The inside of the “Tommy” album. The original by The Who. The one with the blue cover with diamond shapes. I’m thinking of the pictures inside. I lost my vinyl album years ago and I have always wanted to see one of the pictures on the inside again. The one I mean is a big, tall building, lit up from below, at night. It’s darn creepy, like Russian 30’s propaganda art, and I would love to see it again. I’ve looked and looked online and have seen other pictures inside, even found the name of the artist, but not this one of the building. Anyone know what I mean, where I could find it? ---

It’s not technically part of the cover, it was in the booklet that came with the album.
