Only one error; the "H" in "Himmel" has to be capitalized. Nouns begin with a capital letter in German. Of course your sentences are ellipses only; there are no verbs in them (but for the auxiliary verb "ist"), which makes it easier.

Basically all Anthony Phillips covers are outstanding!

Also:

Hawkind - Warrior on the edge of time

Gnidrolog - Lady Lake

Uriah Heep - Demons & Wizards

and several from Barclay James Harvest!

I guess my favorite cover artists are Roger Dean (how could he not be...?) but mostly Hipgnosis, the work he did for the Floyd covers and Genesis Lamb is nothing short of genius for me

He also worked for Zero Hour, a Prog MetalGroup:

and this one is inside of a Katatonia Booklet, I love it:

I've always found the cover sleeve of Supertramp's "Crisis? What crisis?" very funny, and I like "Even inthe quietest moments" a lot, too.

Hmm...

I love the Roger Dean stuff, it kinda has defined prog. Also some others you may not know, like the alternate Octopus cover by GG, the first (at least) by Osibisa, a great Anglo-African rhythm band in the mold of Santana, Greenslade's first few, just to name a few.

The Gieger (sp?) Brain Salad cover also rules (I know its no Love Beach but...)

Hugh Syme (Rush) has been mentioned, good stuff.

Hypgnosis did all the classic Floyd if I'm not mistaken, also good.

May not be prog in your eyes (it is in mine), but love the Mastodon-Leviathan cover.

But my all time faves are Aenima and especially the transparency cover for Lateralus by Tool, and sorry, but I'm far too lazy to look up who did those.

Not prog but love all the Pedro Bell Funkadelic covers.

P.S. Also like the dude who did the bulk of the Ozrics covers.

Is this my problem? I don't see the covers!  Maybe you could just give me the title, then I'll find it myself...

Go to http://www.the-masque.com/maiden1.html.

Thanks! I like the artwork for the Wickerman and Live At Donnington, but I still prefer The 'original' Eddies from Derek Riggs!!!

But we're not talking about prog anymore!
