I don't understand it, that is so ridiculous, but that's very typical of the US. She even had to censor the same tattoo on the Grammy Night 08.

Btw, is that the official cover of Back To Black in the States? It's even better than the original. I've always loved that picture, she looks stunning.

But I do like the UK cover because the strange chalkboard behind her tells a story, along with her posture. I've always thought that was a intriguing and unusual album cover.

I'm from the US, so I've always known about the cover and yes it's very stupid of our government to censor something as silly as a tattoo. I actually like the US cover better because it's iconic to me and you can clearly tell that sees paying respects to The Ronettes & the whole early 60s thing.

Agreed. It's funny. I just noticed this last week when I was filing a few records at the shop I work at. I have my U.K. copy (with the cover of her on the chair) in store that I'll play every so often. I always get remarks as if it's a new posthumous release or not. Crazy. I think I personally like the U.K. cover better. Don't know why, although, I do think it's odd seeing a picture of her without the beehive that's associated with Back To Black.
