When Bow Wow Wow moved to RCA Records, controversy followed them over to their new label. The album cover of their debut studio album, See Jungle! See Jungle! Go Join Your Gang Yeah, City All Over! Go Ape Crazy! (1981) depicted the band recreating Édouard Manet's Le Déjeuner sur l'herbe (1863), with a then fourteen-year-old Lwin posing nude.
Photographed by Andy Earl, the cover caused outrage that led to an investigation by Scotland Yard, instigated by Lwin's mother. Undeterred, the band used the same photo on the cover of their follow-up extended play (EP) The Last of the Mohicans (1982), and the sleeve of the "Go Wild in the Country" single.
