I always assumed that:
Old Guy = John L. Nelson Surgeon = Dr. Fink Tamborine Guy = Bobby Z. Bra Girl = Wendy Ice-Cream Girl = Brown Mark Cloud-Suit Guy = Prince Violin Girl = Lisa I thought that the three figures in robes may have been Taja Sevelle, Jill Jones and Susannah Melvoin. I don't know. Who sang back-up on The Ladder? Was it Taja, Jill and Susannah or was it Sheila? I can't remember and I'm not home. No rotten internet access at my parent's house! I'm "between homes" at the moment, so I'm using the net at work! Waiting for a mortgage to reach completion. Very stressy. | |

The one dressed in black with the tambourine looks more like Wendy to me. Even though the bra n skirt lady looks like her in the RB video, the face and hair on the whitefaced one look just like her. The Normal Whores Club | |

Ok - there is only one character on this album cover that I am 100% absolutely certain of - Prince is the one in the wight hood in the trio at the back. Get yourself a look at a big picture, or a vinyl cover - it is a very accurate drawing of Prince. Really, check it out. ...we have only scratched the surface of what the mind can do...

Indeed Funk Mistress - there is much credence to the theory that the band members are clothed differently.
The cloud suit guy looks nothing like Prince. And the girl in black has Wendy's moody/sultry look, in my opinion. Yet, the girl next to her is wearing Wendy's outfit from the RB video. ...we have only scratched the surface of what the mind can do...

My chronology is suffering here though - is it Brown Mark (I thought it was too late) or is it Miko (though, I thought this might be a little early!)?!!
As I said at the beginning, one of my favourite covers - fascinating. ...we have only scratched the surface of what the mind can do...
