well explained but i would like to add the lower field is clearly labeled alternate cover the definition of alternate as used here is a substitute an alternative one designated to take the place of another the group shot cover was designed specifically to replace the original controversial cover as the referenced commentary in the article clearly describes this makes the group shot unquestionably the alternate cover even if it is more common recent the same goes for albums like light a fire and yesterday and today so no matter whether we can assert prove which version is more common it is blatantly obvious which cover is the alternate indeed the controversy caused by the original cover and the subsequent switch to the alternate is the entire subject of the article's commentary how there is even a question of which image belongs in which field is absolutely boggling to me
