Indeed, quite an uninspired album cover. I realize the tongue logo is quite iconic and recognizable and I'm quite a fan of it, but much like my feelings about Blue and Lonesome's cover, the choice is quite uninspired and lacking in imagination. Luckily the contents of both Blue and Lonesome and El Mocambo are far more inspired than the album art packaging such inspiration.

Yeah totally uninspired, and not a fan of the neon sign/Vegas look of the tongue which is a bit kitschy.

ok so what do we want the cover art to look like
The tongue and lips logo! Maybe shades of one solid color!

Can't judge a book by it's cover though, and no doubt this is something most of us fans have always wanted. Is it the Holy Grail? Certainly not, but definitely a keeper.

Just Googled stones elmocombo and searched photos. Saw a pic of jagger with guitar. What song would he had played guitar on with the known set list?
And thinking about it he played guitar on fingerprint file in 1975, didn't play any guitar on the 76 tour nor knebworth, I beleive

A confession: I haven't bought a vinyl album for 30 years (the last one was, by the way, MAIN OFFENDER). But I feel tempted now... This might be the best archive release since SOME GIRLS LIVE IN TEXAS DVD. And it asks a vinyl listening experience... (so, it is like three songs per side... Ouch, that wasn't like in the old days... Unless you were some damn prog band).

i have the vinyl for some girls texas and it's awesome if you get the el mocambo you should track that down too
well worth it
I am sure it is. Actually I have a fear that if I buy this album, I will buy some others too. And soon I will be back in the old game, wondering where the hell I store all this stuff... Once an addict, always an addict...

Does it feel like you've got bugs crawling all over your body yet? Yeah, it's starting.
