This is undoubtedly an all-time great album cover of the mid 1970s. 1976 to be specific.Seals and Crofts are portrayed as mystics of subculture (er, didn't they call it counterculture?).
Seals is the mad prophet, Crofts an id-propelled cannonball.
But what really smacks here is the marketing position, the message. Just what every music buyer wants. Membership to the safe far edge of decency. A chance to wade in the deep end of a well-cholrinated swimming pool.
It's effective. It penetrates. Fans of James Iovine take note. This is an Interscope precursor.
