Photographer Ken Regan posed the "satanic majesties" of rock backstage in San Francisco and Los Angeles, but the cover did not appear: it was bumped by one on George McGovern taking over the Democratic Party.

...play with devastating effect. Throughout his career his detached management style made him depend heavily on his senior advisers. After his 1984 electoral triumph, his fatigued White House staff needed relief.
