ROCK & ROLL COVERS

As you scan your local newsstand, the September issue of Architectural Digest catches your eye. Can it be? Yes, it is! That's David Bowie, outfitted in a cute little sarong, adorning the cover of the tony bible of interior design. From his Indonesian-style home on the Caribbean isle of Mustique, which also claims Princess Margaret and Mick Jagger as residents, Bowie says, ''I think Mustique is Duchampian-it will always provide an endless source of delight.'' Yeah, boogie, Dave! We love it when the mainstream press taps into rock & roll, even the oh-so-elegant world of a David Bowie, and we can only hope that more magazines will slap rockers on the cover. Here are stars (and stories) we'd love to see: *PSYCHOLOGY TODAY Axl Rose (''Exploring the Rocker's Inner Child'') *CARDIOLOGY Billy Ray Cyrus (''Cholesterol Means an Achy Breaky Heart'') *PARENTING Courtney Love and Kurt Cobain (''Uh-oh, Baby's Crying'') *GUNS & AMMO Jerry Lee Lewis (''My Greatest Hits'') *MODERN MATURITY Luther Campbell (''100 Party Jokes'') *NEW ENGLAND JOURNAL OF MEDICINE Keith Richards (''How I Get Up in the Morning'') *SEVENTEEN Wilson Phillips (''What to Do if Your Folks Go Weird on You'') *FITNESS Sir Mix-A-Lot (''Don't Work That Butt Too Much'') *SELF Barbra Streisand (''My Favorite Subject'') *PREVENTION The Cure (''Yes, But What's the Disease?'') *GQ Neil Young (''In Search of the Perfect Flannel Shirt'') *PENTHOUSE FORUM Barry White (''O-o-o-o-ooh, Baby, I Love You, Baby'').
