And it is true that MK does NOT appear in any of the album (solo or DS)  front covers, except live at the BBC. 


So you think they used a model for OES?

Depends on who was cheaper!

Boots were not even MK's size! Who cares, really. If the face is not thee, it can be anyone, even a robot, or spare body parts, heavily airbrushed.
Come on, it is not funny anymore.

According to conspiracy theories, this model it's been in use instead of sir Paul until today. And his name is Billy Shears...

there are 2 "different" things (although linked) :

1) the very well known "Paul is dead" hoax, with the Billy Shears substitution, all the "clues" on sleeves and in songs lyrics, etc...
2) the REAL fact that on the picture below, it's indeed NOT Paul who is back, because he wasn't present for this photo session, so he was replaced by a model. And among many other facts, this one served and maybe helped to start the famous hoax

But what a strange idea to use a model's back when front looks so genuinely the same as the original  ;D



(note the visible OPD - aka Officially Pronounced Dead).

He blew his mind out in a car
He didn't notice that the lights had changed
A crowd of people stood and stared
They'd seen his face before
Nobody was really sure
If he was from the House of Lords



Or on this unused shot you can see Paul's blooded Rickenbaker

ah the eternal debate : should we let the discussion "flow" or should we start another topic each time someone quotes a more "general" theme, (but linked with a former comment)

sorry for my disgression about Macca, I will start another topic in the general discussion section  :)

This is because of the lack of information about the new record... we really need some announcements  ;D

Maybe a sample would be nice!  We had Redbud Tree a wee while before the Privateering album was released...

I guess they will sell it to us as christmas gifts during december.. one song every week or so.. also information about releases, boxes, editions and stuff would be very welcome to brighten up these dark "flagpole days" a little bit..
