Album Artwork
The CD cover is a spoof on
Andy Warhol 's album cover for "The Velvet Underground and Nico " (1967) byThe Velvet Underground . Instead of featuring a banana with the words "peel slowly and see", it instead depicts anavocado with the accompanying phrase "mush slowly and guac."References
