Who is the man on the cover of Sumeria "Golden Tears" LP

[dj phillip esparza]

I understand the only cover A.R.Costandinos is pictured is the America LP.

Well, this is an old ass post from November 2001. I didnt even have a computrer at this time..lol. I just thought id respond because i just found it on the last page and no one ever responded.I wanted to say that i honestly think that is Alec on the cover. Simply because it looks very much like Alec in a pic i saw of him from the same year.

It looks like Chevy Chase.

Chavy Chase? not on the original French pressing release. the cover shows a futuristic triangle design on gold paper in the front cover with an interesting pop art in the inside double fold.(RAAL-2473-901)

Hey, I picked this up recently and Dotbomb is dead on. It does look like Chevy Chase circa 1978. I LOL'd at her comment. Maybe we have a different pressing. It's like the top half of his face showing and the lower part obscured by something--I'm at work, so I can't exactly tell ya.

Mix,

You and I have the same version/edition which is a very nice gatefold. Also have the US edition which Marky spoke of. I'll have to compare both later tonight to see if there is any timing or track differences.

yeah, 'Gatefold' that's the word I was looking for, I must confess I don't remember a single note off this LP, I'll listen to it again later, the first time in a Loooooong time.

I have the Casablanca one, and almost bought the french pressing, but I thought it was too expensive to be worth it... it was from a Costandinos junkie and he was offering it to me at 100 dollars. No way.

The one on Casablanca... Chevy Chase... with a golden tear, and the SUMERIA GOLDEN TEARS 'logo' pasted onto his forehead.

Excellent piece... and I wonder if it really was- go rent National Lampoon's Summer Vacation. Near the end of the movie we're treated to him in a disco suit... and he looks JUST like it. The resemblence is just too uncanny.

Does ANYBODY know with any certainty WHO the person is? Anybody? I want to know...

IMFAOF!!!!!!! Chevy Chase??? Actually, thats funny as hell cause now as i look at it i see this, LOL LOL LOL!!!!!! I have heard about this other pressing and it from what i understand is under the Love And Kisses name and the album title is "Cosmic Traveler". I would like to know if there is any longer versions of tracks on it. Plus, just for this art work and gatefold id looooove to get a copy but i never see it anywhere, not even on ebay.
