I'm a bit tired of the music, but i still stand by this cover. It is an underrated gem.

These are even better (OK, this is a tongue-in-cheek joke/tribute band but still...):

This is my favorite, and I'll stand behind the statement that it's also the BEST album cover ever.

(something about the clothes ... the hair ... the bold but simple logo ... the seeming offhandedness of the photo ... it's one of my favorite ever matches of cover and album ... i know we weren't supposed to consider the music here ... but part of what does it for me with any cover is the way it works with the contents.)

I thought it was already scientifically proven by various experts that THIS was the greatest album cover of all time.

So many crappy covers claimed as greatness. Perhaps 10% of the covers on this thread are worthy.

Kidding about the last one, but not this. My dad had this LP in his collection, and it fascinated me to no end when I was a child. Still does, in fact:
