Overlooking how this British blues-rock outfit ever got signed to Stax (as if a soul label would have a clue in terms of how to market the band), the J. Edward Barker cover illustration probably didn't help non-existent sales. Mickey Mouse's deviant brother offering the buyer a tab of LSD soaked cheese ? I've always found the grinning mouse kind of disconcerting.
