[edit] Album covers
If You Can Believe Your Eyes and Ears is one of the few albums to have three separate covers. The first cover featured the group in a bathroom sitting in a bathtub with a toilet in the corner. The album with this cover was pulled from stores after the toilet was declared indecent. The remaining covers featuring the toilet have since become collector's items. A second album cover was then released with a scroll over the toilet listing the hit songs in the album. A third album cover was later released with a closely cropped shot of the band surrounded by a black border that removed any hint that the picture was taken in a bathroom.
