Paul Whitehead and Storm Thorgerson will definitely get a mention.

Quote from The Science Fiction Encyclopedia ed. by Peter Nicholls (1979):
 
"With SF motifs pervading certain strata of popular music, SF and fantasy art has made formidable appearances on record album sleeves.  Here the name of Roger Dean commes immediately to mind; his striking compositions of machine, insect, animal and bone have convincing power."
 
I've tried this topic before, many moons ago, but didn't get much response, so I'll try again.  Dean aside, who are the best prog album cover artists (for artwork, not photography)?  Aside from Dean, Rodney Matthews, Patrick Woodroffe and Dave Rowe usually get my vote.
Psalm 69:6
