ABOUT THE RECORD Get Lucky (Picture Disc), by Loverboy, reached No. 7 on the Billboard 200 album chart, remaining on the chart for over two years, and has sold over 4 million copies in the United States. It featured the singles Working for the Weekend, When It's Over, Lucky Ones, and Take Me to the Top. According to Scott Smith's notes on the Greatest Hits album Big Ones, the song Take Me to the Top is actually the demo version "complete with out of tune bass" because the band couldn't quite capture the sound in the studio. The cover of the album depicts the posterior of someone wearing tight red leather pants, with a man's arm and hand in the foreground with index and middle finger crossed. The model wearing the leather pants was 11-year-old Jason Keller, brother of photographer Steven Keller who shot the cover. The photo credit on the album stated "Bottom by: J.K.", which was sometimes interpreted as the publishing shorthand for the term just joking. The use of red leather pants originated from Reno selecting a few items from a leather shop owned by the husband of the band manager's publicist. Until 2014, various claims about the identity of the person wearing the leather pants were made. These included Mike Reno, the band's lead singer, who "just went along with" such claims, and Paul Dean, both of whom wore red leather pants during the concert tour for the album. At other times, both were ambiguous about the identity of the model. In a 2012 interview, Reno stated that the model was the photographer's brother, a claim repeated in a 2013 interview. CBC Music confirmed the identity of the model in an interview with Steven Keller in August 2014. According to Keller, his stylist found only one pair of red leather pants while shopping in Akron, Ohio before the photo shoot in 1981. They fit none of the band members or models on the set. At home later that day, his brother returned from school, saw the pants, and asked to try them. They fit him, and Keller decided to use him as the model. It is unknown whose hand and arm are in the picture. The cover was chosen as one of the 50 greatest Canadian album covers by CBC Music staff in 2014.
