Since I´ve just read your list I´ve realized Le Orme´s artwork
in Uommo di pezza it is very similar to Cathedral´s (the doom
metal band) some albums artwort. Check out.
The difference is that Le Orme were out there a lot of time before.

Yeah I know what you're talking about.  Those are some sweet covers too.
