I would not be surprised if you knew every single reference. lol

I love the breadth of it--The Beatles and Elephant Man on the same map. Very cool.

It's a very good concept.

Too bad more artists don't put more thought into their covers.

I agree. Just to clarify, the first post is the original artwork on which the Saint Etienne album cover was based. The band saw that illustration and asked the artists to create a similar one for them using only their musical influences:

Have you tried to hold down the "control" button and using the roller on the mouse? Will increase the size.

Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.
