Emancipation -- does cover matter?

I'm looking to replace my Emancipation CDs (long, sad story). Looking around, I've found one at a decent price but with different cover art (not the "slave"). Are there 2 versions of this floating around (possibly one clean and one vintage Princely)? Or does it not matter and P was just expressing his artistic side with various covers. I don't want the wrong one...

What's on the cover of the one you found? The "Slave" picture was on the inside of mine, and the cover was the fists breaking the chains.

That's what I get for buying the first one used! The "inside" cover was the only cover I knew of. Idiot me thought it was supposed to be that way, to be "different." The one with the fists is on the cover of the one I'm looking at now. Thanks, guys.
