^I didn't just find these on the net, I actually bought them in the seventies. Fortunately I knew the bands beforehand. I would never have bought them based on their covers.

this is still the worst.. and most disturbing prog album cover ever...

who stole the real Fripp?... the only thing more capable of throwing my music world view completely out of orbit would have been the (thankfully never done) Sylvian Waters album with Roger smiling and dancing with a budweiser in one hand and a hot red head in the other.

yep almost as bad as this.

Well... Miriodor is a cool band and I the the music itself in Mekano is great but they really could have chosen a better cover.

Not posting it ... but the winner would have to be Peter Cook and Dudley Moore's Ad Nauseum .... might be listed under Derek and Clive ... and it is very progressive stuff ... music that is above the norm and comedy above the norm!
Comedy? Dean, do these folks know anything about Derek and Clive? |
On the subject of comedy, I believe the Monty Python guys should be considered to be prog. Sketches that link into each other instead of having a punchline ending, surreal imagery, concept albums & films, songs featuring vikings and space, and being quoted onstage by Jethro Tull.
