I think most likely Barry doesn't like a woman with a weapon in her lap. But I had never noticed how grubby she is before you pointed it out! Or the possibility of an extra leg! But glad you enjoyed the music!Quote:

Edit: I thought I'd give it a play, but the bloody thing's vanished :( Trouble with alphabetical filing, if it goes in the wrong place you're screwed.
So this one next:

That isn't dirt, they are tattoos - thought it might be the design on her tights but you can see it carries on to her knee, past where her tights end.Quote:

You did put me onto that Caroline Lavelle album before, I think - I said I had never heard of her then realised she sings on some tracks by Sleepthief - an artist I love!Quote:

The image is not clear enough for me to see one way or the other. Anyway aren't tights designed to cover the feet, go up the legs and end at the waist? Are there tights which have a pattern on the lower legs only and stopping at the knees?
Being a bit of an obsessive, I 'Googled' it, and all reviews of 'Boys for Pele' state that it is dirt on her legs on the cover photograph. The image is supposed to show Tori Amos as a 'dust bowl' period farmer; however to be accurate it should be a shotgun on her lap and not a rifle with a telescopic sight.
I agree it's dirt - if you look at the Amazon listing it zooms in - I think she is wearing tights covered in mud. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Boys-Pele-D.../dp/B01LYV9CQP
You're right, muddy tights.Quote:
