    Yes, that was Voco - he was a DJ at a freeform rock station in San Francisco at the time (1972, I think it was?).

    1. It is Jimmy Scott's record, but the man and woman are shown getting buck-wild to Ray Charles, with his albums scattered casually on the floor. (Well, it's a given since he owned the label and likely produced the album...) At least the chick on the cover of that Meters record was listening to both the band and the producer (Allen Toussaint).
