@SumKindaMunster That one or the dudes on the road crossing. I can't think of any other...Maybe Nirvana's with the swimming toddler but it's still not as iconic as these.

@SumKindaMunster album cover art is a lost art form. Such a shame. On some psychological level it enhanced the music.

@RuyLopez At one time, I had all their albums and 8=tracks. Slowly they all disappeared. I think I still have KISS LIVE, 1 and 2, on cassette. 🙂

@maskedbandit I had this one on LP and Cassette! My apartment flooded in college and I lost my entire collection. 🤨
@TrashCat This one’s really popular. At least three people chose it.

"Yesterday and Today is remembered primarily for the controversy surrounding its original cover image. Known as the "butcher cover", it was taken by photographer Robert Whitaker and shows the band dressed in white coats and covered with decapitated baby dolls and pieces of raw meat. Although the photo was intended to be part of a larger work critiquing the adulation afforded the Beatles, the band members insisted it was a statement against the Vietnam War. Others interpreted it as the Beatles protesting the record company's policy of "butchering" their albums for the North American market. In response to retailers' outrage at the gory subject matter, Capitol immediately withdrew the LP and replaced the cover image with a shot of the band posed around a "steamer" trunk."

@Azlotto And if you have either that one above or a paste-over, you have a pretty valuable record. Actually, that one in the picture is a mono copy--a stereo one is worth even more due to its rarity.
Azlotto · M
@uncalled4 I have a paste-over one.
uncalled4 · 56-60, M
@Azlotto Wow! Excellent! I never got my hands on one. You're lucky.

Nirvana's 'Nevermind' (sorry can't be bothered to upload) always struck me as being impactful. Not listened to the music though.
