AI's got preconceived ideas. LOL

What can I say? Hug

In any case, if you took away the pentagram, it would be a pretty cool cover. Especially because the central character looks a lot like Ozzy.

Why not?

Also, it wouldn't be the first time? Relayer?

Anyway, that's all for now. I just wanted to get them all out there. Might add more later.

I know they're not exactly prog but here are some Journey covers:

I think Astra is a good album, I've always liked it. The cover is very sci-fi. Big smile

I think it's one of the best album covers Roger Dean ever did. It has such a story to it.

Some Yes covers, not really trying to be like anything they had before.

This one has an awesome logo, in my opinion:

A couple of ASIA albums (even though I don't think they were that good, but they had great covers... I own a mint Japanese first pressing of ASTRA purely for the cover)

I did some ABWH covers and decided to keep a Roger Dean style but go for something completely unique.

The first one here is the best one, imo. Sadly, AI screwed up the logo, but the image is top knotch.

I like your AI generated covers espcially the Greenslade series.
Any ideas for King Crimson covers....?

Playing with the madman theme of their first.

I would like to see any Gentle Giant 'lost' album covers! Smile

I gave it a try

I imagine this album being called "Dropping By for Lunch." It screwed up the text, though Cry

Here are a few random individual ones I did.

The Love album cover is quite possibly the most beautiful I've generated. It doesn't fit with any of their previous album covers but I just think it's sublime.





I imagine this Rush album came out in the 90s where Rush decided to totally go back to their prog roots.

That's probably down to me and my tastes. I'm sure you could generate all manor of styles. I'll show some Yes ones later that are totally different from these and from any actual Yes albums.

You could start a game where people have to figure out what the blank (______) prompts were.

ELP, titled "The Risk of Reaching Higher Ground"

I actually already did an ELP one, here below.

The AI is not good enough to reproduce so much text, which is why I'm not adding album titles. It's better to have a short word as a logo, and even then it gets it wrong. Sometimes it produces an amazing picture but the logo is all wonky.



Again, I'm not trying to make it look like past albums, so don't tell me it doesn't look like an ELP album. Just try to play along and imagine what it might possibly sound like!
Thanks Adam. I have no expectations or criticisms. Was just curious how much the 'directorial' text would influence the image. I do see a strong similarity in style to all the covers it generates.

Ok, moving on...

Here are the results of a command for a Uriah Heep album
