Bubbles had previously designed a tour poster for Hawkwind and the band were so enamored with the work, they elected to adopted it for their 1975 album "Road Hawks".
It may not be the prettiest cover I've ever encountered, but I just love the work's art deco feel.
Rather than spending a lot of time on Bubbles' sad and troubled career, anyone interested can start with a nice career overview on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barney_Bubbles
