and who didn't have that one? https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.s2k...ff987c4ebd.png |
Lots of great ones on here already. I really like the Supertramp one as well. Listened to that whole album recently. This was one of my favorites growing up and still is:
http://www.newseum.org/wp-content/up...ic_WarPigs.jpg As someone who grew up in the eighties, I actually preferred the music of the late sixties and seventies. 'Paranoid' was ahead of its time as far as heavy music was concerned and this cover matched the sound. A mysterious, eccentric figure lost in the woods and terrified, perhaps an AWOL soldier from Vietnam after using drugs as mentioned in "Hand of Doom". |

[QUOTE=Kyras;24485069]^I remember it but wasn't a fan. I had a lot of The Cars though.
[QUOTE] back in my hifi days I used to see Ric Ocasek fairly regularly. He had a rather nice house,very discrete from the street but massive insigde. |
"Country Life" by Roxy. I managed to snag it when in first came out (1974) at college but it was soon replaced with a picture of the hedge; too controversial.

Loved the Cars album cover. And Vargas art is the ultimate in pinup. Let the good times roll.
I almost added Cheap Thrills because, well...Robert Crumb...and my avatar. Dark Side...ABSOLUTELY the most iconic cover ever. Hendrix did have some great covers. I especially like Are You Experienced. I haven't seen a Cream album cover in a VERY long time. Sunshine of Your Love was definitely a Strange Brew. Patty, I envy your Supertramp experience. Really tight band. I thought they probably put on a pretty good show. Very much like Yes but not quite as weird. Noodels, if I'd known we were going there, I would have added the cover for Blind Faith...the import one. Not because it's erotic...really it isn't unless you are 13. But it is very cool. I'm a little surprised the cover to Wish You Were Here hasn't come up yet. Ditto any Santana cover. |

In Search Of... was the cover I stared at for hours on end (while listening to the album, of course.)

No Rolling Stones Sticky Fingers? The Stones were always so subtle.
