I keep finding new details... like...who is Mr. upside down on the Jim Beam can?

Slightly crushed Jim Beam Bourbon and Cola can inside a broken, arrow-shaped light fixture. The can has a mysterious, upside down portrait on the front.

I like to think Miles would've loved this album, but unfortunately he missed it by a bit over a month.
