But from the other granddaddy album covers I've looked at, the only reason this one is disturbing is because it is the best and most tasteful design Granddaddy has done. I guess some people just might find that disturbing. If anyone can point me to a photo that has better detail (what is that skater holding in his right arm? Is it Roger's arm? Is he sniffing it? I guess _that_ would be gross. He could be a rollerblading courier, returning Roger's arm back to his rightful owner. So there's a superhero element to it), it would be appreciated. Paul > My eyes!
