I'm sure favorite albums have been talked about alot here, what about album covers just for the visual enjoyment?  Some of my favorites Cat Stevens albums, Mona Bone Jakon, Tea for the Tillerman, Teaser and the Firecat.  :)

The one that comes to mind at this minute is "Captain Fantastic & The Brown Dirt Cowboy" by Elton John. There's so much to look at on it, that it seems like I see something new every time.  :)

The Cars-Candy-O

   Back then?  ELO - A New World Record.  Neat album cover.  At around seven or eight years old I was an ELO freak.  I recall trying to draw this cover, freehand, many times.

   Now?  Dunno...

That Head East cover reminds me of that Foghat Rock and Roll one. A friend of mine and I spent a few minutes trying to figure it out...boulder and bun?...rock and bagel?...stone and bread?...ohhhh !

;D

;D...it really is a great LP too, zcrito ;)

I never listened to the group Ratt but they had a cover with a female on the cover in a suggestive pose that made me wanna buy the album just for the cover. Don't know the name of it. You guys have some psychodelic favs there- what about Zeppelin's Houses of the Holy? It's Weird also but a great band- maybe the best.
Hey R and R Fan- Sorry My Falcons beat up un your Broncos the other day- Truce?

I knew someone was going to list The Cars' Candy-O. And I figured it was only a matter of time before you gave a OP album cover.

Sorry about Ratt being in the wrong category. It was the bottom one where she was puling on or off her socks- that picture is worth a million sighs. Thanks I wish I could print it out. Some of the others are Hot too guys- Ohio Players -Honey!!!  Isn't Ohio beautiful? This is a great day huh R and R Fan? I am WIRED!!! Now If 80's Fan would send that little cartoon to me. Thanks guys.
