The woman on the cover of the 12″ looks very familiar. Had she starred in a movie or anything similar? She looks a bit like Madeline Kahn (back in the early 80s)…maybe I am thinking of her role in the movie Clue. But part of me says no, it’s not the likeness to Madeline…this woman was also seen in some other fashion.
Thanks in advance if you know!
Thanks Paul.
