Hey All! I just wanted to start a thread because I'm curious as to what your favourite album covers are. I'll start the ball rolling by saying:
Uriah Heep - Magician's Birthday (by Roger Dean!)
Us & Them: Symphonic Music of Pink Floyd (by Roger Dean!)
Asia - debut (by Roger Dean!)
Roxy Music - debut (not by Roger Dean, but very cute!)

These are probably my favourites at the moment, and no doubt I'll have more favourites in the future, such as Yes' "Drama" and "Relayer"...anyway, post your favourites!

Yes's TALES FROM TOPOGRAPHIC OCEANS is my favorite one - it's on the screen of my home PC. Also I really like RELAYER, FRAGILE and Anderson's OLIAS OF SUNHILLOW covers.

But don't forget about Peter Gabriel's 2nd and 3rd album covers, Grateful Dead's AOXOMOXOA and Beatles's SGT.PEPPER...

I quite like Yes' "Time and a Word", the black and white one that I think is on the most recent reissue.

Rob, it is OK.  It is kind of a running joke around here about reoccuring themes.  Post away all you want and so what if it is repeated someone will let you know.

Excuse me young man. We here at the Prog Archive forum find your use of the word, "boobies" to be degrogatory, inflamatory, degrading and all together chauvinistic.
