I finally managed to get me one of those really hard to obtain Art Thieme Kicking Mule 148 LPs (Songs Of The Heartland) and added pics of the front and back cover of this album to my Art Thieme discography at http://www.wirz.de/music/thieme.htm
I guess you seldomly have the opportunity to have a look at one really slim Art Thieme !

(Art Thieme 13 Aug 02 - 11:04 AM: "The cover showed a photo of me on the very day, after a serious year-long diet, I'd lost 100 pounds. K.M. needed a photo for the back and they went into their archives for one. When the album came out the photo on the back was 100 pounds heavier than the one on the front cover. That makes the album exceptionally heavy and I can't lift it to put it in a scanner. ;-) ")
