What's your favorite album cover art ?

While re-organizing my album collection, I found myself admiring the quality and beauty of the album cover jacket. One artist that really caught my attention was Roger Dean who did all (most) of the YES cover jackets. You just don't get this quality of art on CD jewel case inserts. What are your favorite album cover jacket art?

The more I look at it, the more I love

Tears for Fears, "The Seeds of Love"

Such a snapshot of the bright and colorful late-80's/early-90's motif and so detailed in terms of symbolism and ideas!
