... but does anyone know the significance of the person on the "Stop Me" sleeve? I heard that the hand to the right of the photo is James Dean's.

Basic info is given on Passions, but I heard from a friend that this individual has something to do with the Moors Murders. Is he delusional? (i think so)

I think that you are thinking of the cover of The Smiths Best Of I (US version) and the cover of the complete picture (again, US version.)
James Dean was only in a three movies if memory serves me correctly: East Of Eden, Rebel Without A Cause and Giant. He definitely was not in The Family Way (which is where the Murray Head picture comes from.)

As far as I know, your friend is delusional. Murray Head has nothing to do with the Moors Murders. I think Morrissey likes him primarily for his role in The Family Way, and not for his song "One Night In Bangkok."
