Favorite album covers

Simple as that.
the first impression of the album is the cover art.
So which is yours?

Mine is 1999, it is a complete trip. I can pick it up and find something new on it every time. It looks really cool. I think the trippy pasted together, hand drawn look fits the album too, for some reason.

gyro34	My fav is the lovesexy cover. I love how Prince's nakedness is sexy and spiritual at the same time. The soulful sweetness in his eyes is the first thing that got my attention the first time I saw this album at Borders. It is how he's looking up to God, and how his right hand is resting at the center of his chest...uhm, there's so much that makes me sigh.

Co-sign both of those - and add Parade and SOTT, which are unmistakable and iconic.

The Black Album, what more can I say, i could stare at it for hours on end

If it were not for insanity, I would be sane.

Really?

When the album was released it was rumoured that his head was shrunk by a third to make it look more in proportion to his body.

It wasn't until I met him face to face that I was inclined to agree!!!!

My faves are Controversy and Around the world in a day and Parade.

I liked the way that all the singles covers from ATWIAD were enlarged parts of the album cover.

Life's a Parade! LoveLife, LoveSexy!
