COVER STORY Shari Shattuck, the lady holding the Rabbit mike so very delicately, is an Atlanta model whose extraordinarily cute tush is attributable to her years of training as a competitive ice skater. Executive Art Director Tom Staebler designed and photographed the cover and Jerry Adams styled Shari's hair. And what's Shari trying to tell you? That we've got a great music issue for you, with The Year in Music
(on page 181) and a Playboy Interview with Linda Ronstadt. Boogie!
