OT: Classic Album Covers

Just got done reading a review of the Meatloaf musical "Bat Out of Hell" in the New Yorker. One paragraph was devoted to a description of the album's memorable artwork. Which got me thinking about other classic works. Off the top of my head:

1) Floyd. Dark Side of the Moon. Probably the most replicated of all time.
2) PE. It Takes a Nation of Millions... Title says it all from one of the most gifted lyricists of recent memory.
3) Nirvana. Never Mind. A couple of notches behind Floyd in iconography...

Others?

NOFX's Heavy Petting Zoo gets my vote every time. But the alternative cover and title of Eating Lamb is just as good.

Disraeli gears

one of my favorites … they say the name is a play on derailleur, and that Ginger Baker was a cyclist
