Sphynx Xitintoday
The album includes a nice booklet with detailed description for each track. Lots of pictures. It's more the booklet than the cover I like. Plus of course the music. One of the best prog albums ever made. Wonderful to listen to by candlelight with a cup of slightly spiced tea .

Bigger pictures are available by clicking on each cover

You should have photographed the Hawkwind cover from both sides. It looks like a shield from the other side.

Yeah - and the Glastonbury Fayre album has all kinds of amazing pictures in the booklets and when you turn the sleeve over

Brainstorm - Smile A While CD album cover

One of the worst album covers ever. Even worse than ELP "Love Beach".

Why are you putting a "worst album cover" into this "Favourite LP covers thread" ????

The thread is titled "LP Covers" and not "Best LP Covers".

The cheap solution: Rega planar 3

With a good moving coil, smokes virtually all numeric sources!
