Paladin's cover reminds me of the sleeve art for a good sci-fi novel. The easiest for me to access conceptually among the lot. Never heard the album though. Any good?
 
I'm also curious.  Is it a good album?

Decent hard rock with a proggy edge....

Oh...I went with the Greenslade cover  but they are all pretty nice.

Nice design on all of them. The Green Slade one has a spectacular use of color, so I voted for that one

Paladin ever so slightly over Octopus.
The full cover art for Octopus though is nothing short of breathtaking. Easily one of Dean's finest moments:

^ Looks fantastic opened up like that. But of course, the shading of the LP printing is lighter overall (it is on my version, Vertigo swirl copy)
I recall seeing Topographic (Yes) vinyl versions with *really* dark tones. Can't recall which pressing though.

Gosh how I loved this cover-art - great colours (blue/green/red) but whilst I enjoy their albums around it, I could not get into this one. I got rid of it in the 90's. Just the opening track resonated with me on any level. Love the debut and Happy Children especially, Heads and Osibirock not as much - and W(yaya just gave me the sh*ts..........go figure

Octopus art is legendary, but holy hell that Greenslade art!
