Was playing Spooky Tooth's Ceremony album for the first time in yonks the other day and was thinking, "Man, what an awful cover."
And Herbie Mann's Push Push (picture on previous page)....but you have to love those Ohio Player records....I have a few in the collection simply for the covers.

I like to feel the suspense when you're certain you know I am there.....

Hi,
Of all the covers Hipgnosis ever did, the one that I always thought was weird and strange was Capability Brown's album "Voice" ... which has the zipped lips.
On the inside of the fold out, the whole band is standing up and singing, but all of them have their eyes closed. And the album is folk/rock to its very best, and on their first album a killer version of "Liar". Considering the singing in the album, the shut lips is the opposite, and the closed eyes, I guess you could think that they are "into it"?
The stupidest, for my tastes, was the bunch of colored balls in that Nice album through the desert. Takes the definition of meaningless to the meaningless degree, I thought!

Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

I haven't listened to any Bjork yet (a mistake I'm soon to fix), but yeah, that cover always annoyed me for some reason. That face is soo punchable too.

Yup. Foxtrot is weird as f**k. But, you gotta love it though. ;)
