Appeared on the sleeve of official releases or the photographer credited. Generally chosen and designed by Morrissey. The following WEA releases with sleeve cover stars are known to have been chosen and designed without Morrissey's involvement: * [[How Soon Is Now? (single)]] (Vanessa Redgrave and David Hemmings) * [[There Is A Light That Never Goes Out (single)]] (Sandie Shaw) * [[Best...I]] ("Biker Couple" by Dennis Hopper) * [[...Best II]] ("Biker Couple" by Dennis Hopper) * [[Singles]] (Photo of Diana Dors from previously unused artwork) * [[The Very Best Of The Smiths]] (Charles Hawtrey) From [[Morrissey Missed The Bus - Q Magazine (November 2001)]]: <blockquote> '''Did you have any say in the release of this year's The Smiths' Greatest Hits?'''<br> None at all. I've never been involved in any post-Rough Trade UK release, so it's distressing when people attribute those awful WEA sleeves to me - the hellish things I'm forced to suffer... This latest one must really be the final nail: horrific sleeve, title misspelt on artwork, wrong publishing information... had to buy the CD on import in order to hear the remastering! I cried. Remarkably, no one at Warner Music was sacked! I believe it reached Number 31? Too high, if you ask me. </blockquote> ==Cover stars on multiple releases== * [[Richard Davalos]] is the cover star of [[Strangeways, Here We Come]], [[The Complete Picture]] (US), [[Best...I]] (US) and [[...Best II]] (US) * [[Viv Nicholson]] is the cover star of [[Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now (single)|Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now]], [[Barbarism Begins At Home (single)|Barbarism Begins At Home]] and [[The Headmaster Ritual (single)|The Headmaster Ritual]] (CD) * [[Shelagh Delaney]] is the cover star of [[Louder Than Bombs]] and [[Girlfriend In A Coma (single) | Girlfriend In A Coma]] * [[Cornelius Carr]] is the cover star of [[Sweet And Tender Hooligan (single)|Sweet And Tender Hooligan]] and [[World Of Morrissey]]
