I think what bothers people is the intentional effort to inject something like homosexuality into something like a 50-year old album that people enjoyed for the music in it.

I understand it is possible for some graphic artist commissioned to work on the new album cover, who added that just grabbed some hi-res stock graphic to work off, but I am a bit dubious about that after seeing those two images you posted.

If I were commissioned to do a high-profile piece like that, I would have made it exactly identical to the smallest possible detail I could, including the colors and numbers of colors.

Personally, I loved Pink Floyd until I unknowingly (about his politics) went to a Roger Waters concert back in 2004, and have been unable to even listen to the music anymore.

Oh I hate most of the because of their politics, but I still listen to their music sometimes. Now I mostly listen to new music such as Aaron Lewis formerly of Staind, but now does country patriotic type songs, such as:

Aaron Lewis - Am I The Only One

Aaron Lewis - I Lost It All

Here's a song when he was in Staind (He's the singer):

Staind - Something To Remind You (Live)

Roger is entitled to his political views and all, but I don’t like the way he treated Richard Wright.

Compare and contrast with Gilmour, who brought Wright back, and also was the one who made sure Syd Barrett was taken care of for the rest of his life.
