I got send a link to this website for some band, and on the cover of their CD one of the guys looks like he's wearing a wested. What do you guys think?

As soon as I saw it I thought 'that has to be a wested...'

It took me awhile to notice the jacket. I was too busy trying to read the words on the woman's top.
But I don't think the jacket is a Wested. Check out the front pockets. They're slits only - not sewn on with flaps.

I can't really see the pockets clearly, but you may be right. It was just my first reaction to it - from side in it looks very much like my goatskin wested.

No, not a wested. It has the slant zippered pockets, and no pleats. Check the big fold below his shoulder. With a fold like that, I think the pleat would be popped open and visible.
FYI that's a New York Dolls shirt she's wearing..... QUITE WELL, I might ad

Sadly, that's not a Wested. It's also a shame to see such an attractive young woman being so unsophisticated. It's sad to see someone with no class whatsoever, no matter how attractive they are.

You've been hit by some strange disease causing you to see westeds everywhere.
I have the same disease too.
However this is not one.
Notice the belt at the back (strip of leather held by buttons)

I've got to second that my friend. Everytime I see a girl like that I hear one of the Three Stooges saying, "What's the matter with you? Ain't you got no scruples?"
