Abbey Road, obviously.

New Boots And Panties, across the road from the old Woolworths in Vauxhall Bridge Road.

According to sleeve designer Mike Coles, this building is somewhere in Kilburn, NW London I believe...

That looks like their own private public toilet.

Ziggy Stardust.

Amon Duul POst Office Tower thing.

I think you can go on a tour round all these sites, except the toilet.

Not on the street but inside the Archway Tavern. I can vouch for the fact that it no longer looks like this because i made a pilgrimage there when I moved into the area:

Legend has it that the Elastica one was taken round the back of the first ever Morrisons Superstore in Burnley.

I don't think that george benson album is london...I'm pretty sure it's new york. Look at the liscence plates.

wordyrappington (wordyrappington), Tuesday, 12 April 2005 15:56 (twenty years ago)

So what, they could've shipped a bunch of American cars and storefronts to London for the cover shot, right?
