The cover/j-card of The Grateful Dead's "Live/Dead" cassette on the 747 Music Tapes label from Saudi Arabia (date unknown). Note the censors' slightly altered artwork: the woman's blue gown now modestly covers her otherwise revealing cleavage.

Sure it's missing "Feedback" and "Death Don't Have No Mercy" . . . but still I'd love to know how King Faisal made sense of this thing.
