Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson

Also, I was surprised that when 3D relief plates of album covers started to be made recently that they made Dark Side up, but not Animals. Surely that would have a made a more interesting plate? If they made one of Animals it would certainly be adorning my walls.

^ Not a problem.  I love the BBA cover as well as the Wait of Glory.  Can't wait to see what you come up with for the new one as well. 
 
 
If you ever get those prints out I will buy a couple!
 
 
 
 
Ken even updated my sig buffalo!

Smile
My favorite!!!
It's got to be slow
Taking love the only way
It's got to just flow
Making love and taking time to let it grow

I love Barney Bubbles' artwork for Hawkwind, especially In Search of Space and Space Ritual.

Of course, there are a good number of Roger Dean covers that were pretty striking, too, for Yes & Uriah Heep.


 
That is one of mine also. Clap
 
 
 I also like the POKR cover as well
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
This one goes back a few years but it is another good one:
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Of course for a more contemporary look nothing beats:

On the Special Edition there is a multimedia feature via Quicktime where they explain the influences musically for tying the artwork together with the album...quite interesting.
