This was likely the Durutti Column's first album.

Wikipedia sez:

The Return of the Durutti Column is the debut album by The Durutti Column. It was originally released in 1980 on Factory Records and the original 2 000 LP sleeves were made of sandpaper, allegedly assembled by Ian Curtis.

Had a look through all of Chicaco's covers, and amazingly I believe they have never used textile material for them, or have they?

I mean, they have used wood, even chocolate, but I believe no textiles.
