Motorcycles on record albums, Roy Orbison


 In this case, the motorcycle relegated to the back cover... but still!

Richard Thompson's album "Rumor and Sigh" (1991) has a pic of a nice lightly modified Vincent. It's on the back of the CD cover insert, though, with the credits, notes, etc., and my thorough one-minute online search failed to find it.

Also: Steppenwolf's self-titled album (1968; the one featuring "Born to Be Wild") showed the band members on some pretty nice H-D choppers.

There: That's everything I know.

Roy Orbison and motocrossers, who'da thunk! There are quite a few motorcycles on record covers, every time I fond one I'll post it.
