We were on Capitol Records, managed by Seger's manager. That album cover showed up on a tv show, too. 'Too Close for Comfort' with Ted Knight, but they used the front cover on that show. A palm tree with sand and a rhino running across. In the movie, the blonde girl is holding a stack of albums in a radio station with ours on top. I'm the guy with the curly hair and moostache, lower right(?) corner. We also did 4 shows with U2 on their first American tour. If you google the name 'Barooga' or 'Barooga Bandit', there are some articles from Boston newspapers about the U2 shows there.
