Best / worst album covers

[J_Dee]

I'd forgotten about this disaster. Thanks Rod Smallwood. XD

GnR's debut's a classic though:

 

[Mossip]

If you know, you know.

 

[WildcatFan1982]

I learned from Reddit that this album cover predicted 9/11. So screw you Supertramp, the blood of 3000 Americans is on your hands.

 

[Blu-ish]

 

[DreadLox]

Well, I like it.

My personal favorite. Especially after learning what Duane has hidden in his hands, and why the guys are cracking up.

Just a few:

 

[Get Buckets]

Worst "cover" of an entire album ever was the Bee Gees and Frampton re-doing Sgt.Pepper's. I am surprised that George Martin was involved in its production. The artwork is lame too. Aerosmith's version of Come Together is the only decent track IMO.

I remember being taken to the theater by my parents when that came out and being so confused. (And Aerosmith seemed like the scariest band I had ever seen.)

Great story about this one

 

[Nightwish84]

Plum awful:

Much better:

“Alex, I’ll Take Anal Bum Cover for $7,000.”

 

[Ryan Lemonds Hair]

Besmirch the Macho Man's name again and we will have a problem fella.

It's hard to beat Miles Davis' "Bitches Brew" and Mothers of Invention's "Weasels Ripped My Flesh." John Lennon's "Two Virgins" was fatuous, indulgent and ugly -- and not in a good way. And the original cover to Blind Faith's album released in England was creepy.
