Thanks for fixing the link. Unfortunately I don't have any more info on this album cover. If I see a picture I like I save it, and as a result have a whole load of pics that I've acquired over time. Must have just been a minor modelling job that a young Nico did. That would make it late 50's at a guess. She appeared in a few commercials around 1957 and I think this must date from around then. The record company no longer exists and I cannot date the release. I just love the picture.
Can I just click and drag an image into the message box? Or do I need to upload to Image Shack and then tag the link?
You don't look like Martha and the Vandellas

Unbelievable! What's more amazing is that a woman of such class and beauty could turn into a a withered, heroin-soaked mess. Thankfully, she was still able to record amazing music...even while slowly killing herself. Too many of my idols followed the same path...
