Who's the kid with E.C. on the Brutal Youth album cover?

Post by Stuart Gardner »

I've never known, and this has always irked me because I suspect it's something most serious fans knew years ago.
Thanks.

Wasn't it some childhood friend of his? Thought I read that.

A friend "who eventually moved back to Trinidad," apparently named Gordon.

From reading the topic I thought Joel is the child on the cover and Gordon is the child in the booklet.
Who’s this kid with his mumbo jumbo?
