I noticed the album cover for Devendra Banhart's new album.In a review of the album, the author writes:
'The communal vibe is hinted at by the album's artwork: Rather than adorning the cover with his usual calligraphic scribbles, Banhart offers a composite photo of "The Family" (a term he often ascribes to his musical friends), gathered beneath a large knotty tree and accompanied by the disembodied heads of smiling spirits. Sgt. Pepper is the obvious point of departure, though unlike the Beatles' classic, there are no numbered silhouettes in the liner notes to decode the relative anonymity of the photo subjects. Fittingly, the only immediately recognizable figure is Banhart himself, crouching front and center, wings spread wide.'
So the figure in the red coat and golden crown placed prominently in the bottom left corner isn't recognisable.
Makes me feel old!
PS Apparently the American song-writer was given his first name by his parents' guru.
