That photo on the top left reminds me of something I was meaning to do: get some Cliff Richard in my CD collection. Might even get some stuff by The Shadows as well. Why not?

..... Blue & Lonesome was cut quick and so was the cover ....
Maybe it is unimaginative but that B&L cover sure stands out in store
CD/Album racks and window displays etc... You can spot it from miles off and probably that's what they meant the cover to do ....

Agree, and personally I love the cover. And puzzling to me, even though I like the cover, I don't really get why anyone cares that much. I hate the Crosseyed Heart cover but love the album!
I also find it funny that some think the B&L cover is just 'blue' ... it is not. There is a cool pixelating flow into the purplish mix, often used in many of today's marketing logos. Mick was always up on marketing, I am sure that was intentional.

It's saying the 28th of this month, I thought it was coming out this Friday.
There's a pic of the front cover of the single on amazon uk.
Gotta get a grip roughly written over a newspape page,it's hard to read but it looks like it's written over the lyrics to the song I think.
