These are great. I have many of the same ones and wish I had a couple of yours for my collection. I still have all my albums and my kids both want to inherit them some day! I keep shopping the thrift stores picking a few gems now and then. I always take a break to read your articles. Thanks!

I remember most of these. Those were the days... Though at the time I paid more attention to the music and not the artwork. I realize now how much creativity was involved and how the covers helped to sell the albums.
But its so hard to separate the music I liked inside vs. the design!
But here's a couple for you that introduced me to illustrators I probably never would have known or learned about if it wasn't for the fact they graced a few albums in their time! Yes (Roger Dean) and Molly Hatchet (Frank Frazetta) sure they are commonly known now but they were all so new to me back then.
