Favorite Album Cover (picture or art on the cover)


As a follow up to my discussion about your favorite cover album since some posters asked or posted about the artwork or picture on the cover of the album.

Mine is the cover art on the Court of the Crimson King by King Crimson.  The stuff of nightmares.  

What is your favorite album cover?

@gemoody This is the album cover of the 1956 record, Ella & Louis, (Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong). It is perhaps one the finest records ever made, (IMHO). Ella and Louis are backed by Oscar Peterson and his trio: Herb Ellis guitar, Ray Brown bass, Buddy Rich drums. They cover standards and by this time in life, we all know the words or some of the melodies.

There is not a note wrong, a space wasted, a breath too breathy, this record is practically perfect. Now, I’m a jazzer and have been for a looooong time. But even so, this is a record that should be in every record collector’s collection.

Just my opinion.
