Street Survivors

Anyone remember the Street Survivor album cover with the flames, and the story?

The original cover sleeve for Street Survivors had featured a photograph of the band standing on a city street with all its buildings engulfed in flames, some near the center nearly obscuring Steve Gaines's face. After the plane crash, this cover became highly controversial. Out of respect for the deceased (and at the request of Teresa Gaines, Steve's widow), MCA Records withdrew the original cover and replaced it with a similar image of the band against a simple black background, which was on the back cover of the original sleeve. An urban legend has long claimed that only those band members touched by flame in the photograph were killed in the crash, but this is not true (flame appears to touch nearly all band members).[8] Thirty years later, for the deluxe CD version of Street Survivors, the original "flames" cover was restored.

Any of y’all that are fans of the band and ever traveling through Amite and Pike county Mississippi the tribute monument at the crash site is worth stopping at. It’s off Hwy 568 between Magnolia and Gillsburg.
