The youngest looking of all the Jandek photos. Well composed and fresh faced.
A basement perhaps? A lamp harp or cord in the upper left makes a crude noose, it would almost look like a film scratch if it wasn't for the shadow it casts on the wall behind.
The window curtains are drawn. There is a vent overhead in the acoustical ceiling that would indicate some sort of modern central heating (inconsistent with the very old exteriors of the houses).Track Listing:
Album Cover Description
A very young (teenage?) Jandek stands wearing a somewhat disheveled white button up shirt and... a solid body electric guitar! An important cover, because it shows that Jandek has been playing music since a relatively early age. He appears to be in a basement with a very low ceiling, though there's a window behind him, curtains halfway drawn, but it could be one of those basement window well windows. Jandek's facial expression is blank, perhaps slightly startled. -- Seth Tisue
