Fantasy reissued "Blues Over Bodega" in 2000 using the original cover shot. They changed the color scheme to various shades of brown, but that is the picture from the original LP cover. Inside the booklet is the same photo of Lu from the back of the LP. The photo shows Lu being backed up by The Murphy Band of the period. The photo was taken at the site of the protest, and you can see some of the balloons that were released. Turk's band was supposed to be on the record but Turk backed out at the last minute over some kind of disagreement and a new band was hastily put together. At least that's the story I got from Bob Helm. Ted Shafer used an Ed Lawless picture of Lu for the cover when he reissued the LP in the 70's.
