Re: Favorite Album Covers...

[The best cover on that general theme might be Whitesnake's "Lovehunter" album. Featuring a drawing of a shapely naked lady riding a giant snake. Subtle, but it works... [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

The only album cover I really like looking at in detail is Maiden's "Somewhere In Time". There's so much going on in the picture...

Re: Favorite Album Covers...

I've always loved Faith No More's "Angel Dust":



I don't know if this is true of all printings, but my CD has the warning label *printed* on the cover. How lame is that? Such a shame, considering how pretty the photo is.

Other favorites:

Led Zep: Houses of the Holy
Van Halen: Women and Children First
Pink Floyd: Dark Side of the Moon
Rush: Permanent Waves

One of the things I miss about vinyl is the big artwork. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

In no order, some of my favorites....

Judas Priest - British Steel
Iron Maiden - Killers
Queen - Jazz (The cover was not overly special, however the insert merits list inclusion of this one)
Rush - Moving Pictures
Ozzy - Diary of a Madman (In the day this was notorious for me as I had the shirt and did I catch sh*t for the upside down cross at school, home !!!)
Motorhead - Bastards

Re: Favorite Album Covers...

A lot of my favourite album covers are those images which made a lasting impact on me digging through my parents' record collection when I was a kid.

Stuff like:
Meatloaf - Bat Out Of Hell
Fleetwood Mac - Rumours
Steve Miller Band - Book of Dreams
Mike Oldfied - Tubular Bells
Moody Blues - Question of Balance
Toto - IV

Of course, I've discovered plenty of cool covers on my own since then....
Iron Maiden - Live After Death. Liked it so much I had the poster on my bedroom wall as a kid.
Van Halen - Women & Children First
Living Colour - Vivid
Gary Moore - Victims of the Future
Megadeth - So Far So Good So What
Ozzy - Tribute (love that picture. One of the best ever)
Anthrax - Persistence of Time
Dio - Last in Line
DLR - Skyscraper
Angra - Rebirth
Scatterbrain - Here Comes Trouble
Tarot - Suffer Our Pleasures
Yngwie - Marching Out
