A sheath for the record's jacket, that's what makes this cover so remarkable different. The (rockin') duck-shaped outer cover, holds the actual cover of the record. You can't get the record out, without removing the duck first. While the band member's names will be displayed (front) when the duck is removed, the back contains a photographic collage of the artists. It's a very special gimmick for an absolutely outstanding album. Comedy at it's best, presented by members of the legendary 'Bonzo's' and the Scaffold.
