Bluejeans Original Cover Art

Pamela Des Barres has recently posted a couple of photos on her Facebook site that visitors to the Radar Station might like to see.

Apparently she came across one of Victor Hayden’s original paintings in her garage. Not just any painting … this one was the original artwork for the Bluejeans and Moonbeams album cover.

Miss Pamela acts as an agent for Victor’s artwork and she is considering what to do with this painting, in other words the best way of selling it.

A closer look at the painting.

The album itself may well not be the most popular in Don’s discography but the cover was wonderfully strange.

John French recalls Don saying

the album sucks, but at least I got THIS on the cover!

I’ve got a birthday coming up if anyone wants to treat me!!
