Always liked their debut best cover-wise, but Moving Pictures features a nice and rather clever cover aswell (a photograph of people moving pictures! I love wordplay).

I love the humor and irony of Moving Pictures. Just a great play on words.

Quite hard this one. Rush album covers aren't amongst my favourites.
They have had some good ones though.
 Although 'Fly By Night' is my least favourite Rush album, I do like the cover. Also, I like 'Presto' & 'Roll The Bones', both musically and coverwise.
In the end, though, I voted for Caress Of Steel. I think it goes with the music really well. Smile

Caress of steel for me. The color tone on that is striking. Same thing goes for grace under pressure but not as striking in the forms as it is in the coloring. wish I could vote.

I heard that. Some one should do a poll on album cover lands you would kill to visit. Like Roger Dean landscapes ( well you could do a whole poll on just his landscapes) ,the cover to foxtrot, Tarkus,moody blues Seventh sojourn, Santana Caravanserai, too many for me to think of and not miss some great ones. Lnadscape covers are truly in thier own class.
