Ha ha, my attempt looks more like a Sarah Records single, but hey:

If there was more definition to the face and if you took one square of each colour, it would be pretty cool.

That's already better than that Liam Lynch cover.

I wonder what the guy cropped out of the image makes of it all
FWD.

I was wondering if one of the reasons why they didn't use the full picture was because they were afraid of consequences due to infringement of privacy rights or something like that. In case they were not relatives. (Unlikely, I know.)

Edit:

Or maybe he cut up the original some time ago like he did with these for the Playboys single...

Also, if you square the images off, it looks even better. Just needs more definition.

Might also help to spend more than 3 minutes on a crappy app on this. But since I don't really see the point in turning teenage bonfire Moz into a Warhol icon, I won't do that.

Pretty sure that is what Liam Lynch was going for. Without the effort of course. I mean, it's terrible.

oh dear

Don't take life so seriously PR.

It's weird because I didn't like the dog sleeve at first but have grown to like it. This one seems even more slap dash than dog was.

I don't understand why he doesn't do the design himself anymore.

I think music is the only thing he cares about these days

If that was the case, he'd upload the new tracks to bandcamp for us to purchase.

The picture that was posted on Central isn't even square, btw.

I like this! On mobile so can't get 'em together.

That is pretty cool. The header kills it though. Does Morrissey even need to put his name and the title on the cover?

The hearts should be different colours on each tile. Not the same as the main colour. Else, it's really good.

Yeah, as I said, you could do the Warhol effect 'manually' in Photoshop with individual colour schemes for each tile, which would also allow black outlines etc, but I don't feel like doing that.
These were just created with an app on my phone.

I don't understand why he doesn't do the design himself anymore.

He may have just lost interest in sleeve art. He and Jo Slee pretty much explored his style fully throughout The Smiths and onto his solo career.

Things could be worse I guess

(Although it is an odd coincidence that Lynch knocked up something that looks not dissimilar to Sam's previous efforts & skill level)

FWD.

That cover truly was the best of the best.

If only that were possible....
