Who is the best album artist? I can only think of two right now, Roger Dean and Hipgnosis. Which one (or other artist) is better? |

Storm Thurguson, (however you spell his last name), he did some preety imaginative stuff. Roger Dean as you mentioned is great too. ------------- We got to pump the stuff to make us tough from the heart Its astart What we need is awareness we cant get careless Mental self defensive fitness Make everybody see in order to fight the powers that be |

Thurguson still does stuff, I think. Didn't he do the cover to Frances the Mute? ------------- My recent purchases:

| Whose that guy who did the cover for Lateralus, he has some cool stuff. All his artworks makes like a story when you look at it all together. Cool. All the people are like weird skeleton people too. |

Tom Thial who did the cover art for Symphony X's The Odyssey is damn impressive, who did the cover for Sym X's V though? ------------- Spending more than I should on Prog since 2005

Giger was pretty impressive with his artwork on Brain Salad Surgery, even if someone else had to airbrush the offending willy near his wife's mouth, into a shaft of light. ------------- ..and i knew that she seen me, because she dropped her bikini, the one that i got her, in Rome. |

I thought he died, a few months ago. If he did do that cover, it had to be his last. ------------- We got to pump the stuff to make us tough from the heart Its astart What we need is awareness we cant get careless Mental self defensive fitness Make everybody see in order to fight the powers that be |

Travis Smith is the man! Blackwater Park cover is my favorite of all time, very haunting and deep...  ------------- Progressive music, a kind of life. |
