Which celebs are on the WYW sleeve?
I'd say Marilyn Monroe and Humprey Bogart. Who are all the others?

The man on the left with the camera looks a bit like Sid James.

It looks like a lookalikes convention, they all resemble somebody but not close enough to have to pay image rights, it's nearly Bogart and Monroe, the girl in the front looks like a lot of Hollywood starlets, Veronica Lake, Betty Davies et al and the kid resembles a typical all American with a bit of MAD's Alfred E Neuman chucked in.

Never liked the cover. First impressions were that they were being clever, and too clever for me as I didn't get it at all...
I suppose it influenced the famous album, didn't that that either!
WYW is my least favourite cover from the dog to NTL era

Something strangely creepy about it, like, you look out of the tour bus and there are all these faces which look slightly familiar but not ... I mean, I really feel like I recognise that red haired girl, but have no idea where from.

An absolutely awful cover. Fantastic album though, it's a gnats cock away from bring a classic Quo album for me.
