Sh Forum members-what are the best album covers all-time in rock n roll-think about it there have been some preety cool ones where the bands went out of their way to produce something unique.for example-Pink Floyd-Wish you were here-Blue shrink with the handshake sticker on the shrink,PIL-Metal Box-came in a silver metal box,Jefferson Airplane-Bark-Comes in a shopping bag-give us some other covers that you think are some of the best all time album covers,oh yeah-Rolling Stones-Satanic Majesties-3-D Cover.

My personal preferences would be;
Weather Report-Heavy Weather
Return to Forever-Romantic Warrior
Most YES albums (Roger Dean)
Most Moody Blues albums
But if I had to choose one it would be;
The Who-Tommy, or Blue Cheer-Vincebus Eruptum,
or Styx-The Grand Illusion, or The Beatles-Sgt Pepper, or, or, or, ..........................:confused:

We used to stare at this one a lot - "Baron von Tollbooth and the Chrome Nun" by Freiberg, Kantner and Slick after Jefferson Airplane broke up. Wonderful gate-fold sleeve with very groovy cut-away drawings of the human body etc.
