Send us Fan Mail What do you get when you mix Eric Clapton, a photographer haunted by his last shoot, and a spaceship that might be a metaphor—or something far weirder? You get Blind Faith—a band, an album, and an album cover that still makes people squirm. In this episode, we tell the story of how a chance subway encounter, an unrealized promise of a horse, and a very different 1969 sensibility led to one of rock’s most infamous images. It’s a lot.
