Maybe the winner in the multiple covers contest is From genesis to revelation, according to the genesis archives.

The Roger Dean Octopus cover is the Uk version, the other the US. Saame as the first 2 Yes covers.

I believe this is because of pirates and reeditions. we are talking (I think) of albums that were released simultaneously but with different covers in different countries. Focus's Moving Waves, Live At The Rainbow and 3 albums sported different covers across the pond! |

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

The original LP released by Decca had a black front cover with golden printing (band name and album title) in one corner - nothing exciting at all. |
