Cover Art - Not original for DP
I just saw the cover for the S&M show in Athens Sep 26, 1991. It is very similar in concept to the ROTD cover. The Acropolis is shown very clearly and its reflection in a pool of water is all twisted.
You can view it (as well as covers for ALL bootlegs for DP and Rainbow) at this site:

Click on the 90s for DP and scroll down to Sep 26, 1991. There are 2 entries. Check out the Front for: Athens Greece 1991.

I cant really see that, it is rippled in the water, not twisted.
Also no one standing, or indeed no trees.
Then again maybe my imagination is going twisted!!!!

Re: Cover Art - Not original for DP
And in ROTD, isn't the image in the water 'straight' as opposed to the man himself, who is twisted?
A very nice bootleg cover, Joe!

Re: Cover Art - Not original for DP
Hi - I did not make that cover.
I see twisted columns in the reflection in the water. And straight columns looking at the Parthenon itself.
The *concept* is similar to the ROTD cover.
They are obviously not identical. <g>

Re: Cover Art - Not original for DP
I'm neutral on the cover...I'm just glad they didn't go back to some quasi Dungeons and Dragons crud like they put TBRO.
