cover of new bootleg

Subject: cover of new bootleg

   Could IED describe a little more fully what this ancient astronaut
lighthouse thing on the new bootleg cover really looks like? It sounds
like it might conceivably be a martello tower. There are a bunch of
them scattered on cliffs around the Irish coast, built to withstand an
invasion by Napoleon (!)
   The most famous one, near Dublin, was lived in by James Joyce for
several months and is the setting for the first chapter of Ulysses.
   Just sounds like an appropriate kind of thing to put on a Kate
cover, but I haven't seen the actual picture.
