Album Cover Description

Teenage Jandek stands in a barnyard. His hair is cropped short; the photo looks roughly contemporaneous with the Lost Cause cover photo. Bales of hay are stacked in the barn and a cat is emerging from the barn door. Jandek's wearing a gray cardigan sweater and the lapel points of his white shirt are sticking out. His hands are in his pockets. I'm guessing from the setting and from the relatively formal clothes that this photo might have been taken during a holiday visit to a farmer relative. -- Seth Tisue
