Here are some of mine, see attachments (l-r) Supertramp - Breakfast In America*; Yes - Tales From Topographic Oceans**; The Who - Who's Next; Peter Gabriel - Peter Gabriel (3); The Beatles - Let It Be***

Footnotes:
* The front cover is a mock Manhattan made from breakfast cutlery and crockery, and a waitress 'Statue Of Liberty' with a pint of OJ instead of a torch, as viewed from an airplane window. The back cover shows the five members of Supertramp eating breakfast in an American-style diner, and each band member is reading a newspaper from his home town (Oxford, Swindon, Manchester, Glasgow and Los Angeles)
** By Roger Dean
*** This is actually the cover of The Rutles classic final cut, "Let It Rot". Other albums of theirs include "Sgt. Rutters Only Darts Club Band", "A Hard Day's Rut", "Tragical History Tour", and "Shabby Road"

It's not your fault, Diego. I think "Top 5" is bit of a choir. I will change the title, so I can attract more posters. I've really been enjoying the artwork that guy's been posting here. 👍 Keep 'em coming!

 

[a6m5]

Robbie Williams - Millenium

Ocean Colour Scene - Profit in Peace

Charlatans(UK) - Forever

 

[Diego440]

This cover gave me nightmares when I was about 16



Deicide and their Trifixion project in the early 90s... the cover was "censored", since it didn't completely show three different upside down crosses, but the inlay featured a full poster of them!


I always liked this design, not because of the Satanism behind it, but because it's been so nicely done.

Utterly fantastic

 

[Diego440]

Funnily enough, I remember a6m5 had made this thread and I really liked it. When I saw that video I knew this was the perfect place for it... little did I know this thread was in oblivion

Took me a whole 15 minutes to find it!

 

[Flame-returns]
