Perhaps one of Matthews' best-loved images? Commissioned in 1985 by FM Records on behalf of Magnum. The content suggestion came from Magnum’s Tony Clarkin. The Tavern’s interior is reminiscent of The George Inn at Norton St. Phillip, near Matthews' former home in Somerset. Background details include two of Matthews' previous album covers for the band, whilst his own dog Patch is under the table. The artwork, which was required urgently, was completed in just 10 days!
