One of the benefits of buying the 20th Anniversary vinyl of Paul’s Boutique is owning the 8-foot-long wraparound cover. Friend Nik and I were checking it out today and decided to see if we could find the same street corner on Google Maps. This is something I’m sure somebody else has thought of, but we didn’t know. Anyway, It’s only because of the super size album that I could see the cross-street is Ludlow and Rivington. Paul’s Boutique is long gone, now replaced by Three Monkeys Shish Ke Bab. (That probably wouldn’t be a good name for an album). We were able to match architecture and see what had changed, and what had not. If you have your old vinyl (or the new one, for $23.99! $17.99!!!) spend a few minutes playing spot the difference.
