Have U ever bought an LP because of the cover art?


I was talking to a friend who was telling me that he got into various artists because the LP cover was interesting, have you ever bought something for the same reason?

I guess that one can receive authorization from the label to use a "controversial" ( especially for back then ) type of cover art on the LP when one owns the record label : )

How many of you folks knew that Herb Albert was the "A" in A&M ??? Sean

My Mom gave me a copy of the Dead's "Europe 72" for Christmas one year because she liked the cover. The Ice Cream Kid. That was 30 something years ago and it changed my life forever.
Sean,

Being a trumpet player, of course I know & knew (way back in the 60's) that Herb is the A in A&M (Moss being the M).

Do you know the name of the lady that posed on the cover? And did you know that she was pregnant for the shoot? 2 points for those that guess how many months.
Shventus, I don't want to hear that she was pregnant, please say you were lying.
