bradfieldscottv, No one cares what you think about Ali and bullshit wars started by rich people to get richer.

Faron Musser, hero? He literally let someone beat his brains to pulp for money. What good did it do him. Police , military and firefighters those are heros. They put their lives on line for the greater good.

Muhammad Ali was the only one not associated with movie/ arts..

Jacqueline Tattam

Great question!

Robert Mccoid

Maybe in future the person setting the question could actually mention cover in the question

Naturally Ali wouldn't allow his picture for free. They have to pay him a handsome price for it.

Howard Groopman

Had a 50% chance because I knew West and Brando are on the cover. And I guessed right.

Chris Braid

Have to admit that I sneaked a peek at the album before answering, just to be sure!

Hard Question

It is ironic that Ali is not on the cover . He met them in 1964,and they both shared intelligence,and wit, but even more so they were politically aligned with one another . I can’t remember who the boxer is on cover, but thinking possibly Sonny Liston. I used to live in Woodside ,California in early seventies . Met Shirley Temple on a few occasions, as she was a close friend of one of my friends parents. I can’t believe I never asked her to sign my Sgt Pepper covers , but who knew the significance that long ago. By the way ,she is on the cover more times than anyone else, I mentioned that to her, but she already knew that, I think it’s like in four places on cover.
