Now, I'm ready for a little list of my faves, both concerning the music and the artwork, as I can't really separate them - but not necessarily artwork seen in relation to the music (unranked): Osibisa - Osibisa (1970) Osibisa - Woyaya (1971) Assagai - Zimbabwe (1971, not on PA) Greenslade - Bedside Manners.. (1973) Budgie - Never Turn Your Back on a Friend (1973)

I like much the two Osibisa covers (from their first two albums), and the one of Assagai's album Zimbabwe. Edited by David_D - March 12 2023 at 09:14 |

I'd say , in no order, Yessongs, Yesshows, Tales, CTTE, Badger and the two Ossibisa =================== Not a fans of Heep artworks (Dean or others) and Greenslade artworks (includes solo), and actually dislike Asia's (Aria is OK and Arena is just "interesting", though)Edited by Sean Trane - March 12 2023 at 16:49 |

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

My list could be quite similar, although I would prefer Demons and Wizards over the Magician's Birthday. I'm not that convinced by the ABWH album cover and prefer, for example, the Steve Howe Album one, and Close to the Edge (inner gatefold painting, but the green outside cover is quite exceptional too). And I would mention Greenslade's self-titled album - great album and great cover!

Hard for me to say but I would probably go with Asia - Asia and then Relayer followed by Topographic Oceans

His work his strongly associated with prog, most notably Yes. There was a comment in the thread on the upcoming new Yes album that cover was not particularly good in the eyes of the commentator. So what are your faves? For me, they tend to be the one that associate well with the music of the album as well as the anesthetics of the art.
1. Yes - Fragile 2. Yes - Drama 3. Yes - Relayer 4. Gentle Giant - Octopus 5. Uriah Heap - The Magician's Birthday 6. Asia - Asia 7. Yes - Tales from the Topographic Ocean 8. Osibisa - Osibisa 9. Third Ear Band - Music from Macbeth 10. Anderson Bruford Wakeman and Howe
