Remember Those Fabulous Sixties?

"COVER: The exact meaning of this month's cover is unclear, but if you play it backwards, there are some interesting hints about Paul. Its title is: 'It's Going to Be the Very Next Craze' (see above). It was painted by Gilbert Stone, who did the latest Band album jacket, which makes him okay with us, because we're all into album jackets (see above)." [The cover, in a rather halucinatory style, shows a young hipster passing the viewer a smoldering banana. In case you are too young to get the joke, during the sixties there was a widespread false rumor that smoking banana skins would get you high.--MS]
