Cover art

The cover art was created by Art & Language based on "War" by Jackson Pollock. It's overlapped by a reproduction of the soviet mosaic that inspired "The Milkmaid".

"War" by Jackson Pollock, 1947
Milkmaid by Aleksandr Deyneka, 1962
"Gustave Courbet's 'Burial at Ornans'; Expressing States of Mind that are Vivid and Compelling" by Art & Language, 1981^[1]

Reviews

Adventuring into Basketry

1981^[2]

Allegedly attracting 'disco action', the first 45 for over a year is a gloriously brutal bass maze. The 'Milkmaid' coupling doubles its justification for singularity, but invest in the wonderful 'Kangaroo?' LP instead.
