We've been mulling over a list of artists who have stripped themselves back to their bare bones in the name of (cover) art... from Bow Wow Wow's classic recreation of Manet's The Luncheon On The Grass, featuring singer Annabella Lwin, to John and Yoko's stark Two Virgins, to Julian Cope's typically odd Fried and the Manics' Generation Terrorists... not to mention most of Janet Jackson's albums.

Any other suggestions of ill-advised strips or bare-faced cheek?
