Relayer, followed closely by CTTE and TFTO.

I put this in the Polls section when I created it.  I didn't move it here.  

If no one else can vote then I guess my hard work putting it together was a waste.

Exactly. Too bad the poll was ruined.

If I was allowed to vote I would vote for Yessongs.  To me this is the best album artwork of all and i am very surprised that it has no votes so far.

Relayer - which is probably the best painting Roger Dean ever did.

I thought Yessongs was a brilliant cover. The original triple LP was packaged superbly.
 
Close to The Edge is simple, yet defines the group/Reoger Dean collaboration instantly.
 
And just to be different, - I remember reading a review of Going For The One, maybe in Sounds where it described the bloke on the front farting.............

I vote for Relayer. Fragile puts up a good fight. And if CTTE had the inside picture on the front instead, it'd be a contender as well. Pretty much any Dean Yes work of the '70s is gold though. The later ones are good too (Keys to Ascension, Union, et al) but I like his '70s work best.

Tormato is amusing in its own way as well.

I think I have to go with Tales. Very vibrant and colorful, but mysterious as well.

Had to go with Union. Despite the lackluster album contained within, the artwork is gorgeous.

Honorable mentions to Yesterdays, Drama, both Keys, and the Yesyears box.

Tales From Topographic Oceans, but Drama and Relayer come close.

It's got to be Going For The One. Nothing beats the balls of putting a dude' sbare buttocks on the cover.

I think we maybe can all agree that Tormato was the worst though. That one actually scares me.
