Argus, but it's not a knight. It's a Greek warrior (a hoplite, I believe).
But Argus is one of the most perfect albums ever recorded. There's not a bad second on it.
A TVR is not a car. It's a way of life.

I've got more bad news Paul - Argos stopped producing their catalogue a couple of years ago. LOL
I didn't know that, but what I do know is that Argos was founded by the same man who brought us Green Shield Stamps. I only discovered today that Argos was bought out by Sainsburys in 2016, which wasn't a good move as most Argos stores are due to close by 2024. Confused

I thought it was just an old bald guy starring at a chess board. My eyes must be worse than I thought.

Do chess knights count?

Romantic Warrior is my actual favourite, but Warrior On The Edge Of Time has the prettiest cover...

Correct - he's a tiny knight but he is definitely a knight killing a Gryphon

Gryphon's "ReInvention" also has a knight on the cover (of sorts - mythological)

Gone for Hawkwind from this list

Nope, because chess knights are little horses, not little people.
