Who is the guy on the cover of the album?

Just some model picked for the shoot?

David Bowie??

It’s Mick Jagger.

The inner sleeve shows Keith Richards.

I’m not at home so I can’t check, but isn’t Keef on the back cover, and the inner sleeve shows a goat’s hoof? (Insert “how can you tell the difference” joke here.)

I stand corrected, Keef IS on the back cover. The goat is on the inner sleeve (remember those?).

That’s the best Mick has looked in years.

As best as my 25 y.o. memory serves, the front picture is of ???, the back is Jagger, and the inner sleeve is the hoof/high heel shoe on one side and a Moire Pattern on the other.
