Your vote for greatest (covers) album

It’s possible there’s something terribly wrong with the school system. 😩

Wow!  

OK, London Calling = Elvis' first album cover

Ramons Acid = Greatfull Dead = Big Brother + Janis

Faithful = White Album

Many others show the artist(s) standing or sitting down.

Not sure what the "artistic" elements of that are, but to each his own.

I guess derivative covers are good, or are they "tributes" like London Calling?

Cheers!

"Caroline Now!" - The Songs of Brian Wilson and The Beach Boys

"Looking Into You" - A Tribute to Jackson Browne

The reverence that many of the participating artists have for the songs that they cover is palpable (YMMV). The Jackson Browne tribute was curated by overlooked and underrated singer/songwriter Jimmy LaFave (Austin, TX); and, Bob Ludwig does the mastering, so the sound quality is sterling.

"Stoned Side of The Mule" Gov't Mule
