That time I asked Gord Downie about the cool cover art on the Tragically Hip’s Fully Completely

By Steve Newton

This audio excerpt from my 1992 interview with Tragically Hip singer Gord Downie concerns the intriguing album-cover art for Fully Completely, which the band released less than a month before our little chat.

At the time I was still trying to make sense of the weird kind of collage that would become synonymous with one of the greatest Canadian guitar-rock albums of all time.

So I got Gord to explain it to me.
