I love most of Storm Thorgerson's work. He's a very good photograph and he have good ideas. All the albums isn't great, but the covers is wonderful!  http://www.stormthorgerson.com/

Roger Dean is another favourite of mine. I also like the cover Andy Warhol made for "Velvet Underground & Nico" (non-prog).

When you speak, is it you that hears? Are your ears full? You can't hear anything at all.

My favourite of all time is Yes - Relayer. Psychotic Waltz's A Social Grace is incredible, too, as is Into the Everflow. Just off the top of my head, excluding Roger Dean's covers, ITCOCK and SFAM also stand out.

I quite like Origin of Symmetry by Muse, and a lot of their artwork is quite interesting. Radiohead artwork is pretty mindblowing also. Weather Report covers are quite cool (why the hell is there a hat on Heavy Weather???).
