were jealous. I felt content.
so yes. i have that picture on my cd inlay. i didn't know it had been deleted. i would imagine that's a pretty rare find aint it friends???? no?
